Why it is different here
Deep cleaning tasks Tempe homes need most
The 1970s and 1980s are the two biggest decades in Tempe's housing, so many homes here have older tile, older shower doors and grout lines that have gone gray with age. Hard water adds a layer on top. The city's 2025 report shows hardness readings from 177 to 557 ppm, and the white scale it leaves gathers on chrome, glass and drain rims. A deep clean works each of those with a product suited to the finish, then moves on to baseboards, door frames, fan blades and vents.
Getting in. Parking near ASU is tight, so we plan arrivals; South Tempe streets are open with driveway parking.

Local notes
Planning deep cleaning for a Tempe home
Tempe's water FAQ points out that hard water can take more soap and detergent to get the same clean, and in a shower that shows up as two layers: white mineral scale on the glass and a soap film over it. A deep clean takes both off the glass, the tile walls and the door track, then clears the chrome spouts, the sink rims around each drain and the ring inside every toilet bowl.
Most of the city's supply comes from the Salt River Project, topped up with groundwater and Colorado River water, and the city says the mix shifts with the seasons and the year's runoff. The scale on your fixtures is the record of that mix, so the team looks at the glass, the chrome and the toilet ring first and matches the descaler to what it finds.
Many Tempe homes from the 1970s and 1980s pair original tile with a newer kitchen or bath, so the team checks each surface before choosing a product, scrubs the grout along the older tile, and works baseboards, door frames, fan blades and vents from high to low. If the deep clean leads into recurring visits, the same team returns where possible.

Truly an amazing company. Called them on Sunday to schedule a move out clean on Monday. It was a short notice but they were able to work with me. The two ladies who came to do the clean were so professional and the attention to detail was phenomenal. Highly recommend this company.
Tempe deep cleaning questions
How hard is Tempe's water, and what does it mean for a deep clean?
The city's 2025 report gives 12.3 grains per gallon on average and 32.6 at the top of its range. On a deep clean that means descaling the shower glass and door tracks, the chrome around faucets, the sink rims and the toilet ring. If the glass has been etched over the years, we tell you before starting, since etching may need a restoration product.
Do older homes near ASU and in Maple-Ash need anything different on a deep clean?
Mostly more care with surfaces. Older homes near campus often keep their original tile and fixtures beside newer updates, so the team checks each surface before choosing a product and picks one that suits older glazes. The grout gets a full scrub, the fixtures are descaled, and the work runs from ceiling fans and vents down to the floors, which are done last.
Do I still need a deep clean if my Tempe home has a water softener?
Often, yes. The city's water FAQ notes that softeners help reduce hardness but are limited in what they can do. Soap film, dust on fans and vents, grime along baseboards and dirt in grout build up either way, and those are what a deep clean resets. In a softened home there is usually less scale to lift from the glass and fixtures.
When should I book a deep clean?
Before starting a recurring schedule, after a renovation, at the change of season, or before hosting. Most recurring clients start with one.
