The TotalCare Cleaning standard

What the One-Time Deep Clean
Actually Covers

The One-Time Deep Clean addresses every surface a standard maintenance clean cannot reach. Every Baton Rouge home accumulates buildup at the grout, baseboard, and appliance level that requires a systematic deep protocol, not just more time spent.

The TotalCare Cleaning standard is a detailed room-by-room checklist. Every item has a defined method, an approved cleaning product, and a measurable pass/fail criterion. The checklist is audited on every job before the visit is considered complete.

Pricing starts at $279 for 1 bedroom up to $614 for 5 bedrooms. Priced by the home. All supplies included. No hidden fees.

A deep clean is one thorough visit for the parts of a home that routine cleaning skips. It suits Baton Rouge because of a particular combination: an older housing stock and air that makes everything cling.

You can see prices in the table above. The rest of this guide explains when it helps and where it stops, so you can decide if it is the right call for your home.

What builds up in a Baton Rouge home

About 58 percent of homes in the city were built before 1980. The median year built is 1976. Decades of paint on baseboards, older tile and blinds that came with the house all hold more than a modern finish does.

Moisture adds to it. Baton Rouge averages about 62 inches of rain a year and about 96 days at 90 degrees or hotter. The LSU AgCenter warns that humid air, damp items and wet ground under a home can lead to mold, dust mites and bacteria inside. Dust clings to damp surfaces, and it turns into a film on fan blades, vents and the tops of door frames.

The water is one thing that helps. Baton Rouge Water Company lists total hardness at no more than 52 milligrams per liter in its 2025 report, which is soft. That usually means less mineral scale on shower glass than in most Southern cities. What you see on glass here is often soap film, which responds well to the treatment included in a deep clean.

The list of what is added

A deep clean includes everything in a regular visit, plus the items below. In a damp climate, nearly all of them collect sticky dust.

Where the deep clean stops

Inside the oven, refrigerator and cabinets belongs to the One-Time Moving Clean. If you are leaving a rental, go to the move-out guide instead. Interior windows are an add-on.

TotalCare Cleaning does not treat mold, repair water damage or carry out debris. If a wall feels soft, if a dark patch returns after wiping, or if a musty smell does not go away, have the moisture source looked at first. The AgCenter also points to oversized air conditioners that run short cycles without removing enough moisture, so an HVAC visit may be the real fix.

Older paint calls for caution too. In a home built before 1978, have a qualified contractor deal with flaking areas before any cleaning takes place, and let the team know where they are.

When it makes the most sense here

After repairs. Many homes in East Baton Rouge, Livingston and Ascension parishes went through major repairs after the 2016 flood, and any renovation leaves drywall dust on every ledge. Once contractors finish, a deep clean brings the home back to normal.

When you take over an older house. With a median year built of 1976, many buyers inherit fans, tracks and blinds that have not been fully cleaned in a long while. A deep clean before you unpack is much easier.

After a long gap. A family home that has gone a year or more without a thorough cleaning can feel behind even when it looks tidy. One visit handles the backlog.

To begin a plan. The first visit of a Recurring House Clean is an Initial Deep Clean, so you do not need to order one separately.

Pricing by home size

A One-Time Deep Clean runs $279.00 to $614.00 across the five sizes, priced by the home, not by the hour. A one bedroom starts at $279.00, a three bedroom, the most common size in Baton Rouge, at $395.00, and a five bedroom at $614.00. See the cost page for all three tables and some typical local homes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Baton Rouge Deep cleaning Questions,
Answered Directly

Everything Baton Rouge homeowners ask about a One-Time Deep Clean.

A One-Time Deep Clean in Baton Rouge starts at $279.00 for a 1 bed / 1 bath home of about 800 sq ft and $614.00 for a 5 bed / 4 bath home of about 4,500 sq ft on the current rate card, with $395.00 for the common 3 bed / 2 bath home. It is priced by the home, not by the hour, with supplies included.
If you are on a plan, you will rarely need another after the first. Without a plan, about once a year suits many households, often during the cooler months, when January's average high of about 62 degrees makes it comfortable to leave doors open and let things dry.
It takes care of ordinary surface film and soap residue on tile and glass. It is not a treatment for mold growing in a wall, on drywall or under flooring. If a patch keeps coming back, there is likely a moisture source that needs fixing first.
It removes settled dust from fans, blinds, vents and baseboards. The LSU AgCenter also advises mopping and wiping dust, using a HEPA vacuum and washing sheets in hot water every two weeks. Those habits between visits matter as much as any one cleaning.
Not really, if the rebuild is finished and the home is dry. Newer drywall and floors are simple to clean, while older trim that survived may hold more grime. Tell the team about any areas you still worry about, so they can point them out.
No. A move-out generally calls for a One-Time Moving Clean, which adds the inside of the oven, refrigerator and cabinets. Louisiana gives a landlord one month after the lease ends to return a deposit or itemize, so tenants generally want that fuller service.
