Keeping your home clean and fresh is part of everyday life, but sometimes a regular tidy-up isn’t enough. That’s when a deep clean becomes essential. But what exactly does a deep clean include, and how is it different from standard cleaning?

In this blog, we’ll break down what professional deep cleaning involves, why it matters, and how much it typically costs in the UK. If you’re based in Leeds, we’ll also share why Platinum City Cleaning Services is the trusted choice for spotless results.

What Is a Deep Clean?

A deep clean goes beyond the usual routine of dusting, vacuuming, and wiping down surfaces. It’s a thorough, top-to-bottom cleaning process designed to tackle hidden dirt, bacteria, and grime in every corner of your home.

Most people book a deep clean:

  • When moving in or out of a property

  • After renovations or building work

  • Before or after special occasions

  • Once or twice a year for seasonal refreshes


Regular Cleaning vs. Deep Cleaning

It’s important to understand the difference:

Regular Cleaning Includes:

  • Dusting and wiping surfaces

  • Vacuuming and mopping floors

  • Cleaning sinks and mirrors

  • General bathroom and kitchen upkeep


Deep Cleaning Includes:

  • Scrubbing skirting boards, tiles, and grout

  • Cleaning behind and under appliances

  • Degreasing extractor fans and cooker hoods

  • Descaling taps, showerheads, and toilets

  • Polishing doors, switches, and fixtures

  • Cleaning inside cupboards and drawers

👉 Put simply, deep cleaning reaches the places regular cleaning often misses.
