Frequently Asked Questions
What's included in a deep house cleaning?
Deep house cleaning includes top-to-bottom dusting, detailed bathroom cleaning (shower, tub, sink, fixtures), kitchen degreasing (cabinet exteriors, appliances, vents), and thorough floor cleaning including edges and baseboards. At Genesis Commercial Cleaning Inc, we treat it as a full reset, reaching areas that regular cleaning doesn't cover.How much does deep cleaning cost in Chicago?
Deep cleaning in Chicago typically costs around $400 for a premium, heavy scope, depending on home size and condition. Light cleaning services start at $150, while mid-level cleaning runs about $250. Genesis Commercial Cleaning Inc provides precise quotes once we know your square footage and specific needs.When should you schedule recurring house cleaning?
You should schedule recurring house cleaning weekly, biweekly, or monthly based on household traffic and your maintenance goals. Recurring service reduces buildup and makes deep cleaning less frequent. At Genesis Commercial Cleaning Inc, we customize plans with rotating tasks and flexible frequency adjustments.What's the difference between move-out and post-construction cleaning?
Move-out cleaning prepares empty properties for inspections or new tenants with walls, baseboards, bathrooms, and deep floors. Post-construction cleaning removes renovation dust and debris from surfaces, fixtures, and floors. Both include garbage removal but not construction materials, and typically range $500–$700.Can house cleaners work around my schedule?
Yes, professional cleaners can offer early or late appointments to fit your routine. Genesis Commercial Cleaning Inc schedules residential and commercial cleanings before or after business hours, and we adjust timing to match move-in dates or operational needs in Chicago-area homes and offices.How do you prepare for a deep cleaning?
Clear countertops, floors, and surfaces of personal items so cleaners can reach all areas efficiently. Secure pets and communicate any focus zones or fragile items. At Genesis Commercial Cleaning Inc, we recommend sharing home size and condition details upfront for an accurate scope and timeline.What makes medical office cleaning different?
Medical office cleaning requires attention to sanitation standards, touchpoints, exam areas, and restrooms where cleanliness supports patient confidence and infection control. Genesis Commercial Cleaning Inc has hospital and clinic experience, and we schedule work before or after patient hours to avoid disruption.Does recurring cleaning reduce the need for deep cleans?
Yes, regular recurring cleaning keeps buildup minimal, so deep cleaning becomes less frequent and easier when needed. Weekly or biweekly service maintains consistent surface quality. At Genesis Commercial Cleaning Inc, we adjust scope and rotating tasks based on your home's usage and priorities.What's the biggest mistake people make with move-out cleaning?
The biggest mistake is underestimating the scope needed for deposit return or inspection, especially walls, baseboards, and floors. Skipping these details can delay turnovers.
