The Basic Clean does not require the Top-to-Bottom Deluxe clean. Since we will not have taken the time to remove all the build-up dirt and debris we will only be able to dust the flat surfaces, dust your pictures, baseboards, doors, window frames/sills, wipe your kitchen appliances, wipe your kitchen and bathroom counters, clean kitchen and bathroom sinks, clean the shower/tub (We may need more time to remove any soap buildup) and vac and mop all floors. If you want your house to sparkle for the mother-in-law this is not the clean for you. If you are looking to have very basic maintenance done and are on a tight budget then this will be the perfect fit for you. This clean is not recommended for super dirty and dusty houses
