Sparklean cleaning notes
What Does a House Cleaning Include?
November 9, 2026

A standard house cleaning covers the rooms you use every day: kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms and living areas. That means dusting reachable surfaces, wiping counters and appliance fronts, cleaning and disinfecting bathrooms, shining mirrors, vacuuming, mopping and taking out the trash. A deep clean adds the details a regular visit skips, like baseboards, trim and built-up grime.
What a standard visit covers, room by room
Here is what a regular Sparklean visit includes in Colorado Springs and Monument. Every home is different, so you tell us your priority rooms when you book.
| Room | What gets cleaned |
|---|---|
| Kitchen | Counters and everyday surfaces wiped; sinks, faucets and appliance fronts cleaned; floors vacuumed and mopped; trash emptied |
| Bathrooms | Toilets, tubs, showers and fixtures cleaned and disinfected; mirrors shined; floors mopped |
| Bedrooms | Furniture, décor, fans and reachable ledges dusted; carpets and rugs vacuumed |
| Living areas | Dusting, reachable interior glass, vacuuming and mopping |
| Whole home | Trash emptied and liners replaced with ones you have on hand; extra care for the rooms you name |
Recurring clients also pick one bonus detail area each visit: blinds, baseboards, doors and door frames, or cabinet fronts.
What a deep clean adds
A deep clean spends extra time on things that build up over months: baseboards, trim, fixtures, cabinet fronts and grime in kitchens and bathrooms.
Deep cleans and move-out cleans also include the inside of the oven and the inside of the fridge (the fridge needs to be empty).
What a house cleaning does not include
- Outside windows (we clean only interior windows we can reach)
- Dishes and laundry
- Biohazards, hazardous materials or active pest problems
- Large junk removal or hauling

How to get the most from each visit
- Pick up clutter and toys so the crew can reach surfaces.
- Tell us your priority rooms, pets, and alarm or door details ahead of time.
- Point out problem spots on your first visit. Recurring clients usually see the same crew each time, so they learn your home.
What it costs
Recurring house cleaning starts at $150 per visit. Deep cleaning and move-out cleaning start at $250 to $300 for a home or apartment of about 500 to 800 square feet. Your price depends on the size and condition of your home or apartment, any extras you need, and for recurring visits, how often we come.
