A regular or maintenance clean keeps an already-clean home in good shape: surfaces, floors, bathrooms, kitchen, and dusting at eye level. A deep clean resets the home. It adds the detail work that builds up over months — grout scrubbing, baseboards by hand, inside the microwave, cabinet fronts, blinds, window sills, ceiling fans, vent covers, and cleaning behind and under movable appliances and furniture. A deep clean typically takes two to three times as long as a maintenance clean of the same home.
