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 Savannah 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.

Warm, wet air changes how a house gets dirty. Dust that would stay dry and loose elsewhere clings to a fan blade here, and fine grit from outdoors settles into tracks that never quite dry out in summer. Routine cleaning keeps the middle of each room in shape, but the edges slowly fall behind.

That is the job of a deep clean. This guide explains what the service covers, when it makes the most sense in a Savannah home and where its limits are.

Why the edges of a Savannah room fall behind

Airport records show about 80 days a year at 90 degrees or hotter, summer lows near 73 degrees and relative humidity near 78 percent in August and September. Windows often stay shut with the air conditioning on, while condensation builds on cold glass and sills. Dust stuck to damp surfaces does not simply wipe away the way it does in a dry climate.

Outdoors, about 48 inches of rain a year and the live oaks that gave the city its old Forest City nickname keep grit and leaf litter moving toward your door. Over months that shows up in window tracks, along the bottom edge of doors and on baseboards in the rooms nearest the back steps.

What the visit adds

A One-Time Deep Clean includes everything in a routine visit plus a list of slower details. Baseboards are washed by hand. Blinds are wet-wiped, window tracks are cleared, and ceiling fans and vents are wiped in place. Cabinet fronts are degreased, stovetop grates are soaked, faucets are detailed and shower glass is treated for hard water spots.

The inside of the oven, refrigerator and cabinets is not included. Those belong to the Moving Clean, which is designed for empty homes. Interior windows are an add-on. Visible mold on a wall or a smell that returns after cleaning points to a moisture problem, and that belongs with a remediation company rather than a house cleaner.

Old houses in the historic neighborhoods

About 38 percent of the city's homes were built before 1960 and about 16 percent in 1939 or earlier. The Victorian district just south of downtown was developed mainly from 1870 to 1910, and Ardsley Park followed in 1909 and 1910. Those rooms may have tall baseboards, picture rails and old sash windows with a lot of ledges to catch dust.

They also need gentle work. Cleaners use damp cloths and mild products, test on a hidden spot and leave aged paint alone, with no sanding or scraping. If you know of peeling paint from before 1978, say so before the visit. See the seasonal guide for how to time this work around the local weather.

Newer homes from Pooler to Richmond Hill

A home built in the last 25 years gets dirty differently. About 78 percent of Pooler homes date from 2000 or later, and about 69 percent of those in Richmond Hill do too. Trim tends to be simpler. Bathrooms are more numerous and larger, with glass enclosures, stone counters and many fixtures to detail.

Water may matter more than you expect. The Floridan Aquifer supplies Richmond Hill through four deep wells, and it provides most of Savannah's main system too. The city's reports do not publish a hardness figure, so judge by what you see on your own shower glass. If you see film or spots there, that is a sensible place to focus the visit.

Getting ready for the visit

Pick up from floors and counters so the time goes to detail. Mention fragile fixtures, unsealed stone and any windows that stick in humid weather, since swollen sashes should not be forced. Put pets somewhere comfortable, and move small breakables off high shelves.

If a storm is approaching, reschedule. The city asks people to secure carts and loose items before high winds, and a deep clean should wait until the weather and any local flooding have passed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Savannah Deep cleaning Questions,
Answered Directly

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

A One-Time Deep Clean in Savannah 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.
Many households like late May, before the wettest stretch begins in June, or October, once late summer humidity has eased and November's drier weather is close. Either timing clears what built up over the prior season. Move-in days and the weeks before hosting guests are also natural moments.
It can often clean surface mildew from tile and grout in a shower. Staining that goes deep or returns quickly usually points to a moisture problem. With summer dew points near 72 degrees here, good ventilation matters. A cleaner does not perform remediation, so call a specialist if it spreads.
No. It degreases cabinet fronts and soaks stovetop grates, but the inside of the oven, refrigerator and cabinets belongs to the Moving Clean. That service is designed for empty homes, which fits the many Savannah rentals changing hands, since about 55 percent of occupied homes here are rented.
Yes, with the right methods. About 16 percent of homes in the city date from 1939 or earlier. Damp cloths, soft brushes and mild products suit their old paint, plaster and wood. Scraping and sanding are never part of the visit, and any peeling areas should be pointed out first.
