Deep Cleaning Cost (2026 Guide)

Deep cleaning a house costs a national average of $260 on Angi, with most homeowners spending $180-$375, and a national average of $300 on Fixr, which publishes a range of $200-$400. Yelp puts the typical deep cleaning quote at $140-$350 based on 112,527 real customer quotes. One sourcing note up front: Yelp’s figures are marketplace quote data with a different scope than publisher cost estimates, so they are presented alongside rather than reconciled with the Angi and Fixr ranges. Figures as published (January 2025 to October 2026).¹²³

Deep cleaning cost by home size

Fixr prices deep cleaning by square footage with estimated crew time, while Angi publishes broader square-footage bands. Both publishers state the per-square-foot rate runs $0.10-$0.30; the figures match exactly, and matching figures alone do not establish independent corroboration.¹²

Angi groups costs into four broader bands:¹

Fixr also prices by bedroom and bathroom count, which is how many companies build quotes:²

Deep cleaning cost by type of service

Angi prices five types of deep cleaning service, with specialized work costing more than a standard deep clean. Fixr separately prices move-in/move-out jobs and sanitation-level cleaning. Angi’s move-in/move-out range ($140-$500) is wider than Fixr’s per-property figures ($100-$200 apartment, $200-$500 larger home); the differing scopes are shown plainly below.¹²

Fixr adds that a standard deep clean of a three-bedroom home runs $150-$310, while a sanitation-level clean of the same home costs upwards of $800, with the higher price reflecting protective equipment and specialized products.²

Deep cleaning cost by room

Both publishers price individual rooms, but with different stated scopes: Angi’s table labels figures “average cost” without a per-visit or per-job unit, while Fixr’s figures are per visit. The columns are not equivalent, so they are shown with their own units rather than combined. Kitchens and bathrooms cost the most to deep clean on both publishers’ lists.¹²

Cost by cleaning frequency

One-time deep cleans cost more per visit than recurring service. Fixr prices a one-time deep clean at $200-$600 and publishes annual contract costs by visit frequency for a two-cleaner crew; Angi reports recurring-service discounts of 10%-30% compared with single visits. Angi also reports that most experts recommend deep cleaning every three to six months.¹²

Hourly rates and company pricing

Angi prices labor at $25-$70 per hour for a single cleaner and $50-$120 per hour for two cleaners, with per-room rates of $25-$60 and minimum service fees of $100-$150. Fixr prices $25-$60 per hour per cleaner and $50-$120 per hour for two cleaners; the two-cleaner figures match Angi’s exactly, and matching figures alone do not establish independent corroboration. Fixr also publishes hourly rates for eight national cleaning companies, ranging from $40-$70 per hour (MaidPro) to $100-$150 per hour (Maid Brigade).¹²

Add-on costs

Both publishers price common add-on services. Units differ by publisher, so each figure carries its own stated unit. Two cells diverge sharply: Angi prices pet stain and odor removal at $10-$100 more per room, while Fixr prices pet odor removal at $500-$800 per visit; both are shown as published.¹²

Sourcing notes and discrepancies

• Angi and Fixr label their size and service-type tables only “average cost” without stating per-visit or per-project units; affected cells and columns are marked “unit not stated” rather than inferred as per-project. Fixr’s move-in/move-out figures carry the page’s stated per-property scope.
• Angi states this page was created using automation technology and fact-checked and edited by an Angi editor; its figures are presented with that disclosure.¹
• Angi’s summary text prices the carpet cleaning add-on at $150-$200 per room, while its add-on table prices the same service at $75-$200 per room or item; the table figure is used above and the difference is disclosed.¹
• Angi and Fixr publish identical per-square-foot rates ($0.10-$0.30) and identical two-cleaner hourly rates ($50-$120). These are separately attributed publisher estimates; matching figures alone do not establish independent corroboration.¹²
• Fixr’s add-on table lists baseboard cleaning as “75 – $125/visit” with the dollar sign missing on the lower bound as published; the row is omitted above because the figure cannot be confirmed from the page’s own content.²
• Yelp’s $140-$350 typical range comes from 112,527 real customer quotes on its platform, a different scope than Angi’s and Fixr’s editorial cost estimates, so the figures are not directly like-for-like.³
• Fixr’s page is dated January 31, 2025, older than the Angi (September 2026) and Yelp (October 2026) pages; all figures are shown as published on those dates.

DIY deep cleaning

Both publishers note that decluttering and handling light tidying before a professional visit reduces billed time. For readers doing the deep clean themselves, the main cost is supplies. For DIY cleaning products, browse all-purpose cleaners at The Home Depot (non-affiliate link).
