CHOOSING A SERVICE
Regular clean or deep clean?
A practical way to choose the right starting point for your home.
Start with the condition, not the calendar.
A regular clean maintains a home that is already reasonably kept. It focuses on accessible surfaces, kitchen and bathroom fixtures, dusting and floors. A deep clean allows more time for detail work and built-up residue.
The right choice depends on how the home looks today. A small apartment that has not had a detailed clean in months may need more time than a larger house that is maintained every week.
What a regular clean usually covers.
Think of the places you use every day: kitchen counters, sink and appliance exteriors; bathroom fixtures; accessible furniture surfaces; and suitable floors. Tidying large amounts of clutter is different from cleaning and should be discussed separately.
- Everyday kitchen and bathroom surfaces
- Accessible dusting
- Vacuuming and mopping suitable floors
- Routine household-bin emptying
When a deep clean makes more sense.
Choose a deep-cleaning discussion when you want attention to reachable baseboards, doors, edges, fittings and built-up residue. It is also a useful starting point before recurring maintenance.
Deep cleaning does not automatically mean every possible task is included. Oven interiors, fridge interiors, windows, carpets and upholstery should still be named in the request.
What to send when asking for a quote.
Include your city or postal code, approximate floor area, bathrooms, the last time the space was cleaned and the areas you want prioritised. Photos of problem areas can help make the scope more accurate.
Mention sensitive finishes and product preferences. Cleaning cannot reverse worn coatings, damaged stone, failed sealant or permanent staining, so material condition matters as much as the cleaning method.
