Brio Cleaning

Deep House Cleaning in Richmond, VA

A deep clean covers everything in a standard clean and adds the detail work that doesn't need attention every visit: baseboards, woodwork and the trim around doors and windows, ceiling fans and light fixtures wiped down, inside windows, wet-wiped windowsills, range hood vents and hard-to-reach spots. It's the reset a home needs a few times a year, or before starting a recurring plan.

Starting at $230Typically 3–4 hours41-task checklist

The quoted price is an estimate based on your home's size and details. If a home needs more time than expected, we text you before going past your estimate, and extra time is billed at $125/hour, prorated.

Standard or deep?

Good to know before you book

  • Furniture and heavy items are cleaned around, not moved.
  • On standard and deep cleans, trash liners, paper towels, fresh linens and towels need to be left out for us. On move in/out cleans we bring everything we need.
  • Shower and tub tile is scrubbed across the whole surface, not grout line by line, so deep-set stains in grout may not fully come out.
  • Garages and other unfinished areas aren't included by default. They can be added as an extra room.

Deep House Cleaning: common questions

What's the difference between a standard clean and a deep clean?

A standard clean is maintenance for an already-tidy home. A deep clean does all of that plus the detail work: baseboards, inside windows, wet-wiped windowsills and blinds, and range hood vents. We recommend a deep clean first if it has been a while, then standard cleans to keep it up.

How long does a deep clean take?

Usually 3 to 4 hours with a two-person team, longer for larger homes or ones that need extra attention. You'll get a time estimate with your quote.

Do I need a deep clean before starting recurring service?

If it has been more than a month or two since your last professional clean, yes. It lets the team get everything to a baseline so future standard visits stay quick and thorough.

Does a deep clean include inside the oven and refrigerator?

Those are part of our move-in/out service rather than a standard deep clean. A deep clean focuses on baseboards, windows and sills, range hood vents and detail work throughout the home.

Is a deep clean a flat price or an estimate?

The price shown when you book is an estimate based on your home's size and the information provided. Deep cleans can take longer than expected, especially if the home hasn't been cleaned in a while. If extra time is needed, we text you before going past your estimate, and it's billed at our standard hourly rate of $125/hour, prorated. Recurring standard cleans, by contrast, are a true flat rate.
