Deep cleaning my kitchen!

I moved house fairly recently and have inherited an old kitchen that needs a seriously good deep clean. Over the past couple of weeks I’ve been doing various bits here and there. So far I have:

Cleared out about half the cupboards, given them a good clean then put everything back, organising and decluttering as I go;
Scrubbed about half the wall tiles as best I can;
Cleaned the (filthy) bit under the dishwasher door that you can see when you open it;
Cleaned the bottoms of the cupboards (again, these were coated in grime);
Cleaned the hob and oven;
Bleached the sink and units;
Cleaned the kickboards;
Cleaned the window and windowsill.

Still to do:
Clean the floor, finish inside the cupboards, clean the skirting boards and bin and clean the fridge.

Is there anything else that constitutes a proper deep clean that I’ve missed?

Wash ceiling?

Thanks Plexie! I think I’m going to get it painted soon, so no need to wash the walls thankfully. The whole thing has been exhausting - I’m hoping to move onto the TOMM method once I’m done but the house does need a really good deep clean first!

The back door if it’s in the kitchen

What have you been using to clean it with? I use sugar soap in a spray for greasy surfaces. Works brilliantly.
