As highlighted in Forbes’ article “What Is Included In A Basic House Cleaning?”, hiring a professional cleaning service can ease the burden of keeping your home tidy, especially for those who view cleaning as a chore rather than a relaxing task. According to Marla Mock, president of Molly Maid, a regular cleaning service provides peace of mind by maintaining a clean home on a consistent schedule, freeing up valuable time.
What Is a Standard Interior House Cleaning?
A basic house cleaning generally targets “new dirt” that accumulates between cleaning sessions, as opposed to deep cleaning, which addresses years of built-up grime. Brian LeBlanc, owner of LeBlanc Cleaning, explains that an “initial” clean may take significantly longer and is more thorough, while a recurring service focuses on routine tidying and upkeep.
What’s Included in a Basic Cleaning by Room:
1. Kitchen Cleaning
Since the kitchen is one of the busiest areas of the home, it receives special attention during a general cleaning session. Here’s what most services include:
- Wiping down countertops, appliance exteriors, and cabinets
- Scrubbing and sanitizing the microwave inside and out
- Cleaning the stovetop, range hood, and drip pans
- Sanitizing the sink and backsplash
- Dusting and wiping down furniture, baseboards, and kitchen rugs
- Mopping, sweeping, or vacuuming floors
- Emptying trash cans and replacing liners
2. Bathroom Cleaning
Bathrooms are another high-priority area due to their potential for germ buildup. A typical cleaning session involves:
- Scrubbing and polishing sinks and faucets
- Cleaning and sanitizing tubs, showers, and toilets (inside and out)
- Disinfecting countertops and vanities
- Polishing mirrors and dusting light fixtures
- Mopping floors and shaking out bathmats
- Emptying trash bins
