Kitchen Deep Cleaning Guide: Grease, Appliances and Surfaces

Deep cleaning a kitchen stove and metal surface

Kitchen grime comes in different forms — grease, food residue, limescale and ordinary dust. That's why using one strong product on every surface is a mistake. Stainless steel, natural stone, painted fronts and glass all need different care.

What deep cleaning covers

A deep clean typically covers worktops, the stove, the outside of appliances, the sink, the backsplash, cabinet fronts, and any accessible hard-to-reach spots. The oven, fridge, or the inside of cabinets need to be flagged separately — they're time-consuming and require clearing the space out first.

How to handle grease

A degreasing product needs time to work — not an immediate hard scrub. A small test spot comes first, then the surface is treated and any product residue is thoroughly removed. Surfaces that touch food need to end up clean with no leftover product on them. For a fuller kitchen refresh, this service is often booked alongside a full apartment clean.

Frequently asked questions

Is the inside of the oven included

Only if it's specified in the order's scope.

Are cabinets cleaned inside

Yes, when they're empty and it's booked in advance.

Can old grease be removed

In most cases, significantly — but the result depends on the surface and how long it's been there.
