Do you know when your home needs a deep clean over regular housekeeping? Are you clear about the distinction between the two types of cleaning? First, let’s lay out the differences between regular housekeeping and deep cleaning. Then, we’ll explore the appropriate circumstances for regular housekeeping, along with situations where it’s advantageous to choose deep cleaning services.
Housekeeping
Housekeeping cleaning normally refers to maintenance of the cleanliness of the house. As we have limited time assigned to our daily chores, it is not possible for us to perform deep cleaning to our homes on a daily basis. Housekeeping cleaning would normally focus more on the common touch points which would include areas such as:
– Dining area
– Door knobs
– Toilet cleaning
– Sweeping, vacuuming and mopping of common area
The purpose of the housekeeping is to ensure that on a daily or weekly basis, the common areas in the house would be clean so that the house would have minimal bacteria and create a safe and conducive environment for resting.
Deep cleaning
Deep cleaning or some might known as spring cleaning, is more of a thorough cleaning of the whole house and covers more area of cleaning as compared to housekeeping. On top of the pointers mentioned above in housekeeping, the other areas that are covered during deep cleaning would include:
– Windows and Window frames
– High areas and hard to reach corners
– High ceiling fans and light fixtures
– Cupboards and Wardrobes
– Interiors of fridge, oven and other kitchen equipments
– Thorough vacuum and mopping of the entire house
For normal housekeeping or house cleaning, it is possible to do so on our own. However, for deep cleaning or spring cleaning, it is advisable to best engage professional home cleaners to do so as you want your house to be as thoroughly cleaned as possible. Professional home cleaners would have the knowledge and right equipment to perform the tasks effectively.
