Kitchen, bathrooms, living room, bedrooms.
Deep cleaning is one of those things you keep putting off because it feels like a huge, undefined task. Where do you start? What actually counts as 'deep cleaning'? And if you're sharing a space, how do you split the work fairly?
doth.is breaks deep cleaning into a room-by-room checklist: kitchen, bathrooms, living areas, and bedrooms. Each room has specific tasks like 'clean inside oven' and 'scrub tile grout' — not vague items like 'clean kitchen.' Share with your household to divide rooms and track progress.
4 rooms: kitchen, bathrooms, living areas, bedrooms — each with 7-8 tasks
Specific, actionable tasks like 'degrease range hood' not 'clean kitchen'

A deep clean covers: kitchen (inside oven, fridge shelves, behind appliances, range hood), bathrooms (tile grout, toilet base, exhaust fan), living areas (baseboards, under furniture, ceiling fans, windows), and bedrooms (mattress flip, wash all bedding, closet organization).
A full deep clean of a 2-bedroom apartment takes 4-6 hours for one person, or 2-3 hours if divided between two people. Breaking it into a room-by-room checklist makes it manageable — you can even spread it across two days.
Create a deep cleaning checklist on doth.is and share it with your roommates. Each person claims rooms or specific tasks. Everyone can see what's been done and what's left. This prevents arguments about who cleaned what.
Deep clean quarterly (every 3 months) for most homes. High-traffic areas like kitchens and bathrooms may need it monthly. In between deep cleans, maintain with a weekly cleaning routine that covers vacuuming, surfaces, and bathrooms.
