Deep cleaning: what's included and what it costs
A deep clean tackles the build-up a regular clean skips — skirtings, tiles and grout, inside appliances and the spots that get missed week to week.
What it usually includes
- Everything in a regular clean
- Skirting boards, door frames and switches
- Detailed bathroom work — tiles, grout, glass
- Inside appliances by arrangement
- Reachable window sills and tracks
What it often excludes
- Bond-clean guarantees (that's an end-of-lease clean)
- Exterior windows at height
- Carpet steam cleaning unless quoted separately

Frequently asked questions
How much more does a deep clean cost than a regular clean?
A deep clean usually takes roughly 1.5–2× as long as a regular clean, so the cost scales with that extra time. Use the calculator for an indicative range.
