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 Reno 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.

In most cities, a deep clean is about moisture and grease. In Reno it is largely about dust. With normal dew points below 40 degrees in every month and just 7.35 inches of precipitation a year, grit stays dry and light and goes everywhere, including every blind slat and window track in the house.

This guide explains what a One-Time Deep Clean from TotalCare Cleaning will include, why it suits Truckee Meadows homes, and what it leaves to other trades.

What collects in a Truckee Meadows home

Wind-carried dust. The Washoe Zephyr, a gusty afternoon and evening wind from the west and southwest in summer, typically lifts a considerable amount of dust into the air. The drier edges of the Truckee Meadows grow big sagebrush, rabbitbrush and greasewood, with open ground in between. Fine soil settles into window tracks and blinds, and onto fan blades.

Smoke. Reno has wildfire smoke advisories, such as the one issued in September 2026. Fine residue can linger on surfaces after a smoky stretch, along with what Northern Nevada Public Health calls the two major contributors to winter air pollution here, motor vehicles and wood burning.

Heat and closed-up houses. About 65 days a year reach 90 degrees, so houses stay shut with the air conditioning running through summer. About 122 nights a year reach freezing, so they stay shut again through winter. Filters and vents work hard, and whatever they do not catch falls on the nearest ledge.

What the visit adds

It includes everything in a regular visit, plus the detail work below. Prices run $279.00 to $614.00 across five home sizes, starting at $279.00.

Water spots that come and go

The Truckee Meadows Water Authority reports that hardness can vary a lot by zone and by season. In its Southwest Reno zone it swung from 238 milligrams per liter in the first quarter of 2026 to 35 in the third, while Central Southeast Reno ran from 34 to 62 over four quarters. Part of the reason is that the authority adds groundwater wells from about mid April through October, which it says can change the water chemistry.

So a shower door in Reno may be fine for months and then cloud up quickly. Treating shower glass and detailing faucets clears what has formed. For more on that subject, see the hard water guide.

Which homes benefit the most

A house near the 1990 median. Those homes have had decades for dust to get into fans and vents, and many have never had a detailed cleaning. Anything with big windows and blinds will show a clear difference.

Older valley homes. About 20 percent of Reno homes were built before 1970, and those need gentle products. Paint from before 1978 gets wiped rather than scraped or sanded.

After a smoky summer. Once the air clears, a deep clean can take care of residue on blinds, sills and fans. Wait for the advisory to lift, since Northern Nevada Public Health advises against vacuuming indoors during wildfire smoke.

What it leaves to others

The inside of the oven, refrigerator and cabinets is part of the Moving Clean, not this clean. Interior windows are an add-on. Cleaners do not remediate mold, and they do not repair fire, smoke or earthquake damage or haul debris. The 2008 earthquake swarm centered on the Somersett community damaged many homes, and a problem like that needs a contractor first.

Afterward, a Recurring House Clean keeps a home from falling behind again, and the first visit of a plan is an Initial Deep Clean. If dust is your main concern, the dust guide has more ideas.

Frequently Asked Questions

Reno Deep cleaning Questions,
Answered Directly

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

A One-Time Deep Clean in Reno 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.
Once is often enough if a regular plan follows. Without one, some households like a deep clean once or twice a year, often after summer, when the Washoe Zephyr has been blowing dust around for months and the windows have been shut against the heat.
It can help with surface residue on blinds, sills, fans and baseboards. Lingering smell from serious exposure may need a specialist, and soft furnishings and ducts can hold on to it. Wait until the air clears, and change your air conditioner filter, as Northern Nevada Public Health suggests keeping it clean.
Sometimes. Hardness in the authority's zones can change a lot, and the Southwest Reno zone moved from 238 to 35 milligrams per liter within a year. Spots that form during a harder stretch stay on the glass even after the water softens, which is why treating them is part of the deep clean.
No. The inside of the oven, refrigerator and cabinets is part of the Moving Clean, which is designed for an empty home. A deep clean does include degreased cabinet fronts, soaked stovetop grates and detailed faucets, so the kitchen still gets a thorough going over.
That is a separate trade, and cleaners wipe vents in place rather than cleaning the ductwork. In a dusty climate, changing filters on time is the single most useful habit. If you have had smoke exposure or major repair work, ask an HVAC professional for advice about the ducts.
