Deep cleaning, priced for your home
Published ranges per visit. Size, bathrooms, condition and the rooms you include determine your individual quote.
| Home size | Deep clean |

| 3–4 BR house | $410–$620 |

These are the deep-clean ranges on our pricing page. A finished basement or sunroom is included only when agreed in your quote. Requested extras cost more; we confirm the full price before booking.
Usually a same- or next-day reply. Sending a request does not reserve an appointment.
Where the extra time goes
Start with your home’s actual condition: kitchen buildup, bathrooms, reachable dust and floor edges. We follow the 54-point guide below, agree which rooms apply and quote requested extras separately.
| Area | What gets extra time | Priced separately, only if you ask |
|---|---|---|
| Kitchen | Stovetop grease, backsplash, cabinet fronts and handles, sink and faucet base, appliance fronts | Inside oven ($30–$50), inside fridge ($30–$50), inside cabinets ($40–$100) |
| Bathrooms | Extra time on the agreed bathtub, shower, sink, fixtures and toilet. Surface condition and safe access guide the work. | Cleaning does not restore worn finishes or guarantee removal of every stain. |
| Reachable dust and detail areas | Baseboards wiped and detailed, reachable fans and light fixtures, blinds, interior sills and ledges in agreed rooms | Interior window glass ($40–$80) is quoted separately; baseboards are included in a deep clean. |
| Stairs and landings | Wipe rails and banisters, vacuum stairs, clean floor corners and edges where safely accessible. | Tell us the levels and stairs to include before we quote. |
| Entry and lower level | Light mudroom cleanup and agreed floors. A finished basement is included only if that level is in the quote. | Garage, unfinished-basement and screen work is not part of the listed scope; ask us to confirm any separate request. |
Add-on prices are the ranges on our pricing page. We confirm the exact number before we book.
No dishwashing or washing, drying or folding clothes. Laundry and mudroom areas still get light cleanup only, even on a deep clean. Bed-linen changes are $20 per bedroom on request. Microwave and storage interiors also require a separate quote.

Daniela Marque’s crew. No subcontractors. NJ MBE #A0654-63. Tell us about a missed agreed task within 24 hours and we re-clean it at no charge. Guarantee terms.
Extra time for buildup. Quoted before we book.
We add time on kitchens, baths, reachable sills, fans and entry floors when the house needs more than a regular visit. Send your address, rooms, access and what is built up. Oven, cabinet and fridge interiors are extra and priced first — a deep clean does not add them by default. After this visit, recurring work follows our regular Mountainside house-cleaning visits.
Point out where grime has settled before the visit, whether that is soap film on shower glass, dust along baseboards or grease on the stovetop, and we plan the extra time around those spots.
The deep-clean quote covers that one visit. Regular visits you book afterward are priced as ordinary house cleaning, not at the deep-clean rate.
Deep cleaning or regular upkeep?
Choose a deep clean when surfaces have accumulated dirt or detail areas need more attention than your usual upkeep allows. Once the home is easier to maintain, a recurring visit can help keep kitchens, bathrooms, and floors on track. We assess the condition and confirm the tasks rather than assuming every home needs the same amount of work.
Plan the areas that need extra attention
- Kitchen: point out grease or buildup on the stovetop, backsplash, counters, and cabinet exteriors. Inside the oven, refrigerator, microwave, or cabinets is extra.
- Bathrooms: tell us which tubs, showers, sinks, fixtures, and surfaces need the most attention so we can plan around them.
- Dust and floors: the checklist includes baseboard dusting, interior windowsills within reach, reachable fans and light fixtures, stair rails, and floor edges.
- For a spring-cleaning visit , highlight pollen on indoor surfaces; in fall, point out tracked-in leaves and grit. Share the actual condition instead of waiting for a fixed seasonal date.
- Before arrival, put away loose belongings and tell us about pets, delicate finishes, stairs, access, and any rooms you want included. Confirm requested extras before booking.
For ongoing upkeep afterward, compare a weekly, biweekly or monthly schedule after the deep clean . If the property will be empty, review move-in cleaning or move-out cleaning so the quote fits your move.

Helpful guide: Deep Clean vs Standard Clean (NJ)
Deep cleaning: scope, price and planning
What does a deep clean include, and which extras cost more?
A deep clean gives extra time to the rooms you agree to include: kitchens, baths, floors, dusting, high-touch surfaces, reachable fans, sills and door-frame tops. Accessible interior sills, reachable fans and entry floors are included when those rooms are booked, including pollen and tracked-in grit. We follow the 54-point guide where surfaces are present and safely accessible. We do not wash dishes or laundry. Appliance, cabinet and storage interiors and interior window glass are separately quoted; baseboards are included in the deep clean. Screen work is not part of the listed scope; ask us to confirm any separate request.
How much does a deep clean cost?
Deep cleaning is quoted per home: $260–$380 for a 1–2 BR apartment, $340–$500 for a 2–3 BR house, $410–$620 for a 3–4 BR house, and $540–$900+ for a 4+ BR / luxury home. Size, bathrooms, condition and agreed rooms affect the quote. Requested extras cost more. We confirm the full price before booking. Recurring cleaning after the reset is quoted separately.
Does my home need a deep clean or a regular visit?
Most of the time, yes. A deep clean sets the starting point, and a regular first visit is possible when our crew has inspected the home before we agree the work.
What should I send and prepare before the visit?
Send the full address, rooms, access instructions and where buildup needs extra attention. Put away loose belongings and tell us about pets, delicate finishes, stairs and any rooms you want included. We reach Mountainside from Kenilworth on Route 22. We agree the time, checklist and price before booking; appliance and cabinet interiors are quoted separately.
Do you bring products and a vacuum?
For a deep clean we bring all the cleaning products and our own vacuum. If you continue with regular visits, we still bring our vacuum and use your products: you can buy the ones you like, or we can buy them for you and give you the receipt.
How is deep cleaning different from move-out or Airbnb cleaning?
Occupied-home reset = this page. Empty handover = move-out. Guest-out / guest-in = Airbnb turnover ($140–$260+, window required).
Before we book your visit
Payment
We accept Zelle, Venmo and checks.
Weekday appointments
Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
Time for your home
It depends on the size and condition of the home. We don’t rush: Daniela checks every room before the crew moves on to the next, so larger homes and first visits take longer.
Tipping
Tips are never expected, but always appreciated.
Changing your appointment
Please give us 48 hours' notice to cancel or reschedule so we can offer the time to another client.
Keys and access
No, you don’t need to be home. Providing a key or access code is optional and your choice. If you give us a key for recurring visits, we keep it on file, labeled, for your scheduled visits and return it whenever you ask or when service ends. We only accept one if you choose to give it to us. Share door, lockbox or alarm codes privately when arranging access, not in the quote form. Daniela is at every cleaning, and we’ve lived in Kenilworth since 2007, so our reputation here means everything to us.
Missed agreed tasks
Report a missed agreed task within 24 hours of the visit; we will re-clean that task at no charge.
The 24 hours is the reporting deadline, not a promise to return within 24 hours. Guarantee terms.
