What this service actually addresses

Detail beyond routine maintenance

Deep Cleaning provides additional time and detail beyond recurring maintenance — around fixtures, baseboards, appliance exteriors, bathroom detail and built-up edges.

Right-sized to the home

Every deep clean is scoped to the rooms you actually want cleaned and their current condition, so pricing reflects your property rather than an average home.

The cleaning ladder

Deep Cleaning sits between Maintenance and Heavy-Duty & Restoration Cleaning. Significant grease, soap scum, hard-water buildup or long-neglected surfaces may need Heavy-Duty & Restoration Cleaning instead, and the assessment will say so before you book.

What a deep clean covers

The approved Scope of Work lists the rooms included and the detail work in each — typically baseboards, door frames and switches, fixtures, tiled surfaces, appliance exteriors and the built-up edges routine visits don't reach. Deep Cleaning handles light to moderate buildup; it does not include grout restoration or the removal of severe, long-standing buildup, which belong to Heavy-Duty & Restoration Cleaning.

Deep cleaning in Ajax and across Durham Region

Fresh & Shiny provides deep cleaning in Ajax, Pickering, Whitby, Oshawa and Courtice. The service is the same in every city: the crew travels to your home with the equipment and products required, and the scope and price come from the rooms you select and their current condition — not your address.

How Fresh & Shiny handles Deep Cleaning

Is Deep Cleaning done by one cleaner or a team?
Deep Cleaning is a team service. Team size is not fixed in advance — we don't promise a number of cleaners before the assessment.
How is team size determined?
From the home's size, condition, Scope of Work, service type and workload identified through the assessment. A smaller job may need fewer cleaners; a larger or more demanding one may need a larger team.
What does the booked visit time mean?
Visit time is how long the team is in your home; labour-hours are the total cleaning work. For example, three cleaners working for four hours is 12 labour-hours of cleaning, even though you experience a four-hour visit.
How are the scope and price set?
By actual condition and required work, not simply square footage or bedroom count. A home described as generally maintained can still have a kitchen or bathroom that needs substantially deeper work, and the scope reflects that.

How condition is verified on arrival and how scope changes are handled is explained in our service policies.

Why we don't publish a fixed price

Condition drives time. The assessment asks how each selected area looks today so the recommendation and the Scope of Work match reality. Your recommendation and price are based on the information supplied. Materially different conditions may require a Scope or price adjustment reviewed with you before additional work begins.

What changes your scope and price

  • Which areas you include
  • Current condition of kitchens, bathrooms and floors
  • Property size and layout complexity
  • Optional add-ons such as interior cabinets or interior windows

You see your full price, HST, deposit and remaining balance before you confirm anything.

How to prepare

  • Empty cabinet or fridge interiors if you have selected interior work
  • Put away valuables and fragile décor
  • Tell us about any delicate surfaces, known damage, manufacturer care requirements or areas not to be cleaned — Fresh & Shiny selects professional methods and products appropriate to the surfaces and service

Questions people ask before booking

How is a deep clean different from regular cleaning?

Deep Cleaning provides additional time and detail beyond recurring maintenance, rather than replacing it.

Will one deep clean resolve heavy buildup?

Not necessarily. Where buildup is significant, Heavy-Duty & Restoration Cleaning may be the appropriate recommendation, and we will say so before you book.

Can I book a deep clean for only part of my home?

Yes — choose the areas you want during the assessment, or start from the Specific Area Cleaning page.

Do you offer deep cleaning in Ajax?

Yes. Ajax is part of our regular Durham Region service area, along with Pickering, Whitby, Oshawa and Courtice. Complete the online assessment to see the recommended service, Scope of Work and full price before you book.
