Most people don’t understand the difference between regular cleanings and deep cleaning of their Tulsa homes, but there are differences. The two main differences are cost and how/what gets cleaned, so it’s important to know what you’re getting for the extra charges.
Regular
Regular house cleaning in Tulsa will include bathrooms, kitchens, living rooms and bedrooms. Bathrooms will be cleaned and disinfected, including showers, tile walls, toilets and floors. Baseboards will be dusted or wiped down, trash will be removed, and the area will be dusted. The sink will be cleaned, carpets will be vacuumed, fixtures and mirrors are cleaned, and cobwebs will be removed.
In the kitchen, stoves will be wiped down, trash removed, microwaves and refrigerators will be wiped down. Countertops and drip pans will be cleaned, as well as sinks and tables/chairs.
Beds will be made, floors will be vacuumed, and picture frames will be dusted. Everything will be dusted and wiped down, including windowsills and stairs.
Deep
A deep house cleaning in Tulsa will include the regular cleaning, plus having the tile grout in the bathroom scrubbed, frames and doors will be spot cleaned, the trash cans will be sanitized and knickknacks will be wiped or cleaned. Kitchen deep cleaning will offer the inside of the range to be cleaned, the oven cleaned, and the area behind refrigerators and ovens. The refrigerator and dishwasher will be cleaned inside and out, and the cabinets will be shined and washed. The inside of the microwave can also be cleaned.
Lampshades will be dusted, carpet edges will be vacuumed, ceiling fans will be wiped down, blinds will be cleaned and the underneath of the bed will also be vacuumed or cleaned.
In most cases, you can request that extra cleaning be done, but some companies will not provide cleaning of walls or windows. Some will do laundry by the hour while others won’t. Most cleaning companies in Tulsa will require the floors to be picked up and ready to be cleaned.
Cost
Typically, a deep clean will cost around $350, depending on the area, the size of the home, and what the cleaning entails. A standard or simple cleaning will cost around $100, again depending on the demographic area and size of the home. Some cleaning services also provide an a la carte menu where you can pick and choose what you want at a set price.
