Specialty cleanup.
Beyond a deep clean.
Two branches under one service: heavy-duty property cleanup for smoke and nicotine residue, neglected units, post-tenant messes, squatter situations, and rental turnover recovery, plus a premium whole-home detail clean for well-kept homes where the owner wants vents, fixtures, trim, cabinets, and detail areas handled at a much deeper level than a standard deep clean. Every job is custom quoted after photos or a walkthrough.
Who it’s built for
Property people.
Heavy conditions.
Sized and priced for property professionals and homeowners dealing with heavier-than-normal conditions.
Landlords
Recovering rental units between tenants, before listing, or after extended damage.
Property managers
Rental turnover recovery, neglected units, and post-tenant cleanup across a portfolio.
Real estate investors
Restoring property condition before showing, listing, or reoccupancy.
Realtors
Pre-listing resets for properties that need more than a normal deep clean.
Homeowners
Two paths: dealing with neglected conditions, smoke residue, or heavy buildup at home. Or a well-kept home where the owner wants vents, fixtures, trim, cabinets, and detail areas handled at a much deeper level than a standard deep clean.
Small commercial property owners
Smaller commercial spaces that need heavy-duty cleaning rather than recurring janitorial.
Two branches · one service
Recovery, or the most
detailed clean we offer.
Both branches are custom quoted, both involve expanded scope and labor, and both sit above standard deep cleaning. The right one depends on the property condition and what you want done.
Branch 1
Heavy-duty property cleanup
For properties in heavier-than-normal condition. The work is more physical, more time-intensive, and often needs stronger products and more time on-site than a standard deep clean.
- Neglected apartments and units
- Post-tenant messes
- Squatter / unauthorized occupancy situations
- Smoke and nicotine residue cleaning
- Heavy buildup in kitchens and bathrooms
- Rental turnover recovery
Branch 2
Premium whole-home detail clean
For well-kept homes where the owner wants vents, fixtures, trim, cabinets, and detail areas handled at a much deeper level than a standard or Ultimate Deep Clean. A premium, custom-quoted whole-home reset.
- Homeowners who want an extremely detailed reset
- Larger homes needing top-to-bottom detail work
- Seasonal or pre-listing whole-home resets
- Moving into a home and wanting it deeply reset
- High-end residential detail cleaning
Branch 2 · scope examples
What a premium whole-home detail clean can include
Every premium detail clean is custom quoted because labor, access, condition, and selected detail items vary heavily. The list below is what we most often include. Your scope is confirmed before the job.
- Remove and wash accessible vent covers where safely accessible
- Clean return covers where safely accessible
- Remove and clean safely accessible light fixtures where appropriate
- Detailed baseboards, trim, doors, and door frames
- Cabinet and drawer interiors if emptied or selected
- Detailed appliance-area cleaning
- Hard-surface steam-cleaning capability where appropriate
- High and low dusting
- Ceiling fans
- Blinds and shutters where appropriate
- Interior windows and tracks if selected
- Laundry room, utility room, and finished basement detail if selected
- Wall spot-cleaning where appropriate
Detail items like vents, ceiling fans, and light fixtures are cleaned where safely accessible and appropriate. We do not perform electrical, HVAC, restoration, or remediation work. When something requires removal or repair beyond cleaning, we let you know before the job and adjust scope together.

What affects pricing
Specialty Cleaning is custom quoted. These jobs can involve all-day labor, expanded detail work, specialty tools, and multiple cleaners. They are often priced well above a standard deep clean.
Many full-scope specialty/detail cleans reach $1,000+ depending on size, condition, access, and selected detail items. Most jobs are quoted after photos or a walkthrough.

FAQ
Specialty questions,
answered.
Specialty Cleaning is for jobs that need more time, more detail, and more hands-on work than a standard deep clean. It has two branches under one service. Branch 1 is heavy-duty property cleanup: smoke and nicotine residue, neglected apartments, post-tenant messes, squatter situations, rental turnover recovery, heavy buildup, and odor-source cleaning. Branch 2 is premium whole-home detail cleaning for regular homeowners who want vents, fixtures, trim, cabinets, and detail areas handled at a much deeper level than a standard or Ultimate Deep Clean. Both branches are custom quoted because labor, condition, access, and selected detail items vary heavily.
Heavy-duty cleanup is for properties in heavier-than-normal condition: rental turnovers, neglected units, post-tenant or squatter situations, smoke or nicotine residue, or heavy buildup. Premium detail clean is for well-kept homes where the owner wants an extremely detailed reset: accessible vents, light fixtures where safely accessible, cabinet/drawer interiors if emptied or selected, ceiling fans, trim, baseboards, and detail areas done at a much deeper level than a standard or Ultimate Deep Clean. If you're not sure, send photos and a quick description in the quote form. We'll tell you which branch fits, or whether the job is actually a deep clean instead.
Star Pro does not advertise or perform biohazard cleanup, blood or body-fluid cleanup, crime scene cleanup, sewage cleanup, severe mold remediation, meth-lab cleanup, asbestos, lead dust, hazardous chemical cleanup, regulated or medical waste handling, sharps and needles, or pest infestation cleanup. Some hazardous, regulated, biohazard, pest-related, mold, sewage, chemical, or specialty-disposal situations may require a qualified provider before our cleaning can begin.
Specialty cleanup starts higher than standard deep cleaning because the work is more detailed, more physical, and often requires additional labor, stronger products, special equipment, and more time on-site. Most jobs require photos or a walkthrough before we can quote a final price. Pricing depends on property condition, residue severity, smoke or nicotine level, trash and debris on site, odor source, labor intensity, timeline, and safety concerns.
Yes. Specialty cleanup can justify a wider service area than our standard residential cleaning, because higher-ticket scope can justify the drive time. We're based in New Berlin and routinely serve specialty jobs across Waukesha County, Milwaukee County, and select surrounding areas. Send photos or a brief description and we'll let you know whether the location and scope fit.
Specialty cleanup scope varies enormously from job to job. A small heavy-duty apartment reset and a multi-room smoke-residue cleanup are very different jobs. Photos let us scope labor, materials, special products, and timeline accurately so the quote you get is the price you pay. Wide shots of each room plus close-ups of any residue, buildup, or odor source are most helpful.
Yes, that's one of our most common specialty jobs. Post-tenant and rental turnover recovery covers heavy buildup in kitchens and bathrooms, cabinets and appliances inside and out, walls, baseboards, trim and doors, floors, and light debris removal where it's operationally accurate, so the unit is ready to show, list, or re-rent. Send a few photos and your timeline through the quote form. Turnover work is usually scheduled quickly because we know vacancy costs you money. Pricing is custom because condition varies; small heavy-duty apartment resets commonly start around $750, and larger or heavier turnovers run higher.
Yes. Smoke and nicotine residue cleaning targets the film and residue left on walls, ceilings, trim, doors, cabinets, and hard surfaces. It's a common request across New Berlin, Waukesha, Brookfield, and the surrounding Milwaukee suburbs, and it's often the step that prepares a property for repainting, turnover, listing, or reoccupancy. We're honest about the limits: we clean residue and odor sources, but we don't promise complete odor removal or full smoke remediation. Heavy cases can still need sealing and repainting by a painter or a restoration provider after our cleaning. Every smoke job is quoted from photos or a walkthrough because severity varies so much.
Yes. Landlords, property managers, and real estate investors are a core part of our specialty work. We handle post-tenant cleanup, rental turnover recovery, neglected units, and heavy buildup so a unit is ready between tenants. We can work from photos and coordinate access without you being on-site, and we'll give you a clear scope and price before we start. If you manage multiple properties, we can keep your turnovers on a consistent process.
Heavy-duty cleanup is priced higher than a standard deep clean because it's more physical, takes more time, and often needs stronger products and extra labor. As a rough guide: small heavy-duty apartment resets commonly start around $750, smoke, neglect, or full turnover recovery often runs in the $1,500–$3,500 range, and severe or large properties are custom quoted. Most jobs need photos or a walkthrough first so the quote reflects the real condition. Heavier-than-described properties can land above an initial estimate.
