How much does deep cleaning cost in 2023?

The weekly deep clean is a frustrating task. No matter how much you get done, it just never seems to be enough! Stubborn stains, grime, and grease find their way into every corner and carpet fibre, but luckily there is a solution. 

Professional deep cleaning services provide specialised cleaning solutions to tackle even the biggest mess! But how much can you expect to pay for these services? 

We’ve created this guide to explain exactly what you can expect from these types of services and how much deep cleaning should cost you.

What is included in a deep cleaning service?

These days, it can sometimes be difficult to make the time for housework; however, tidying up doesn't have to feel like a monumental task. Is a deep house cleaning service what you need for your home?

A deep cleaning service is a very in-depth approach to cleaning that goes beyond your standard wipe-down and tidy up. From top to bottom, every nook and cranny is given a thorough scrub, leaving your home looking and feeling brand new.

Each individual room will be assessed and assigned its own checklist based on the fixtures and fittings on display. For example, a deep clean of the kitchen may include cleaning tasks such as:

  • Cleaning the inside of appliances - microwave, fridge and oven cleaning
  • Cleaning of the stovetop and filters
  • Cleaning inside and outside cupboards and cabinets
  • Disinfecting switches and hand touchpoints
  • Cleaning grout on tiles and backboards

Other rooms such as the bathroom, living room, dining room and bedrooms will contain their own house specific checklist which is created by the cleaning professional upon the initial inspection.

What’s the difference between deep cleaning and regular cleaning?

There are a number of differences between these two house cleaning services, they’re primarily based around the level of detail provided within the cleaning.

Regular cleaning services usually focus on maintaining a baseline level of cleanliness and tidiness in your home on a regular basis, such as weekly or bi-weekly. This typically includes tasks like vacuuming, dusting, wiping down surfaces, and the basic cleaning of bathrooms and kitchens.

On the other hand, deep cleaning services are much more extensive and are designed to reach areas that are often overlooked during regular cleaning. Deep cleaning services typically include a thorough cleaning of hard-to-reach places like behind furniture, under appliances, and inside cabinets and drawers. 

Another significant difference is the cost of each cleaning service. As deep cleaning requires specialised training and specific cleaning equipment, it tends to be a little more expensive than regular cleaning.

The cost of deep cleaning

The cost of a full house deep clean will depend on a number of factors, including location, the size of your house, the number of rooms that need cleaning, and the level of cleaning required. 

Many cleaning companies will charge an hourly rate and often require a minimum number of hours, while others will set a flat rate per room or for the entire home. 

The average hourly price of deep cleaning services is approximately £15 per hour. Some may charge as low as £11, while others may be as high as £20 per hour. 

When scheduling your appointment, you should always seek to find out as much information about the service as possible. Asking detailed questions will ensure you’re getting the best value for money:

  • What level of training and experience do the cleaners have?
  • Do they use high-quality cleaning products?
  • How long has the company been operating in the industry?

There are also a number of extras that aren’t included in the original cleaning prices that you can opt for to scale up the cleanliness of your home even further!

Optional Extras

Cleaning companies will often offer a variety of other services you can add on to your deep clean, including the following:

  • Gutter clearing and cleaning
  • External window cleaning
  • Upholstery cleaning
  • Driveway and patio cleaning

These will vary in cost anywhere between £40-£200 depending on the level of cleaning required.
