Deep clean to me =

All crevices properly cleaned
All awkward places not just given a quick flick over (like pipes around the back of the toilet)
Shower head descaled if necessary
Inside fridge, freezer, oven and microwave cleaned and antibac
Hob taken to pieces and cleaned thoroughly
Paintwork washed down
All handles and light switches cleaned with antibac
Cleaning inside, outside and on top of all cupboards
Windows cleaned inside and out
All blinds and curtains cleaned
Fresh bedding and towels
All mirrored surfaces cleaned and shined (including the towel rail)
All the basics done in the kitchen and bathroom

This never happens all in one go in our household.

Will you make all of these things accessible? I wouldn't be happy to take out all sfuff from cupboards for instance. Will fridge be empty?

I would want the oven, shower (mould) and taps (Limescale) tackled as well as all cupboards inside and out. Shelves cleared and wiped down. Sofas moved and cleaned underneath. Rugs rolled up and floor mopped underneath.

I use an oven cleaning company to do the oven, and would love to find someone similar to blitz the bathroom mould and Limescale once every six months!

Add taking books, etc. off shelves, dusting them and the shelving.

Oooh oven cleaning company sounds exciting! Where did you find them Norm, and how much do they charge?

And though I do not want to hijack the thread, I have very pale colour carpets in my house and some are starting to get grubby and stay grubby - high traffic areas like the stairs. Does anyone know if a deep clean company would make them look clean again?
