Frequently Asked Questions
What Is A Standard Cleaning
If you dream of walking into an immaculate home without taking the time or effort, Varsity is ready to help. With our regular standard cleaning service, we provide you with an outstanding cleaning. Our dedicated cleaners are true professionals and make sure your home is transformed into a spotless place by removing dirt, sanitizing, mopping and vacuuming
A standard clean is a surface clean ONLY. The cleaners will dust and clean all surfaces
and common areas, such as the kitchen and bathrooms, including the outside of appliances. They will vacuum and mop all areas and make the bed. The Standard Service does not include cleaning the inside of appliances such as the refrigerator, freezer, oven, inside of kitchen cabinets, inside of bathroom cabinets, inside of windows, baseboards or walls. These need to be booked separately. We do not clean blinds.
Each regular cleaning includes one (1) bathroom, kitchen, common living room and selected bedroom(s). You can always order more bathrooms and/or bedrooms to be cleaned. We also bring all cleaning supplies to the appointment.

What Is A Deep Cleaning?
The deep clean is a comprehensive top-to-bottom cleaning of your home. We recommend a deep cleaning if you have not had your apartment professionally cleaned within the past 2-6 months or if you do not regularly use a cleaning service. A deep cleaning includes all the services of a standard clean with extra hours of cleaning time, giving the cleaner more attention to areas you may have forgotten to clean over time.
Every reachable surface within your home will either be scrubbed or wiped by our professional housekeepers. The biggest difference between this and a standard cleaning lies in the amount of detail given to clean your vertical surfaces, such as baseboards, trim work, interior windows, interior & exterior cabinets/drawers, light fixtures and even doors.
Our deep cleaning housekeepers know exactly where to focus their efforts; whether it is under your bed or that corner that you haven’t attempted to clean in months. We prepare your home for easier cleanings in the future. Trust us, you won’t bedisappointed! This is perfect for making your home clean, sanitized and sparkling like brand new, just the way you want it. We also bring all cleaning supplies to the appointment, including vacuum cleaners.
The Deep Clean does not include the inside of kitchen appliances such as refrigerator, oven inside kitchen cabinets, inside of windows, etc. These need to be booked as extras.
