Commercial deep cleaning covers the detailed work that routine service does not reach: floors, restrooms, kitchens and breakrooms, glass, high surfaces, and areas behind and under furniture. Routine cleaning keeps a space tidy. Deep cleaning resets it.

  • Restrooms. Detailed cleaning and disinfecting of fixtures, partitions, grout, and floor drains areas, plus removal of mineral buildup.

  • Breakrooms and kitchens. Interior and exterior cleaning of appliances, cabinets, counters, and sinks.

  • High-touch surfaces. Door handles, switches, handrails, elevator buttons, and shared equipment.

  • Glass and surfaces. Interior glass, partitions, and wall spot cleaning.

  • High and hidden areas. Vents, light fixtures, ceiling corners, door frames, and the areas behind and under furniture.



When to schedule a deep clean


  • At the start of a new service contract

  • Before a seasonal peak, an opening, or an inspection

  • After a renovation or construction

  • When tenants move in or out

  • Once or twice a year as a reset


How to prepare


Clear desks and shelves of loose items, remove valuables, and share access instructions and any areas that need extra attention. Ask the provider for the scope in writing and a completion check.
