Many homeowners aren’t sure whether they need a standard cleaning or a deep cleaning.

A standard cleaning focuses on maintaining your home’s cleanliness through routine tasks such as vacuuming, mopping, dusting, and bathroom sanitation.

A deep cleaning goes much further by removing hidden dirt, disinfecting neglected areas, cleaning baseboards, light fixtures, vents, behind furniture, and tackling stubborn buildup.

If it’s been several months since your last professional cleaning, a deep cleaning is usually the best place to start.
