Our Deep Cleaning Services

Residential Deep Cleaning Service in Racine, Kenosha & Southeastern Wisconsin

Deep cleaning in Wisconsin is about tackling the seasonal buildup. From salt tracks in the winter to pollen in the spring, our checklist targets the allergens hidden in your baseboards and the outside of HVAC vents. Whether you're preparing for a new season, moving into a new home, recovering from a long stretch without professional cleaning, or just want your home reset from top to bottom — our deep cleaning service is built for exactly that.

First impressions matter. Whether you run a medical office in Anderson Park in Kenosha or a retail boutique in Mount Pleasant , we provide a tailored cleaning schedule that fits your operating hours.

Illuminated Cleaning Co. is a licensed and insured, family-owned cleaning service serving Racine, Kenosha, Caledonia, Delavan, Lake Geneva, Pleasant Prairie, Mount Pleasant, and surrounding southeastern Wisconsin communities.

Our deep cleans follow a room-by-room, top-to-bottom process covering every surface, appliance, fixture, vent, baseboard, and overlooked corner in your home. Here's exactly what we do:

General Deep Clean Principles

Work top-to-bottom, left-to-right in each room.

Use appropriate tools: microfiber cloths, extendable dusters, magic erasers, scrub brushes, vacuums, and friendly or heavy-duty cleaners.

Empty rooms/floors as much as possible for best results.

Focus on high-touch surfaces, grout, baseboards, light fixtures, vents, and overlooked spots.

Sanitize vs. just clean (especially kitchens/bathrooms).
