Deep house cleaning in Sacramento that reaches every nook and cranny
A deep clean is the service to book when your home needs a true reset. We go after the built-up grime a regular clean leaves behind — the kitchen grease, the soap scum, the dust on the fans and the blinds — room by room, while you live there. When we leave, your home doesn’t just look clean. It feels clean.

When a deep clean is the right call
Most homes need a deep clean once or twice a year — or any time life has gotten ahead of the housework. Book one when:
- It’s been months since a top-to-bottom clean. Dust, soap scum and kitchen grease build up in layers a quick clean can’t remove.
- You’re starting recurring service. A deep clean first gets every room to baseline, which is what keeps your recurring cleans quick and affordable.
- You’re hosting. Holidays, parties, family staying over — a deep clean makes the whole house guest-ready, not just the visible parts.
- Allergies are flaring. Deep cleaning targets the dust on fans, blinds and the surfaces regular cleaning passes over.
- After a renovation, an illness, or a busy season when the house needs real attention, not a touch-up.
Moving in or out instead? That’s our move-out and move-in cleaning — the home should be empty, and everything inside is included. Short-term rental between guests? That’s our Airbnb turnover service.

Every deep clean spot-dusts trim, switch plates and cabinet fronts. Want the trim hand-wiped, the blinds wet-wiped, or the oven, fridge and cabinets done inside? Add them to your quote — or book a move-out clean, where the interiors are included.
“Spot-dusted” means we get the visible dust and marks on trim, plates and frames as part of each room. Hand-wiping every foot of baseboard is slower work, so it’s quoted separately — that way you only pay for it when you actually want it.
Popular add-ons, quoted on request
These are quoted into your price before we start — never added on the day. Ask for the ones you want on your quote request, or mention them when you call.
- Inside the oven, including racks (included in a move-out clean)
- Inside the fridge and freezer (included in a move-out clean)
- Inside cabinets and drawers (included in a move-out clean)

Soap scum and everyday buildup are part of every deep clean. Years of hard-water buildup is restoration work — quoted from photos, along with full wall washing and heavy grease or pet hair. Text a photo to (916) 249-2215 and we’ll quote it straight.
Booking a move-out instead? Don’t build a menu — on a move-out clean the appliance and cabinet interiors are already included.

Deep cleaning FAQs
How much does a deep clean cost in Sacramento?
It depends on your home’s size and condition, so we quote each one rather than publish a rate. Tell us the beds, baths and how long since the last thorough clean and you’ll get a free, exact price before anything is booked — and the price you’re quoted is the price you pay.
How long does a deep clean take?
Most deep cleans take about three to six hours, depending on the home’s size and how much buildup there is. We’ll give you a time estimate with your quote so you can plan your day.
What’s the difference between a deep clean and a move-out clean?
Occupancy. A deep clean resets a home you’re living in; a move-out clean is for an empty home and includes every interior — oven, fridge, cabinets, closets — as standard. If your home is empty, book the move-out.
Is the inside of the microwave included?
On a deep clean the microwave is wiped down outside; the inside is an add-on, like the oven, fridge and dishwasher interiors — ask for it on your quote request. On a move-out clean all of those interiors are included.
Do I need to be home during the clean?
No — many clients let us in and go about their day. We just need access at the start and a way to lock up when we’re done.
Do you bring your own supplies and equipment?
Yes. Your team arrives with everything needed. If you’d rather we use a specific product you supply, tell us when booking.
Should I get a deep clean before starting recurring service?
Yes — we recommend it. A deep clean brings every room to baseline, which is what lets recurring visits stay quick, consistent and affordable.
What if I’m not happy with something?
If anything’s missed, tell us within 24 hours — we come back and touch it up free.
