Regular Clean vs Deep Clean

Not sure which clean to book? Here’s the difference between a regular clean and a deep clean, and when each one makes sense.

The short answer

A regular clean keeps your home up at the frequency you choose. A deep clean is a full reset, with all surfaces wet wiped and dried and stainless steel stripped.

Book a deep clean when

  • It’s your first clean with us, or your home hasn’t had a professional clean in a while
  • You’re starting recurring service and want a clean slate first
  • It’s time for a seasonal reset, like spring cleaning
  • Service has been paused for more than six weeks

Book a regular clean when

  • Your home is already in good shape and you want to keep it there
  • You’d like a set schedule: weekly, bi-weekly or monthly
  • You want the same standard every visit, with your preferences on file

Moving or renovating?

Neither one is quite right. A move-in or move-out clean is for an empty home, inside cabinets and closets included. A clean after renovations or construction is its own service again, because fine dust settles everywhere.
