Room-by-Room Deep Cleaning Checklist
Even the tidiest of homes requires a good deep cleaning once in a while. It’s easy to get overwhelmed at the thought of deep cleaning your home. Deep cleaning reaches the deep grime and dirt in your home and is a more demanding process than regular or spring cleaning.
Deep cleaning is all about the details. Taking the time to clean and disinfect those hard-to-reach areas creates a fresh ambiance and goes a long way in maintaining your health and wellbeing. To get started, make a quick run to the store for products and use this detailed deep house cleaning checklist to guide you.
Room-by-Room Deep House Cleaning Checklist
Here’s a comprehensive deep house cleaning checklist for your entire house. The deep cleaning checklist is divided into categories (by room) so you can tackle the task at hand as you see fit. It’s recommended to start with the kitchen, bathroom, and living room as these rooms tend to get the dirtiest.
Tip: The “entire house” cleaning items are meant to be done in every room.
Deep Cleaning the Entire House
