What a deep clean includes

A professional deep clean covers areas that regular cleaning misses entirely:

  • Behind and under all appliances (fridge, washing machine, dryer).
  • Inside kitchen cabinets, drawers and pantry shelves.
  • Grout lines, tile descaling and full bathroom sanitising (toilet cistern, behind toilet).
  • Window tracks, frame edges, grilles and fly-screen frames.
  • Ceiling fans, air-cond cover and return-air grilles.
  • Full floor scrubbing including under sofas and bed frames.
  • High-touch disinfecting (light switches, door handles, remote controls).
  • Wardrobe interiors and cabinet tops.

Regular cleaning only covers visible surfaces; a deep clean reaches the grime that accumulates over months — ideal between tenancies or before a home sale.

Post-tenancy & move-out cleaning

Post-tenancy deep cleans get a vacant unit back to market standard and are priced slightly higher than a standard deep clean because the grime is usually more severe — cooking residue, limescale, mould and accumulated dust from months or years of occupancy. Key scenarios:

  • End of tenancy (landlord): required before finding a new tenant; helps preserve security deposit deduction rights by documenting condition before and after.
  • Move-in clean (new tenant): ensures you start in a properly sanitised space.
  • Pre-sale / vacant possession: a clean unit photographs better and commands higher valuations.
  • Post-renovation: removes construction dust, paint splatter and debris from a freshly renovated unit (see our renovation checklist →).

What affects deep cleaning cost?

  • Level of soiling: a unit vacant for 2 years with pet odours and heavy kitchen grease will cost more than a lightly used home.
  • Number of bathrooms: each additional bathroom adds roughly RM50–RM100 to the cost.
  • Furnished vs unfurnished: furnished units take longer (more surfaces, appliances, upholstery).
  • Post-renovation dust: construction dust is extremely fine and coats every surface — post-reno cleans are priced 20–40% higher.
  • Access timing: urgent same-day or weekend slots may carry a small surcharge.

Those five factors are what place your home on the right row of the table, from RM250 – RM400 for a studio up to RM600 – RM900 for a terrace house.

Deep clean inspection checklist (landlords)

Use this checklist to verify work has been completed before releasing deposit:

  • Kitchen: inside all cabinets, cooker hood clean, tiles degreased, sink descaled.
  • Bathrooms: grout whitened, shower head and tap descaled, toilet brush holder and cistern cleaned.
  • Floors: no residue under appliances, all grout lines clean.
  • Windows: tracks, weep holes and grilles wiped clean.
  • Ceiling fans and air-cond covers: dust-free, no mould.
  • Wardrobes: interior surfaces wiped, no residue on shelves.

How long does a deep clean take?

A 3-bedroom condo typically takes 4–6 hours with a team of 2–3 cleaners. A semi-D with 4+ bedrooms and 3+ bathrooms can take a full day. Post-renovation cleans run 30–50% longer due to fine dust infiltration. We provide an estimated completion time when you book.

The timeline varies based on the level of soiling and whether add-on services are included. For a move-in clean of a brand-new unit, expect 2–3 hours for a condo (minimal grime, just construction dust and developer handover cleaning); for a post-tenancy clean of a heavily used property, budget the full time estimates above or more. We can always extend the session if needed — just let us know upfront and we will bring a larger team.

How to prepare for a deep clean

  • Clear personal items off kitchen counters and bathroom surfaces so cleaners can reach every corner.
  • Empty the fridge if you want the interior cleaned (or specify “fridge interior” when booking).
  • Ensure power and water are on (needed for vacuum, steam mop, and disinfecting).
  • No need to provide any equipment or cleaning products — we bring everything, including industrial vacuum, steam mop, micro-fibre cloths, degreasers and tile descaler.
  • If the property is furnished, move small valuables to a safe spot before we arrive — this avoids any accidental knocking during cleaning.

How to save on deep cleaning costs

  • Book weekday slots — weekends are in higher demand.
  • Bundle with aircon servicing — we can do both in the same visit and offer a combined discount.
  • Set up a quarterly maintenance contract if you manage multiple units — per-unit rates drop significantly at volume.
  • Do a quick sweep and declutter before we arrive to minimise labour time on non-cleaning tasks.

For landlords: managing cleaning across a property portfolio

Property managers can set up recurring packages (monthly, quarterly, or between tenancies) for multiple units, with a fixed per-unit price. This removes the hassle of getting quotes each time a unit turns over. ClickBina works with landlords across the Klang Valley — we coordinate access with outgoing tenants, document condition before and after with photos, and send you a report. Useful alongside our security deposit rules guide →.

Deep clean it yourself or book a team?

A lightly used, furnished home can be deep cleaned by the owner over a weekend if you work room by room: empty and wipe the insides of kitchen cabinets and wardrobes, soak the cooker hood filters in hot soapy water, scrub grout lines with a stiff brush, and vacuum window tracks before wiping them.

Where doing it yourself stops being worth it:

  • Post-renovation dust. It is fine enough to resettle on every surface after a household vacuum passes, which is why these cleans run 30–50% longer even for a trained team.
  • Tenant handovers. A landlord who needs an inspection-ready unit, documented against the checklist above, is better served by a team working through it room by room.
  • Carpets, sofas and water tanks. Hot-water extraction needs machines most homes do not own, and an overhead tank means working at height.
  • Size. A 3-bedroom condo takes 2–3 cleaners 4–6 hours, which is two long days for one person.

  3. If we need to see the unit first — common for a heavily soiled vacant property — the site visit is RM150, waived if you book the clean.
  4. The price we confirm is flat for the scope you agree, with no hidden charges on the day.

Do I need to provide equipment?
No — we bring all professional-grade equipment and cleaning solutions including industrial vacuums, steam mops and specialist degreasers.
Do you offer recurring cleaning contracts?
Yes — monthly, bi-monthly and quarterly packages for property managers, at reduced per-unit rates.
What is a post-tenancy deep clean?
A thorough deep clean performed after a tenant moves out to return the unit to market-ready standard. It typically covers everything in a standard deep clean plus extra attention to kitchen grease, bathroom limescale and mould from prolonged occupancy.
Can you do deep cleaning after renovation?
Yes — post-renovation cleaning is one of our most common jobs. It removes fine construction dust, paint splatter and debris. It is priced slightly higher than a standard deep clean due to the extra effort involved.
Do you clean inside kitchen cabinets and the fridge?
Yes — inside all cabinets and the fridge interior are standard in our deep clean package. Let us know if you want specific areas excluded.
Is deep cleaning worth it for a rental handover?
Yes. A professionally cleaned unit rents faster, reduces the risk of deposit disputes over cleanliness, and protects your fixtures and fittings from damage caused by long-term grime build-up.
