Deep Clean
The Reset Your Home Didn’t Know It Needed
At Red Kingdom Cleaning, we absolutely love taking a home that needs a little bit of love — or a home that needs a full overhaul — and bringing it back to life.
There is something deeply satisfying about a true Kansas City House Cleaning Service before-and-after. Like, the kind where you walk into a room and immediately feel your shoulders drop because the space just feels lighter. We love those moments not just because the pictures look good (even though they do), but because we know what it changes for you.
A clean home impacts your physical health. It impacts your mental health. It impacts how you sleep, how you think, and how you function. When your home feels messy or grimy, it’s like having a browser open in your brain with 37 tabs, and one of them is always playing background music you can’t turn off. When your home is reset, that noise gets quieter. You can breathe again.
That’s why one of the services we recommend to pretty much everyone is a deep clean.
Especially if you haven’t had your home cleaned in a while, have lots of pets, have little kids, or you’ve been living in a “we’ll catch up later” season (which, for most of us, becomes “we’ll catch up never”). But honestly, even the cleanest people benefit from a deep clean because there are areas that just don’t get touched during normal day-to-day upkeep.
Who Is a Kansas City House Cleaning Service Deep Clean For?
To be honest: everyone.
But here are the most common reasons people book one:
1) First-Time Clients (The Best Way to Start)
If you’re a first-time client and you’re wanting recurring Kansas City House Cleaning Service maintenance cleaning, we highly recommend starting with a deep clean. This gives your home a clean baseline, and from there, your maintenance cleans actually maintain instead of constantly trying to catch up.
Think of it like resetting the home back to zero — and then we keep it there.
2) The Spring Reset
There’s something about spring that makes people want their home to feel fresh again. Maybe it’s the sunlight exposing dust you didn’t know existed (rude), or maybe it’s just that everyone wants a clean slate. A deep clean is perfect for that.
3) Post-Holiday Recovery
Christmas glitter shows up in places that defy logic. Pine needles somehow migrate into rooms that never had a tree. Extra cooking means extra grease in the kitchen and extra traffic everywhere. A deep clean gets your home back to basics.
4) After Someone Has Been Sick
If you’ve had sickness go through the house, you already know. You don’t just want things to look clean — you want them to be clean. A Kansas City House Cleaning Service deep clean allows us to sanitize high-touch areas, clean surfaces thoroughly, and help remove the lingering “we’ve been battling germs” vibe. We clean and disinfect the spaces people actually use and touch every day.
5) After a Remodel or Construction Project
Remodel dust is sneaky. Even if it was just one bathroom or one kitchen project, the dust has a way of spreading everywhere. It settles on window sills, along baseboards, on shelves, and in corners. A deep clean helps restore a dust-free environment so you can actually enjoy the new space you paid for.
6) Life Got Busy and the Home Fell Behind
This is more common than people admit — and we totally get it. Sometimes you’re just in a season where you’re giving everything you have to work, kids, family, and survival. The home gets neglected. A Kansas City House Cleaning Service deep clean gets you back to a manageable place without you spending your weekends doing nothing but scrubbing.
How Is a Deep Clean Different From a Maintenance Clean?
Great question.
A Kansas City House Cleaning Service maintenance clean is meant to keep a home at a consistent level of cleanliness once the space is already in good shape. It focuses on the standard routine items you need regularly.
A Lee’s Summit House Cleaning Service deep clean is different because we go beyond routine. On a deep clean, we touch every surface and we get into the areas that most people skip because they’re time-consuming, annoying, or simply easy to overlook.
On a deep clean, we focus on things like:
- Floorboards and baseboards (scrubbed, not just wiped)
- Walls, doors, and door frames
- Door handles and light switches (the “everyone touches it constantly” zones)
- Vents and returns
- Windowsills and window tracks
- Ceiling fans and light fixtures
- Fronts of cabinets and the buildup that happens around handles
- Above cabinets (yes, that layer of dust that loves living up there)
- Fronts of appliances
- Inside the oven
- Inside the refrigerator
- Showers scrubbed more thoroughly
- Sinks cleaned and polished
- Detailed mirror and glass cleaning
- Full sweep + vacuum + mop done with intention
And yes — your home can truly feel better than new after a deep clean, because new homes are often dusty too. (If you know, you know.)
“That’s a Lot… How Long Does It Take?”
You’re right. It is a lot.
This is not something that fits into our normal 1.5–3 hour Lee’s Summit House Cleaning Service maintenance schedule.
A deep clean is an all-hands-on-deck, all-day type of event. Depending on your home size, the level of buildup, and what you request, our Lee’s Summit House Cleaning Service team of four can take anywhere from 5 to 10 hours.
Ten hours?
Yes.
Because during this time we aren’t just “making it look clean.” We’re scrubbing, detailing, and restoring.
For example:
The Shower
Shower floors can hold onto grime in a way that makes people feel personally attacked. We scrub them thoroughly, detail the edges, and clean shower glass with real care. Hard water spots don’t just magically disappear, and we don’t pretend they do. We actually work on them.
The Oven
Your oven alone can take around an hour. That’s scraping, scrubbing, cleaning racks, and removing baked-on grime that has been building for who knows how long. You don’t want to spend your Saturday doing that, and we don’t blame you.
Above the Cabinets
Above-cabinet dust is its own ecosystem. It can be thick, sticky, and sometimes mixed with kitchen grease (which makes it even more fun). Getting up there, removing it properly, and scrubbing off caked-on buildup takes time.
Cabinet Fronts
Cabinet fronts collect drips, fingerprints, splatters, and residue around the handles. We clean them thoroughly, but here’s the bonus: this process often brings back shine and makes the wood look refreshed again. It’s one of those details that makes your kitchen look dramatically better even if you didn’t realize it was dull.
The Goal: A Home That Feels Like a Reset
Deep cleaning isn’t about perfection. It’s about peace.
It’s about walking into your kitchen and feeling calm instead of immediately noticing everything you “should” clean. It’s about bathrooms that feel fresh. Floors that don’t feel gritty. Bedrooms that feel relaxing again. It’s about taking your home from “we’re surviving” to “okay… we’re back.”
“Okay, I’m Sold. What Do I Do Now?”
I love that question.
First — you already did step one. You found us. Congratulations!
Second, we need to get to know you. To get a hold of us, you can either reach out through our Lee’s Summit House Cleaning Service website form, or you can call or text our number: (816) 623-1497. Bonus points if you give us some information about your Lee’s Summit House Cleaning Service needs (beds, baths, square footage, pets, what you need most) so we can give you the most accurate estimate.
Once we’re in contact, we’ll set up a walkthrough. That’s where we see the home, assess time and cost, and build a curated Lee’s Summit House Cleaning Service checklist for our Red Kingdom Cleaning team to follow.
After the walkthrough, our team sends you a quote along with the checklist for your review. From there, you can add or remove items based on what matters most to you. Sometimes we send a second quote for an initial deep clean (this is the “make it extra special” option — floorboards, hard-to-reach spaces, the stuff that takes it to the next level).
Once approved, you’re scheduled. You’ll receive notifications plus a one-day reminder. On cleaning day, our team arrives with everything they need. All we need from you is a way to access the home — a key, code, or someone to let us in.
If your home needs a reset, we are ready. We love this work, and we love the peace it brings families.
Reach out today — we can’t wait to serve you.
