Cleaning your home is essential, but not all cleaning is the same. Have you ever wondered what the difference is between a standard cleaning and a deep cleaning? While both keep your space fresh, deep cleaning tackles the hidden grime that builds up over time.
If you’re unsure whether you need a basic cleaning or it’s time for a deep clean, this guide breaks it all down—including what’s included in each and when to book one.
What is Standard Cleaning?
✅ Best for: Regular maintenance and keeping your home tidy.
✅ How often? Weekly, biweekly, or monthly.
What’s Included in a Standard Cleaning?
• Dusting (surfaces, furniture, and shelves)
• Wiping down countertops and tables
• Sweeping, vacuuming, and mopping floors
• Cleaning and disinfecting sinks, faucets, and bathroom surfaces
• Emptying trash bins
• Light tidying up
Who Needs It?
A standard cleaning is perfect if:

✔ You don’t have time for regular cleaning but want a consistent schedule.
What is Deep Cleaning?
✅ Best for: Removing built-up grime, allergens, and bacteria.
✅ How often? Every 3-6 months or before special occasions.
