"My house doesn't need a Deep Clean"

- Everyone who desperately did.

DEEP CLEAN

Milan Cleaning Company

Deep Cleanings are suitable for your home if you have pets and/or children and have not maintained it in 2+ months, or if you are a first time customer. If your home, including bathrooms, have not had a good cleaning in more than a few months, you may need a Deep Cleaning.

What's included

Compare the tasks below. ✅ Included; ❌ not included in that option. “Ask Milan” means the scope must be agreed for that task before booking. Ask for an estimate and confirm any access or task limits.

Service names. Standard Clean Plus is the same service as Semi Deep Clean. It is called Standard Clean Plus when offered as an upgrade from Standard Clean. The progression is Standard Clean, then Standard Clean Plus (Semi Deep), then Deep Clean. The Deep Clean comparison still has three tiers: Semi Deep, Deep Clean and Premier Deep Clean.

Semi Deep Clean scope. Standard Clean Plus (Semi Deep Clean) includes bathroom baseboard cleaning and removal of all bathroom cobwebs. Kitchen cabinet exteriors are cleaned only where reachable from a standing position, without a ladder. This kitchen-cabinet limit does not change the reach rules for other tasks. Baseboards outside bathrooms remain excluded.

Standard Clean Plus is the same service as Semi Deep. Its kitchen cabinet exteriors are limited to standing reach, without a ladder. Bathroom baseboards, bathroom cobweb removal and inside bathroom-door wiping are included; baseboards throughout and other doors are not. Deep Clean and Premier include top-to-bottom kitchen cabinet exteriors. Regular window-track wipe-down is included in Deep Clean and Premier; heavy buildup may require additional work. Floor-grout scrubbing is separate from normal tub/shower and floor cleaning. Original service conditions and exclusions still apply.

Questions and answers

Deep Cleaning FAQs

Call Milan to discuss the scope and timing for your space.

Do you clean marble and natural stone?

Yes, we clean marble, granite, and other natural stone surfaces using pH neutral cleaners and non-acidic products.

We take special care to protect the finish and avoid etching or damage. Let us know if your home has stone counters or floors and we’ll adapt our cleaning approach.

How do I get a price for deep clean?

Call Milan at (510) 759-6310 with the size and condition of your home and the work you need. Residential estimates are prepared by phone, without an in-home walkthrough first.

What does a deep clean include in my home?

Compare the three columns above, then expand the Deep Clean checklist for each room. Semi Deep has the scope shown in its column. Premier adds the listed wall, door and kitchen/bathroom floor tile and grout work. Confirm task limits with Milan before booking.

Which deep-cleaning tasks cost extra?

Inside the oven, refrigerator and freezer remain separate add-ons for Deep Clean and Premier Deep Clean. Moving the fridge and stove to clean underneath is an add-on for base Deep Clean but is included in Premier Deep Clean. Those appliance-interior and appliance-moving tasks are not included in Semi Deep. Ask Milan to confirm any additional work for your chosen tier.

What should I tell you about getting into my Oakland building?

Tell Milan about the entrance, any gate or intercom, stairs or elevator access, and where equipment can be unloaded. Confirm any building or service-entry instructions before choosing a visit time.

What if my Oakland home has not been cleaned in several months?

Discuss a Deep Clean if you are a first-time client, your home has not been maintained for more than two months, or bathrooms have not had a good cleaning in several months. Tell Milan about pets, children and the current condition.
