A deep clean creates a solid foundation for maintaining a cleaner home moving forward, whether you continue with recurring service or simply want a one-time reset.
What Is A Deep Cleaning?
A deep cleaning is a more detailed and thorough service than a routine cleaning.
While recurring cleaning focuses on maintaining areas that are regularly cleaned, a deep cleaning addresses built-up dust, dirt, grime, and neglected areas that require extra time and attention.
Many customers choose a deep cleaning when:
- Their home hasn’t been professionally cleaned in quite some time
- They’re preparing for holidays or guests
- They’re moving into a home
- They’re getting ready to sell a home
- Life has become too busy to keep up with detailed cleaning
- They want to start recurring cleaning with a fresh baseline

Does My Home Need A Deep Cleaning?
Not necessarily.
Many homes are perfectly suited for a standard one-time cleaning or recurring cleaning service.
We don’t believe in recommending a deep cleaning unless it’s truly needed.
In fact, many customers use our online booking system and receive an accurate price for a standard cleaning because their home simply doesn’t require the additional work involved in a deep clean.
A deep cleaning is usually recommended when a home has significant buildup, heavy dust accumulation, neglected areas, or cleaning challenges that require substantially more time and detail.
If we’re ever unsure, we’ll discuss the condition of the home with you before beginning work. Clear communication is always our priority.

1) They were very personable.
2) They had extraordinary flexibility for what we wanted to have cleaned (and not cleaned).
3) They did not require an expensive “deep clean” during their first visit.
4) The pricing and scheduling options were very reasonable.
As a client, we have been very happy with the services A Clean Slate has provided. Some areas where they excel:
1) Easy to communicate with if there is a need to reschedule or make minor modifications to what areas need cleaned.
2) Receptive to cleaning concerns and they have adjusted accordingly.
3) They avoid lemon scented products at our house because they remind my spouse of being ill as a child. :)
