Most homes benefit from a deep clean two to four times a year, with standard cleaning in between. Homes with pets, kids, or allergies lean toward the higher end.
A standard clean keeps surfaces tidy, but build-up still collects in grout, baseboards, vents, and behind appliances. A deep clean reaches those places.
A practical rhythm is a deep clean each season, or before and after high-traffic times like the holidays.
