The 3 Types Of Cleans

The Deep Clean

Deep Clean 

This is a very detailed and thorough cleaning. This is a cleaning provided at all first-time cleanings and periodically, room at a time for maintenance. This information will be in the Jobber and will let you know when it’s time to focus more attention on certain rooms. 

When we deep clean we are scrubbing grout, washing baseboards, moving small furniture and detail sweeping underneath, spot cleaning walls,  removing all smudges and fingerprints and washing down cabinet fronts. On shelving and flat surfaces you will move all items to clean and dust thoroughly underneath, dusting and wiping off bath and beauty product containers, picture frames, decor, knick-knacks, wine bottles, lampshades, and more… Our Deep Cleaning method is an all-around, head to toe, extreme eye for detail Cleaning.

The 3 Types Of Cleans

The Standard Clean

This is the Cleaning we do most often, especially in Kitchens and baths. This is also a thorough cleaning method but less detail work will be required and you will move quickly and systematically. 

 

You will lightly dust high to low, moving only large and easily moved items. You will wipe down or dust all surfaces, clean mirrors and spot clean windows, clean the inside of the microwave, clean stovetops, scour out sinks, magic eraser baths, showers, tubs and bathroom sinks. Sanitizing toilets and bathroom floors. Thoroughly sweep and mop all floors, and neatening and tidying all areas of the home while making sure that all spaces are left in photo-op shape. Looking their best, smelling their best and feeling their best.

The Quick Clean

Many Clients have rooms in their homes that they don’t wish to have too much time spent on. When conducting our initial Meet and Greets with our client they will often say things like “Don’t worry too much about this space” or “Just do a quick cleaning in this space”. So that’s exactly what we do. A Quick cleaning.

This is also something that we do if time is limited and we are focusing the majority of our attention on other spaces with our deep cleaning method. 

We will only “Quick Clean” a space if the client is aware of the time constraint and wants us to focus our energy in other rooms. This way they are not disappointed that the job was not thoroughly done. 

 

Just because its a “quick Clean” doesn’t mean it is done poorly. In a quick clean the paper towel and some warm soapy water will be your best friend. You can move quickly from room to room, wiping up dirt and debris and leaving things smelling fresh and clean, in just a matter of minutes. 

A “Quick Clean” consists of a quick dusting, quick wipe down of all surfaces (not moving things), and sweeping and mopping of floors. Once again, a bucket of soapy water and a damp rag will help you move quickly in these situations. On your hands and knees, you can wipe down a floor and work your way out of the room in lightning speed. 

 

In a Quick Clean 

DO NOT:

Move small items when dusting or sweeping

Spend time sweeping under furniture

Spend time on Details
