What does a deep clean include? A room-by-room checklist
What a professional deep clean covers in each room, how long it takes and what it costs in Romiley and Stockport, from a local cleaner with 15+ years' experience.
Quick answer
A deep clean covers everything in a regular clean plus inside cupboards, descaling, skirting boards, doors, radiators, light fittings and behind movable furniture. In Romiley a deep clean costs from £210 for a 2-bed and £270 for a 3-bed, and takes 6 to 10 hours of cleaning time.
A deep clean is a top-to-bottom reset of your home. It covers the jobs a weekly clean doesn't reach, like inside the cupboards, the limescale round the taps, the tops of door frames and the dust behind the sofa. In Romiley and the SK6 villages, most people book one in spring, before Christmas, before selling, or before starting regular cleaning.
How much does a deep clean cost?
| Home | Propatidy price | Typical cleaning time |

| 1-bed flat or house | £160 | 5 to 6 hours |
| 2-bed home | £210 | 6 to 8 hours |
| 3-bed home | £270 | 8 to 10 hours |
| 4-bed home | £340 | 10 to 13 hours |

Book oven or carpet cleaning with your deep clean and you save 15% on the add-on.
How to get the most out of a deep clean
- Clear the clutter first. Every minute spent moving things is a minute not cleaning.
- Point out the problem areas. A shower screen or a greasy extractor is easier to plan for in advance.
- Book carpets last. If carpets are being cleaned too, they go last so they dry while we finish.
- Follow up with regular cleaning. A fortnightly clean at £22 an hour keeps it looking this way.

Questions people also ask
How often should I get a deep clean?
Once or twice a year suits most homes, often in spring and before Christmas. Homes with pets, or without a regular cleaner, may benefit from one every three to four months.
Is the oven included in a deep clean?
The outside and hob are. A full inside oven clean is an add-on from £60, with 15% off when booked with your deep clean.
Should I tidy before a deep clean?
Clearing clutter from worktops, floors and surfaces means more time goes on cleaning rather than moving things, which keeps the price down.
