Behind and under appliances
The refrigerator and range are pulled out so the floor and side panels underneath get cleaned. This is where spills, crumbs, and grease accumulate for years without ever being visible.

What makes a clean deep rather than routine
A standard visit maintains a level. A deep clean changes it. The difference is not effort or enthusiasm, it is scope: a deep clean deliberately reaches the surfaces that a recurring visit passes over every single time.
That means moving what normally gets cleaned around: pulling out the refrigerator and range, working baseboards and door frames by hand, taking cabinet fronts and switch plates individually, and dealing with soap scum and hard water that has built up over months.
Bloomington Cleaning provides deep cleaning for houses, condos, and apartments, and for offices that need a reset before recurring service starts. It is one-time work, priced by the hour or by the job.
Deep cleaning is the right call when a space has fallen behind, when you are moving in or out, when guests are coming and the house needs to be genuinely presentable, or after a renovation once the dust has settled.
Added scope
What a deep clean covers that a standard visit does not
✓
Baseboards, trim, and door frames
Worked by hand along their whole length rather than passed over with a vacuum. Baseboards hold dust and scuff marks that reshape how clean a room reads, especially in good light.
✓
Hard water and soap scum removal
Showers, tub surrounds, glass doors, and fixtures get the dwell time and mechanical work that mineral buildup actually requires. A wipe-down does not touch it.
✓
Cabinet and drawer fronts
Kitchen and bathroom cabinet faces are cleaned individually, including the handle area and the grease film that collects near the range.
✓
Interior oven and refrigerator
Available on request and worth requesting. Both take significant time on their own, which is why they sit outside a standard visit.
✓
Vents, fans, and light fixtures
Reachable bathroom exhaust covers, ceiling fan blades, and light fixtures, all of which hold dust that redistributes through the room every time they run.

Move-in and move-out deep cleaning in Bloomington
Moving is the most common reason people book a deep clean, and it is the version where completeness matters most, because an empty space hides nothing.
Move-out cleaning is about the deposit. With furniture gone, every surface is inspectable, and the items landlords actually check are predictable:
- Inside all cabinets and drawers, not only the fronts
- Appliance interiors: oven, refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave
- Baseboards, window sills, and interior window glass where reachable
- Bathroom fixtures, grout, and any mineral buildup
- Closet shelving, door frames, and switch plates
- Floors throughout, including corners the furniture was covering
Move-in cleaning answers a different question: what did the previous occupant leave behind? We concentrate on the surfaces you will touch and prepare food on, so the place feels yours before the boxes arrive.
For apartments and condos near transit and retail, an empty unit is faster to clean thoroughly than an occupied one, so book it in the gap between tenancies where you can.
Priorities

Where a deep clean makes the biggest visible difference
- Kitchens: grease on cabinet fronts and backsplash, appliance exteriors and the gaps between them, and the floor edges along the cabinet run.
- Bathrooms: mineral buildup on glass and fixtures, grout lines, the base of the toilet, and exhaust vent covers.
- Floors and edges: the perimeter and corners where soil collects out of a vacuum's normal path, plus under moveable furniture.
- High and low surfaces: door tops, trim, ceiling fans, and vents that hold dust nobody sees until it moves.
If your time or budget is limited, put it into kitchens and bathrooms. Those two rooms carry most of a person's judgment about whether a whole home is clean, and they hold the buildup that responds most visibly to real work.
Commercial resets

Deep cleaning for offices and workplaces
Offices need deep cleans for their own reasons: before a lease starts, after a period of neglected service, ahead of an inspection or client visit, or as a baseline before recurring janitorial coverage begins.
A commercial deep clean typically adds:
- Full restroom detail including grout, partitions, and fixture buildup
- Breakroom appliance interiors, cabinet fronts, and the floor beneath equipment
- Interior glass on doors and partitions throughout
- High dusting on ledges, vents, and light fixtures
- Detailed floor work on edges, corners, and beneath furniture
When a building has fallen behind, a startup reset before recurring service is worth doing. Recurring visits are sized to hold a standard, not to recover months of backlog, and starting without the reset means the schedule never catches up.
For ongoing coverage after the reset, see janitorial services.
Walkthrough or detailed description
We need to know size, condition, and your priorities. Photos of the areas that concern you most are genuinely useful, since condition drives the time more than square footage does.
An agreed task list and time estimate
You get a written scope with any add-ons priced separately, such as oven interior, refrigerator interior, or interior windows, plus an honest estimate of hours.
Systematic room-by-room work
We work top to bottom and room to room rather than circling the whole space repeatedly. Each room is finished before we move on, so progress is visible as it happens.
Walkthrough before we leave
We walk the space with you at the end where possible. Anything you want revisited is handled then, rather than becoming a callback.

How Much Does Deep Cleaning Cost in Bloomington, MN?
Residential deep cleaning in Bloomington usually runs about $260 to $520 for a smaller home or apartment and $450 to $900+ for larger homes, which reflects roughly $45 to $75 per hour of labor. Move-out cleans usually sit at the higher end because completeness is the point. Commercial deep cleans commonly start around $350 to $1,500+.
Condition matters more than size. A well-kept 2,500 square foot home can take less time than a neglected 1,200 square foot apartment. Bathroom count, appliance interiors, pet hair, and how much tidying is needed before cleaning can begin all affect the total. We confirm pricing after reviewing the details rather than quoting blind.
Questions answered
Deep cleaning questions Bloomington clients ask
How long does a deep clean take? +−
Most homes take 4 to 8 hours, and larger or neglected properties can run a full day or need a two-person team. It is substantially longer than a standard visit because the scope genuinely is larger: pulling out appliances and hand-working trim simply takes time. We give an estimate up front and tell you if the reality is running over.
Should I get a deep clean before starting recurring service? +−
Usually yes, if the space has fallen behind. Recurring visits are sized to maintain a standard rather than establish one, so starting without a reset means every visit is partly catch-up and the home never quite arrives. One deep clean followed by maintenance visits is both cheaper and more effective than months of overlong regular cleans.
Do you clean inside the oven and refrigerator? +−
Yes, on request, and we recommend asking for them. Both are priced as add-ons because each takes significant time on its own. Oven interiors in particular need dwell time for the degreaser to work, so telling us in advance means we plan the hours rather than rushing it at the end.
Will a deep clean remove hard water stains? +−
Usually a great deal of it, though not always all. Bloomington water leaves mineral deposits on glass and fixtures that respond well to proper descaling products and mechanical work. Deposits left for years can etch the glass permanently, in which case the surface will look dramatically better but not new, and we will say so rather than overpromising.
Do I need to be home during the clean? +−
No, as long as access and instructions are arranged beforehand. Many clients prefer to be present at the start to walk through priorities, then leave us to work. For a move-out clean an empty property is ideal and nobody needs to be there at all.
What should I do before you arrive? +−
Clear clutter from the surfaces you want cleaned, since time spent organizing personal items is time not spent cleaning. Put away anything valuable or fragile, and tell us about surfaces needing specific care: natural stone, unsealed wood, or a finish with a product you prefer we use.
