House cleaning
Deep house cleaning in Birmingham
A deep clean is the one that gets behind things. We take the extra hours to reach inside the oven and fridge, scrub grout, hand-wipe baseboards and vents, and clean the parts of a home a routine visit never has time for. Most clients book one as a first clean, then move to a lighter recurring visit to hold the line.

Questions
Common questions
How is a deep clean different from a standard clean?
A standard clean maintains a home already in good shape and focuses on what you see and touch. A deep clean adds the hidden work — inside appliances, grout, baseboards, vents and behind furniture — and takes two to three times as long. The price difference is the extra hours, not a markup.
How often should I book a deep clean?
Once or twice a year for most homes, plus one at the start if you're new to a cleaning service. Homes with pets, small children or heavy cooking usually benefit from a quarterly deep clean instead.
Do you clean inside cupboards and cabinets?
Cabinet and cupboard fronts are always included. Interiors are an add-on — tell us when you book so we can allow the extra time rather than rushing the rest of the house.
Is a deep clean worth it if my house already looks clean?
Usually yes, once. A home can look clean while grout, appliance interiors and baseboards carry a year of buildup. One deep clean resets the baseline, and every visit after it is cheaper and faster.
