Our deep clean goes well past a regular visit. We move what can be moved, reach what normally gets skipped and bring every room back to a proper clean.
Ideal before a special occasion, after a busy season, or as the first visit before regular cleaning starts.

When a deep clean makes sense
A regular clean keeps on top of the week. A deep clean deals with everything a weekly routine never quite reaches: the grease film on top of kitchen units, the grout that has darkened, the dust behind the radiators and the limescale creeping up the shower screen.
People book a deep clean at the change of seasons, before family comes to stay, after a busy spell at work, before putting a home on the market, or before starting regular cleaning so the routine begins from a clean base. It is also a good fit after a long winter with the windows closed, when dust and condensation have built up in every room.
If you are not sure whether you need a deep clean or a regular one, look at the places that are easy to ignore: the top of the fridge, the hinges of the toilet seat and the tracks of sliding doors. If they have not been touched in months, a deep clean is the place to start.
What our cleaners do in each room
In the kitchen, the team degreases worktops, the extractor and splashbacks, cleans the outside of every appliance and, where it is safe and accessible, behind and beside them. Cupboard doors, handles and plinths are wiped, and the sink and taps are descaled.
Bathrooms are descaled from top to bottom, with grout scrubbed and the toilet cleaned inside, outside and around the base. In bedrooms and living areas we work down from high to low: skirting boards, doors, frames and radiators, then light switches, sockets and door handles sanitised. Sofas and chairs are vacuumed and cushions plumped, and every floor is vacuumed and mopped last.
How a deep clean differs from other services
A deep clean is designed for a home that is lived in, so it works around your furniture and belongings rather than assuming an empty property. That is the main difference from end of tenancy cleaning, which covers the inside of every appliance and cupboard as standard because the agent will open all of them.
With a deep clean, you choose. Cleaning inside cupboards and drawers is available on request, and you can add the inside of the oven for £45, the inside of the fridge and freezer for £25 and interior windows for £25. That way you are not paying for areas you keep on top of yourself.
Compared with a regular clean, a deep clean also spends longer in each room, because the team works on detail: grout lines, radiator tops, door frames and the backs of taps.
Prices, timings and extras
Deep cleaning is priced by property size: studio £129, 1 bedroom £159, 2 bedrooms £199, 3 bedrooms £249, 4 bedrooms £299 and 5+ bedrooms £359. Most deep cleans take 3–7 hours, depending on the size of the home and how long it has been since the last thorough clean.
Other extras include carpet cleaning at £30 per room, an extra bathroom at £25, blinds at £8 per window, wall spot-cleaning at £35, a balcony or patio at £20 and a sofa refresh at £45. The total is shown before you confirm, with no surprises on the day.
What most affects the length of the visit is the number of bathrooms, how much furniture there is to work around, whether you have added the oven, and whether surfaces are clear when the team arrives.
Preparing a lived-in home
You do not need to clean before the cleaners arrive, but clearing worktops, bathroom shelves and bedside tables lets the team spend their time cleaning rather than moving things. Put away valuables, paperwork and anything fragile you would rather not have handled.
Let us know about surfaces that need special care, such as natural stone, unsealed wood or a high-gloss kitchen, so the right product goes on each one. If you have pets, mention them in your booking notes, and keep them in a separate room while the team works if they are nervous around vacuums.
If you are working from home, choose a room for yourself and we will clean it either first or last, so you can carry on with as little disruption as possible.
Common problems and how we handle them
Kitchen grease is the most common: it sits on cabinet tops, the extractor and the wall behind the hob, and it needs a degreaser and time to soften rather than hard scrubbing. Discoloured grout is scrubbed with a stiff brush and the right cleaner, although grout that has stained deep into the surface may only lighten.
Pet hair collects along skirting boards, under beds and in upholstery, so we vacuum those areas first and wipe down afterwards. In hard water areas, limescale on taps, screens and shower heads is softened and lifted in stages so chrome and glass keep their finish.
Keeping your home this way
If anything on the checklist has been missed, tell us within 72 hours and we will come back to re-clean it free. Many customers follow a deep clean with regular domestic cleaning, so the result lasts and the next deep clean is quicker. You can book again in one tap from your account.
Between visits, a quick wipe of the hob after cooking and a squeegee on the shower screen after use will slow down the two biggest sources of build-up: grease and limescale.
