How Often Should You Deep Clean Your Home?

How Often Should You Deep Clean Your Home?

Keeping your home clean is an ongoing task, but even the most consistent routine cleanings can’t replace the need for a deeper clean from time to time. You may be asking yourself: how often should you deep clean your home? The answer depends on your lifestyle, the size of your household, and how much foot traffic your home experiences.

At Amazon Cleaning, we specialize in thorough, professional cleaning services for busy Atlanta homeowners. Whether you’re a professional, parent, or retiree, we offer scheduled and on-call services to help you maintain a clean and healthy home—even when life gets hectic.

Why Deep Cleaning Is Essential

While regular cleanings cover everyday surfaces like countertops, floors, and bathrooms, deep cleaning goes a step further. It targets hidden grime, allergens, and bacteria in areas that are often overlooked—like baseboards, behind appliances, window tracks, light fixtures, and air vents.

When you deep clean your home, you’re not just making it look good—you’re protecting your family’s health and extending the life of your home’s surfaces and systems. Deep cleaning removes dust, mold, and pet dander that can trigger allergies or worsen respiratory issues.

How Often Should You Deep Clean?

As a general rule, we recommend deep cleaning your home at least once every 3 to 6 months. However, the right schedule depends on your home’s unique needs:

Every 3 Months: Ideal for families with children, pets, or high activity levels.

Every 6 Months: A good fit for lower-traffic homes or retirees who maintain regular cleaning habits.

Before or After Major Life Events: Deep cleaning is essential before moving in or out, after renovations, or when preparing to host guests.

Between Airbnb Guests (if applicable): Even though our Airbnb services don’t include laundry or weekend work, we can provide a thorough cleaning between weekday bookings.

Signs It’s Time to Deep Clean Your Home

Not sure if it’s time for a deep clean? Look for these signs:

  • Lingering odors even after cleaning
  • Visible dust buildup on baseboards, vents, or ceiling fans
  • Stains or grime on grout, tile, or carpets
  • Allergy symptoms flaring up indoors
  • Cloudy windows or fingerprints on glass
  • Sticky surfaces that won’t come clean with regular wiping

If you notice any of these issues, it’s time to schedule a professional deep clean.

How Professional Cleaners Help

There’s a big difference between cleaners and maids—and we’re proud to be the former. While maid services may include laundry or organizing closets, our professional cleaners focus solely on delivering high-quality, detailed cleaning. We don’t walk dogs or fold towels—we clean.

Amazon Cleaning sends the same trusted two-person team to your home every time, ensuring consistency and familiarity with your preferences. We bring our own premium supplies and HEPA-filtered vacuums, so you don’t have to worry about stocking special products or tools.

On-Call and Ongoing Services

In addition to one-time deep cleans, we offer ongoing cleaning services to help keep your home fresh between deep cleanings. Choose from weekly, biweekly, or every-4-week schedules based on your lifestyle. For occasional needs, our on-call services cover move-in/move-out cleaning, post-construction cleanup, and limited Airbnb cleaning (excluding weekends and laundry).

Whether you need a fresh start or ongoing support, we tailor every visit to your needs—without requiring a long-term contract.

Don’t Wait to Deep Clean Your Home

Your home is your sanctuary, and it deserves care beyond surface-level dusting. Knowing when and how often to deep clean your home helps preserve your space, protect your health, and reduce long-term maintenance costs.
