Run five checks — a baseboard, the grout in your busiest shower, the blinds, an A/C vent, and the glass by the balcony — and your home answers the question itself. What a regular clean maintains and what a deep clean resets, in published JAS numbers: Standard from $225 for 2–3 hours and 28 items, deep from $375 for 4–6 hours and 42 items, and which to book first.
A deep clean is a 42-item checklist, not "everything." At JAS, appliance interiors, cabinet interiors and window cleaning stay separately priced unless your confirmed scope includes them: empty refrigerator $65, with food $85, inside oven $65, interior windows from $10 per pane. What else stays out — laundry, carpet shampoo, mold — and where each is published.
The 45-minute fridge routine from the JAS operating playbook: zone-by-zone emptying, why glass shelves need warm water (never hot), the baking-soda interior wipe, the puddle under the crisper drawers, and the two-minute gasket scrub.
What a regular clean covers and what a deep clean adds — grounded in the actual 28-item and 42-item checklists — when each is the right call for a Miami home, how often to book, and an honest look at when you don't need a deep clean at all.
Because a recurring rate is priced to maintain a home, not to catch one up. The published JAS numbers show the gap: a Standard clean starts at $225 for 2–3 hours and 28 items, a deep clean at $375 for a 4–6 hour visit and 42 items — and the deep-clean page names first-time customers as a reason to book one. What an initial or catch-up clean is, and when to skip it.
Strip the bed, wash what the care label allows, vacuum the bare mattress slowly, spot-clean stains with as little liquid as possible, and let everything dry completely before you remake it — in Miami, the drying is the deodorizing. Plus the honest word on baking soda and steam, and what a JAS deep clean does around the bed.
A deep clean removes dust — it does not treat anyone, and JAS promises no symptom outcome. What the 42-item checklist physically takes off baseboards, air vent covers, blinds, window sills and tracks, grout and the floor under furniture; why twelve months of air conditioning, humidity and pollen rebuild that faster in Miami; and where a cleaning visit stops.
Worth it when there is buildup a standard visit never reaches, and not when a recurring plan already kept it from accumulating. What the extra $150 at the first published rung buys — 14 more checklist items, a 4–6 hour two-person visit, photo-verified proof — and the moments in a Miami year when a deep clean pays for itself.
Three hours for a 1 BR / 1 bath, 6–8 for a 3 BR / 3 bath: the durations JAS publishes beside every deep-clean price, worked by a 2-person team. Where the hours actually go, why condition moves the clock more than square footage, what Miami humidity and salt air add, and how to plan the day around one arrival window.
Your bathrooms and kitchen do not run on the same clock as your bedrooms. A room-by-room reading of the 42-item deep-clean checklist our Miami service page publishes: which zones come due first, where pets, kids and salt air pull one room ahead of the rest, which interiors stay separately priced, and what recurring visits hold steady in between.
The smell is not in the air — it is in the crisper puddle, the gasket folds, the drain hole and the drip pan. The JAS odor sequence, what baking soda can and cannot do, and what a hurricane-season outage leaves behind. Inside-fridge work is priced separately: empty refrigerator $65, refrigerator with food $85.
Two to three times a year for most Miami homes — the cadence our deep-cleaning page publishes. What actually sets your interval: how fast buildup returns in Florida humidity, salt air and year-round pollen, a year bracketed by hurricane season rather than a northern spring, pets and open coastal balconies, and whether a recurring plan is holding the baseline down.
Ten minutes of pre-clean prep is the highest-leverage thing you can do before a deep clean. The exact checklist from the JAS operating playbook — surfaces, pets, music, and the orchid.
A deep clean at JAS starts at $375 for a 1 BR / 1 bath and runs to $595 for a 3 BR / 3 bath on the published size ladder. Why deep cleaning is priced by bedrooms and bathrooms instead of square feet, which items stay separately priced add-ons, and what Miami humidity, salt air, hurricane season and condo rules do to the hours.
