A clean home is about appearance, comfort, health, and peace of mind. Learn more about our residential cleaningservices that ensure your home remains spotless and comfortable.

To make a home a truly comfortable one requires ongoing commitment with daily, weekly and monthly cleaning routines. However, when life gets busy, deep cleaning often gets pushed aside.

While regular house cleaning keeps the day-to-day under control, a deep clean gets into all the spots that are usually missed.



So how often should you schedule a deep clean for your home? Let’s break it down.

Deep Clean v/s Regular Cleaning: A Complete Guide

Regular cleaning is basically handling the daily surface mess which includes the basics: dusting, mopping floors, vacuuming, wiping surfaces, and general tidying. It's mostly part of daily, weekly or fortnightly cleaning schedules.

A deep clean, on the other hand, targets areas that aren’t part of your regular cleaning and usually handles the hidden dirt and grime that build ups over time. This includes:

  • Cleaning the oven and fridge
  • Vacuuming mattresses and frames of beds and sofas to remove dust and mites
  • Pressure cleaning outdoor areas
  • Scrubbing and sanitising toilet seats and behind appliances
  • Window sills, window cleaning, and polishing taps
  • Carpet steam cleaning and deep carpet cleaning
  • Cleaning ceiling fans, lights and air vents
  • Cleaning garage and storage areas
  • Washing walls and removing mould
  • Detail cleaning tiles and behind the furniture

As deep cleaning services go beyond the surface, it is usually time intensive. It’s the kind of clean that resets your space and helps maintain a healthy, sparkling house with long-term hygiene benefits.

How Often Should You Book a Deep Clean?

Everyone has their own schedule and lifestyle. Before booking a deep clean service you must self aware of availability, household size, and cleaning requirements. On the basis of these you can book in:

Every few weeks:

Busy homes, especially with kids or pets, benefit from a deep clean every 3–4 weeks. Dust, grime, and bacteria can build up quickly.

Once a month or seasonally:

For smaller homes or apartments, a monthly or quarterly spring cleaning is often enough to stay on top of hidden dirt.

End of lease clean or before guests:

A deep clean is essential for an end of lease clean to meet inspection standards. Our end of lease cleaning services ensure nothing is missed.
