Deep House Cleaning in Shenfield

Deep House Cleaning in Shenfield

How long does a deep clean take in a large Shenfield or Hutton house?

There's no fixed time, because it depends on the number of bathrooms and reception rooms and on how long it's been since the last thorough clean. A four bedroom detached house with three bathrooms needs far more hours than a semi with one, so we price the job from what you tell us about your home.

The more detail you give on the quote form, the more accurate the price. Tell us the number of bedrooms, bathrooms and en suites, whether there's a utility room or cloakroom, and which rooms matter most to you. On bigger houses, including those on Hutton Mount, we can send two or more cleaners together so the whole house is finished in one day rather than spread across several.

What gets cleaned in en suites, cloakrooms and utility rooms?

Each en suite and cloakroom gets the same attention as the main bathroom: tiles and grout scrubbed, limescale removed from taps, shower heads and screens, the toilet scrubbed right round the pedestal, mirrors polished and the extractor fan cover wiped. Utility rooms get the sink, worktops, cupboard fronts and the outside of the washing machine, dryer and any other appliance in there.

En suites are often the rooms that slip first, because they're behind a bedroom door and only one or two people use them. Shower trays and the seals along the bottom of a screen collect soap and limescale quickly in hard water. In the utility room we clean the detergent drawer, wipe the door seal and, where the machines slide out safely, clean the floor behind them, which is where fluff and dropped socks end up.

Is a deep clean worth it if you haven't had a cleaner for months?

Yes, and that's exactly the situation a deep clean is for. After a long gap, a regular visit can't catch up on everything at once, but a deep clean can. It clears the grime and build up in one go, so you start again from a clean house rather than a list of jobs.

There's nothing to be embarrassed about. Busy jobs, children, a long illness or the cleaner you had moving away all lead to the same place, and we're there to help, not to judge. Just tell us honestly how things are when you ask for a quote, because that's how we allow enough time to do the job properly the first time. You could also book one each year as a spring clean, so it never gets to that point again.

How do you move from a deep clean to regular cleaning in Shenfield?

Once the deep clean is done, you can switch to a weekly or fortnightly domestic cleaning visit that holds the house at that level. Regular visits cost less per hour than a one off clean, and because the hard work is already behind you, each visit goes on keeping things fresh instead of catching up.

We try to send the same cleaner each time, so you have one reliable person who gets to know your house, which rooms you use most and where things go. You can choose for us to bring equipment as well as products, which is handy if you'd rather not store a vacuum on every floor.
