How Often Should You Do a Deep Clean?

We all know that a quick tidy-up, vacuuming, wiping down benches, or giving the bathroom a once-over – can make your home feel fresh in no time. But when it comes to a deep clean, the rules are a little different. So, how often should you really roll up your sleeves and give your home that extra attention?

For most Aussie households, a deep clean every 3 to 4 months is enough to keep things hygienic, organised, and stress-free. Think of it as a seasonal refresh, perfect for tackling the build-up that regular cleaning doesn’t always reach.

Spaces like the kitchen and bathroom tend to collect grime and germs much faster. Giving these zones a deeper scrub once a month can prevent mould, odours, and grease from taking over.

What Counts as a Deep Clean?

A deep clean usually goes beyond the basics. It includes things like:

• Washing skirting boards, walls and doors

• Cleaning behind large furniture and appliances

• Scrubbing grout and tiles

• Dusting fans, blinds, and air vents

• Shampooing carpets or steaming upholstery

It’s about getting into the spots we often forget – but that make a big difference once cleaned.

Besides making your place look spotless, deep cleaning reduces allergens, improves indoor air quality, and creates a calmer environment to come home to. Plus, staying on top of it means less time and stress if you’re preparing for guests, inspections, or even an open home.

A Little Tip for Busy Aussies

If life’s too hectic (and let’s be honest, it often is), consider booking a professional cleaning service for seasonal deep cleans. It’s an easy way to free up your weekends while making sure your home still gets the care it needs.
