How to Deep Clean Your Kitchen Like a Pro

The kitchen is the heart of the home — but also one of the easiest places for grime and germs to build up. Whether you cook daily or only use the microwave, here’s a step-by-step guide to deep cleaning your kitchen like a professional cleaner.

1. Clear and Declutter

Remove everything from countertops and open shelves. Toss expired food and organize essentials.

2. Degrease Surfaces

Use a degreaser or a mix of vinegar and water to clean cabinet fronts, backsplash, and stove area.

3. Scrub Appliances Inside & Out

Don’t forget inside the microwave, oven, and fridge. Remove shelves and soak them if needed.

4. Floors & Baseboards

Sweep thoroughly and mop with disinfectant. Use a brush to get into corners and along baseboards.

5. Final Touches

Replace items neatly, light a fresh candle, or open a window to air out the space.
