Deep cleaning for everything everyday cleaning misses
Shower glass with a haze, dust lining the baseboards, a ceiling fan you stopped looking at. A deep clean resets the whole house from top to bottom.
Deep cleaning vs. regular house cleaning
A regular visit keeps a clean house clean. A deep clean is slower and more hands-on: surfaces are wiped by hand instead of dusted, baseboards are washed instead of swept, and buildup gets real scrubbing time.
Pricing starts at $300 for a 2,500 sq ft, 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath home and goes up with size and condition. We'll give you a firm number by phone before we book.
On top of the standard checklist, a deep clean adds
- Detailed hand-wiping of surfaces throughout
- Baseboards wet-wiped, not just dusted
- Blinds dusted on both sides
- Ceiling fans wiped down
- Soap scum and hard-water buildup worked off glass and tile
- Kitchen touchpoints, cabinet fronts and appliance exteriors detailed
Popular add-ons: inside the fridge ($45), inside the oven ($45), interior windows (from $5/pane).
When to book a deep cleaning in Carmel and Hamilton County
After an Indiana winter
Months of salt, slush and closed windows leave a gray film on entry floors, door glass and baseboards. A spring deep clean clears it out before pollen season starts.
Before guests or a party
Hosting Thanksgiving, a graduation open house or out-of-town family? Pre-guest and event cleanings run $295 to $360.
Before listing a home
Buyers notice grimy grout and dusty fans in photos and showings. A deep clean is one of the cheapest things you can do before the sign goes up.
Before starting recurring service
If it's been a while, a deep clean gets the house to a baseline so weekly or bi-weekly visits can keep it there.
Careful with what you've invested in
Hardwood is mopped with a product made for wood, and tile gets its own. Your cleaner moves items to reach full countertops and puts them back where they were. If you'd prefer natural, eco-friendly products, just ask.
And if anything isn't right, tell us within 24 hours. We'll come back and fix it.

Deep cleaning FAQ
How much does a deep cleaning cost in Carmel?
Deep and one-time cleanings start at $300 for a 2,500 sq ft home with 4 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms. Larger homes, more bathrooms and heavier buildup raise the price. Pre-guest and event cleanings run $295 to $360.
How often should I get a deep clean?

Those are add-ons at $45 each. Inside the microwave is included in the kitchen detail.
What should I do before the deep cleaners arrive?
Clear clutter off counters and floors so we can reach every surface, and let us know about any delicate finishes. That is it.
Do you wash windows during a deep clean?
Interior window panes can be added starting at $5 per pane, and window tracks from $7. Front door glass and sliding doors are included.
