Many people believe that cleaning is just sweeping, mopping, and dusting. However, there is a big difference between superficial cleaning and professional deep cleaning. The latter goes beyond what is visible: it removes accumulated dirt, hidden bacteria, and residues that traditional methods cannot reach.
Scheduling a deep cleaning on a regular basis can help you better maintain your spaces, prevent illness, and improve the air quality in your home or business. Here we tell you exactly what it includes and why you should add it to your maintenance schedule.
Deep cleaning involves a detailed intervention, with specific products and professional equipment, to reach every corner that is normally overlooked. It’s not just about cleaning more, but cleaning better and more thoroughly.
Among the aspects that a deep cleaning with CM Cleaning usually includes are:
Complete kitchen: disinfection of stove, oven, hood, interior of cabinets, and greasy surfaces.
Bathrooms: cleaning of joints, faucets, total disinfection of toilets, tiles, and glass.
Bedrooms and common areas: cleaning of baseboards, switches, blinds, fans, and under beds or heavy furniture.
Forgotten spaces: ventilation grilles, low ceilings, high corners, baseboards, door frames, etc.
Use of non-corrosive professional disinfectants.
Deep vacuuming with HEPA filters (ideal for allergies).
Steam or dry cleaning depending on the surface.
Specialized products for stainless steel, marble, ceramic, or wood.
Although both are necessary, their objectives and depth are different. Regular cleaning maintains daily order and hygiene, but leaves many areas unattended. Deep cleaning, on the other hand, is a thorough intervention, ideal for removing dust, mold, grease, or bacteria buildup.
For example, in regular cleaning you can clean the sink and toilet. In deep cleaning, the inside of the tank is disinfected, limescale stains are removed, walls and joints are cleaned, and ventilation is inspected. In offices or businesses, this can make a difference in the perception of cleanliness by customers and employees.
One of the biggest mistakes is to think that deep cleaning should only be done when the place already “looks” very dirty. In reality, it is a preventive measure. Scheduling it frequently prevents buildup, improves air quality, cares for materials, and reduces the proliferation of invisible mites, mold, or bacteria.
Ideally, you should schedule deep cleaning:
Every 3 to 4 months in residential spaces.
Monthly in rental properties or high-traffic areas.
Before and after moves, renovations, or peak seasons.
In the case of businesses, doing it periodically can even prevent health fines or improve customer perception. A clean environment is also a reflection of professionalism and care.
Although sometimes perceived as an expense, deep cleaning is an investment. It improves your respiratory health, preserves your furniture, prolongs the life of surfaces, and reduces the need for costly repairs or maintenance.
Specific benefits include:
Fewer allergies and respiratory illnesses.
A better environment for sleeping, working, or living.
Longer durability of furniture, floors, countertops, and appliances.
Savings on repairs due to residue buildup.
Plus, if you rent a property, a good deep clean can help you get better reviews and more bookings.
