Cover All Corners: A Deep House Cleaning Checklist

What is included in a deep house cleaning

Your home may not be able to text you, but if it could, it’d probably say something like: “Hey, I’m feeling a little neglected. Can we talk?” Sometimes, your space needs more than a surface wipe-down, and that’s where deep cleaning comes in—the ultimate TLC for your home. Let’s dive into what it includes and why it’s worth the effort!

What Does “Deep Cleaning” Mean?

Deep cleaning goes beyond the surface cleaning and tidying. It is what your home would have liked to ask for. Imagine it as a spa day for your space. While regular cleaning keeps your home clean, deep cleaning takes care of dirt, grime, and all that build-up you don’t see each day.

Benefits of a Deep Clean:

  • A healthier living environment–goodbye allergens and germs.
  • Fresher air–your nostrils will thank you.
  • A sparkling home that’s easier to maintain.

What’s Included in a Deep House Cleaning?

So, what’s on the deep cleaning checklist? Here’s the breakdown:

All Areas

No corner left behind! A deep clean covers every room with the following:

  • Dust and wipe all surfaces
  • Vacuum and mop floors
  • Clean tables and chairs
  • Clean mirrors and fixtures
  • Clean doors and cabinet surfaces
  • Baseboard dusting
  • Empty trash from the kitchen and bathrooms

Kitchen

The heart of your home deserves some extra love, so:

  • Dust and wipe all surfaces
  • Clean the sink
  • Clean exterior of the microwave and appliances
  • Vacuum and mop floors
  • Wipe and clean kitchen surfaces
  • Clean the outside of the fridge and oven
  • Clean doors and cabinet surfaces

Bathroom

Bathrooms: these spaces handle the messiest parts of life–don’t they deserve a bit of sparkle in return? Here’s what you can do:

  • Dust and wipe all surfaces
  • Clean sinks
  • Clean toilets
  • Clean countertops

How Long Does a Deep House Cleaning Take?

Let’s face the facts: Deep cleaning is all about time. It’s no sprint but more like a marathon. Depending on a home’s size and just how deep you want to dig in, it may take you anywhere from 4 to 8 hours.

However, if you’re a perfectionist, a deep clean will take as long as you’re satisfied with your scrubbing and wiping.

How Often Should You Have a Deep Clean?

If you’ve never had your house professionally cleaned, or if it’s been more than a month since the last cleaning, it is probably time. As for maintenance, try a deep clean every 3 to 6 months—or whenever you’re feeling overwhelmed by dust bunnies.
