A deep clean or seasonal reset covers what a standard turnover skips — carpets, windows, baseboards, the parts of a property guests never touch weekly. Other Savannah-area providers publish carpet cleaning around $125–$300 and window cleaning around $100–$350; Savannah STR Cleaning quotes its reset visits per property rather than against those market ranges.
Between-guest turnovers keep a property presentable for the next check-in; they don't touch a carpet that's absorbed six months of foot traffic or windows nobody's cleaned on the outside in a year. A deep clean or seasonal reset is the periodic visit that catches what the weekly rhythm never does — pulled-out furniture, grout, baseboards, light fixtures, grime that builds up slowly enough that no single turnover would ever flag it.
Hosts usually schedule one between longer bookings, before relisting a property after a slow stretch, or whenever the listing photos start looking better than the actual unit does. It isn't priced or scoped like a turnover, and Savannah STR Cleaning treats it as its own visit rather than an add-on tacked onto a same-day clean.
What does a deep clean cover that a turnover doesn't?
Carpets, interior and exterior windows, baseboards, light fixtures, the inside of cabinets and the appliances — everything a weekly turnover has neither the time nor the mandate to reach.
- Carpet extraction rather than a quick vacuum
- Windows cleaned inside and out, not just wiped where guests can reach
- Baseboards, vents, and light fixtures
- Cabinet interiors and behind large appliances
What do the add-ons typically cost in the Savannah area?
Other providers in the Savannah market publish carpet cleaning around $125–$300 and window cleaning around $100–$350, with the low end usually covering a single room or a handful of windows and the high end covering the whole property.
Pressure washing spans further — published rates run from $150 for a walkway or small deck up to $2,150 for a full exterior house wash, and the gap is almost entirely about square footage rather than anything else. Savannah STR Cleaning scopes each reset after seeing the property, not from a published price list.
How often should a vacation rental get a deep clean?
There's no universal schedule — it depends on occupancy and what the carpets and windows are actually dealing with. A property booked most weekends needs one more often than a property that only turns over a handful of times a month.
Can a deep clean be bundled with a regular turnover?
It can be scheduled back to back, but not squeezed into the same window — a deep clean takes longer than the gap between a checkout and the next check-in normally allows.
Do you pressure wash the exterior as part of a seasonal reset?
It can be added on. Exterior pressure washing is scoped and quoted separately from the interior reset since the two jobs use different equipment and take different amounts of time.
