What is the difference between Regular Domestic Cleaning and Spring Cleaning?

A regular domestic clean  is a clean of the areas of the home that you have daily contact with. For example, in the kitchen it’s work surfaces, hob, washing dishes, and mopping the floors.

A spring clean is a much deeper clean.  It means cleaning all of the corners of the house that you don’t get to on a regularly, which means it takes much longer. For example, in the kitchen it would involve cleaning the oven, inside the fridge, inside all the cupboards, internal windows etc.
