When booking a professional cleaning service, one of the first questions is: do you need regular cleaning or deep cleaning? The answer depends on your situation, the current condition of your home, and your ongoing needs.

What is Regular Cleaning?

Regular cleaning is maintenance cleaning designed to keep an already clean home in good condition. It covers all the essentials:

Dusting surfaces
Vacuuming and mopping floors
Bathroom cleaning (toilet, sink, shower)
Kitchen surface cleaning
Mirror and glass cleaning
General tidying

Best for: Homes that are already clean and need consistent maintenance. Most families book regular cleaning weekly or bi-weekly.

Price: Starting from 70 EUR for a studio apartment.

What is Deep Cleaning?

Deep cleaning goes beyond the surface. It is a thorough cleaning that reaches areas typically missed during regular cleaning:

Everything in regular cleaning, plus:
Inside cabinets and drawers
Interior of appliances (oven, refrigerator, microwave)
Detailed bathroom cleaning with limescale removal
Behind and under furniture
Baseboards and light fixtures
Wall areas where reachable

Best for: First-time cleanings, seasonal cleaning, homes that have not been professionally cleaned recently, or before special occasions.

Price: Starting from 120 EUR for a studio apartment.

How to Decide

Choose Regular Cleaning If:

Your home is already in good condition
You want to maintain cleanliness week to week
You clean regularly yourself but want professional help
You want to save time on routine tasks

Choose Deep Cleaning If:

It is your first time hiring a cleaning service
Your home has not been professionally cleaned in over 3 months
You are preparing for guests or a special event
You just moved into a new place
It is time for spring or seasonal cleaning
You notice buildup in appliances or hard-to-reach areas

Our Recommendation

For most clients, we recommend starting with a deep cleaning, then switching to regular cleaning for maintenance. This gives us a clean baseline to work from, and regular visits keep everything in excellent condition.

Many of our clients in Tallinn book bi-weekly regular cleaning after an initial deep clean. This schedule keeps their homes consistently fresh without the need for frequent deep cleaning.
