How to Deep Clean Your Kitchen (Step-by-Step)

A step-by-step guide to deep cleaning your kitchen — degrease the oven, sanitise surfaces, clear cupboards and tackle the spots everyday cleaning misses.

The kitchen collects more grease and bacteria than any other room. This step-by-step deep clean gets it genuinely spotless, not just tidy.

How to Deep Clean Your Kitchen (Step-by-Step): what you need to know

Start by clearing and wiping inside cupboards and the fridge, discarding anything expired. Then degrease the oven, stovetop and extractor — the biggest sources of built-up grime.

Finish by sanitising all surfaces, taps and high-touch points, and cleaning the floor last so nothing re-soils it.
