When you book a professional cleaning in Sacramento, you'll usually be asked if you want a Standard Clean or a Deep Clean. But what's the actual difference?
A standard clean is for maintaining a home that is already relatively clean. A deep clean is a restorative service designed to remove heavy buildup, grime, and dust from hard-to-reach areas.
What's Included in a Deep Clean?
At Uplevel Cleaning, our deep cleaning service includes everything in a standard clean, plus detailed attention to the following areas:
- Baseboards and Trim: Hand-wiped to remove dust and scuffs.
- Doors and Door Frames: Wiped down to remove fingerprints and dust.
- Window Sills and Tracks: Scrubbed to remove dirt and dead bugs.
- Cabinet Fronts: Hand-wiped in the kitchen and bathrooms to remove grease and drips.
- Heavy Buildup Removal: Extra scrubbing on shower grout, tub rings, and stovetops.
- Inside Appliances: The inside of the microwave is included, and you can add the inside of the fridge or oven as needed.
When Should You Book a Deep Clean?
We highly recommend a deep clean if:
- Your home hasn't been professionally cleaned in the last 3 months.
- You are preparing to host a major event or holiday.
- You are starting a new recurring cleaning service (start with a deep clean to get the home to baseline, then maintain it with standard cleans).
