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 Lansing 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.

Lansing's housing is old enough to have seen a lot of living. With a median year built of 1959, a typical house has been through several owners, many winters and a good number of partial cleanups. A One-Time Deep Clean goes through the home once, thoroughly, and it reaches the places that weekly tidying skips.

Here is what the visit will include, where it matters most in local homes, and where its limits lie.

What builds up in a Lansing house

Census estimates show about 51 percent of the city's homes were built before 1960 and about 80 percent before 1980. Older houses have more of what holds dirt: paint ridges on trim, deep window tracks, seams in tile and old vent covers. Across Ingham County the median home was built in 1971, and about 65 percent of homes date from before 1980, so this is not only a city issue.

Weather adds to it. About 142 days a year reach a low at or below freezing, so the house stays shut for a long stretch, and whatever gets tracked in stays in. On top of that there is calcium. The Board of Water & Light softens its water to about 5.7 grains per gallon of hardness, but it notes that calcium carbonate can still build up at faucets.

The detail list for the visit

Beyond the regular care of kitchens, bathrooms, surfaces and floors, a One-Time Deep Clean will add the following work. Prices run $279.00 to $614.00 across five home sizes, starting at $279.00.

Where this helps most in older Lansing houses

Vents and registers deserve a mention, because they are easy to ignore. A season of closed windows sends dust around the house, and it settles on those covers along with the blades of ceiling fans. Wiping them in place makes a visible difference at floor and ceiling level, and that is usually where the house has been looking tired.

A kitchen in a home of this age may have been updated in pieces, so cabinet fronts can vary in finish. Degreasing is done with care, testing where needed. Original tile in a bathroom gets mild products, not a harsh acid, since old grout and glazing can be damaged by strong chemicals. The aim is to clean what is there, not to strip it back.

One caution applies to anything old. Peeling or chipping paint is a job for the right professional, and a cleaner will not scrape or sand it. Point it out before the visit.

Apartments and newer homes

About 19 percent of Lansing's housing units are in buildings of 10 or more units, and the deep clean suits those homes as well, especially after a few years of one tenancy. Kitchens and baths are smaller, so more of the visit goes to blinds, tracks and vents.

Newer houses in the metro area have a different pattern. A house in Bath Township, where about 45 percent of homes were built in 2000 or later, has fewer years of grime, though it may have more rooms and more glass. A deep clean there is mostly about catching up on fans, shower enclosures and baseboards. The Lansing cost page shows how each size reads.

What stays outside a deep clean

Inside the oven, the refrigerator and the cabinets belong to the Moving Clean, which is the service to choose for an empty home. Interior windows are an add-on. Mold or water damage remediation and hauling furniture or debris are not offered with any clean.

Discolored water is also worth a word here. The Board of Water & Light says occasional orange, yellow or brown tap water usually comes from iron in its cast iron mains. If that happens on the day of a visit, tell your cleaner, since wiping with it can leave marks.

Once the reset is finished, the recurring cleaning guide can help you decide how to hold that level.

Frequently Asked Questions

Lansing Deep cleaning Questions,
Answered Directly

Everything Lansing homeowners ask about a One-Time Deep Clean.

A One-Time Deep Clean in Lansing 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.
A regular visit keeps up kitchens, baths, dusting and floors. A deep clean adds hand washed baseboards, wet-wiped blinds, window tracks, wiped fans and vents, degreased cabinet fronts, treated shower glass, detailed faucets and soaked stovetop grates. It suits an older Lansing home that has not had that work for some time.
The Board of Water & Light suggests white vinegar for breaking down calcium carbonate at faucets. Use it with care. It can harm natural stone and some plated finishes, so test first and rinse well. During a deep clean, faucets are detailed with products chosen to suit the fixture.
It helps with the dust that has already settled. With about 142 freezing days a year, a house stays closed for a long time. Clearing fans, vents, blinds and baseboards removes what would otherwise get stirred up again, though it will not take the place of a furnace filter change.
A plan already begins with an Initial Deep Clean, so you would not need a separate one. The One-Time Deep Clean is for a home that wants one thorough visit without any ongoing schedule. Both cover the same detail work, and the choice comes down to what happens next.
Generally yes, using mild products and soft tools, and about 80 percent of Lansing homes fall into that age group. Peeling or chipping paint should be addressed by the right professional before a visit, since cleaning is not the place to disturb it. Mention any concerns ahead of time.
