Deep cleaning for Austin homes that need a real reset
A deep clean is for a furnished, lived-in home that needs a reset: more clock time, more edges, and honest scope. If you are emptying a rental for an inspection, you want move-out service instead.
STANDARD VS. DEEP VS. MOVE-OUT
Three different jobs, three different goals
Recurring visits reset traffic areas. A deep clean buys time for sills, grout, and edges while you still live there. Move-out work is for turnover and walk-throughs when the unit is emptying out. We will match you to the right job.
If the movers are already gone and the office wants keys back, see our lease-end move-out scope and timing.
WHY AUSTIN HOMES
Why a deep clean often matters in Central Texas
Cedar fever and oak pollen pack sills and fabrics; pet dander from trails and yards hides under beds we do not move each week.
Austin’s limestone grit and road dust show on trim, and humidity keeps mildew in grout. A deep block gives those spots more than a quick pass.
WHAT'S INCLUDED
What we focus on in a deep clean (occupied home)
The list below targets build-up, not a standard rotation. Add what you need at booking.
- ✓ Baseboards, doors, and trim hand-wiped where limestone dust and pollen stick
- ✓ Window sills, tracks, and blinds wiped; accessible tracks cleared of grit
- ✓ Bathroom and kitchen tile and grout scrubbed where reachable, with extra care in humid corners
- ✓ Kitchen surfaces, cabinet faces, and backsplash; oven and fridge interiors optional
- ✓ Lights, vents, ceiling edges, and floors with time to shift light pieces and reach pet-traffic zones
Ovens, fridges, and other add-ons get extra time so nothing gets rushed.
PRICING & TIMING
What to budget—and how we schedule
We price from size, soil level, and pets. Many occupied deep cleans land between $180 and $280 before add-ons. Expect four to six hours on a typical 2–3 bedroom house when you want real detail—larger homes or heavy build-up need more time.
Typical range (occupied deep clean)
$180–$280+ depending on size, condition, and add-ons
FAQ
Deep cleaning FAQs
Standard visits keep daily spaces fresh on a set rotation. A deep block adds clock time to hit sills, tracks, grout, baseboards, and vents you do not get to every week while you are still living in the home.
No. Move-out work targets empty or nearly empty rentals, inspection checklists, and empty cabinets. Deep cleaning is for furnished, occupied homes—we detail build-up in place, not a final move-out sign-off.
Cedar and oak seasons push pollen into sills; limestone and trail grit show on trim; humidity feeds mildew in grout. A deep block targets those real Central Texas pain points with time to do them well.
Most two- to three-bedroom homes run about four to six hours—longer for larger plans, old trim, or heavy build-up. We confirm a realistic window at booking.
Full room cleaning plus hand-detailed baseboards, trim, tracks, shower and kitchen grout where we can reach, lights and vents, and moving light items to get beneath and behind. Ovens and fridges stay add-ons.
Once or twice a year works for many homes—after cedar, before a big event, or when upkeep slips. Pet-heavy, allergy-focused, or very active houses may need more.
Yes, as add-ons with extra time blocked. Fridges and ovens pick up Central Texas dust and kitchen spills; we coordinate products when you request them at booking.
