A deep clean is a detailed, corner-to-corner clean that adds the inside of the oven, fridge, cabinets and drawers, plus baseboards and door frames, to everything in a standard clean. Good Maid deep cleans start at $277, and most first-time customers start here before switching to regular visits.

When to book a deep clean
- Your first professional clean — it resets the baseline so future visits can be lighter and cheaper.
- It's been three months or more since the last thorough clean.
- Seasonal resets — spring cleaning, or before the holidays when people are coming over.
- Before or after guests stay, or after a long stretch of being too busy to keep up.
- Before switching to a recurring plan, so your regular cleaner starts from a clean slate.
If you're moving out or moving into an empty home, the move in/out clean covers even more — every appliance, window tracks, closets and storage.
