How does it differ from a normal domestic clean still
Done by cleaners?

I don't understand the question. Could you give the context?

Professional clean is a really thorough clean - they clean your cupboards, reach up into the lightbulbs to get away the cobwebs, scrub your oven - all the things your regular cleaner wouldn't do on a weekly basis. It's still done by cleaners but they spend double the time on a room compared to a regular clean. It's when they move your sofa and hoover under it etc. I had one done the other day and my home seemed brand new. Let me know if you need recommendations.

Oh! I have always called that a "deep clean." Yeah, it's a clean that goes beyond the routine regular stuff. Takes several hours instead of a couple of hours.

I think it's more than a deep clean. It must get rid of all the visible dirt and requires, possibly, steam cleaning.

It sounds like an arbitrary label someone came up with. I have never heard of it, and I'm a member of several cleaning professional organisations.

Since we all consider all of what we do to be "professional" I don't think many cleaners would designate one level of service as "professional."

Nomenclature aside, are you talking about something involving sterilisation of a commercial or health care space?

A deep clean removes all visible dirt. Not sure about steam cleaning, unless you mean carpet and upholstery cleaning.
