18 Before-and-After Photos That Prove the Power of a Deep Clean

Personally, I can be a bit of a clean freak, not going to lie. Living in a well-kept home brings me more peace of mind than anything else. Keeping your home and office organized with a clean and tidy space will clear your mind.

However, unorganized and messy places are nothing but the opposite. This is why it brings us so much joy to see these images of places that finally got a good scrub.

This Disaster Home

Oh, my goodness. In all honesty, I’d love to know what occurred in this location to make it this disorganized. This must have been an absolute nightmare to live through. I bet this person is glad this is over now.

This Bedroom Makeover

They say you need a quaint little space to curl up, mess-free, but I fail to see how that was ever a thing here. This kind of stuff just lying around would make me insane. Do you hear what I’m saying? This is much better, isn’t it?

Before And After This Dining Room

This community is awesome. When I wanted to quit, I continued to keep you here. On to the next room!”

Aww, how sweet is that? Who needs more motivation than that?

This Playroom Clean-Up

Check this out. And through clean makes all the difference, right? This playroom was a complete disaster before but now it is a dream to behold! Any child who has the chance to play here is one lucky kid.

This Huge Difference

“D**n controlled my life and held me down for months. Finally, I would get off my streak. The next step is the bedroom. The prize is the entire apartment. Gotta keep myself going.”

Thanks to this fella for setting them straight.

This Storage Room

For starters, this individual has a pretty fortunate storage room. Am I right? I would kill for that, haha. However, the reason for keeping it this way is probably what puzzles me the most. It was cool that they finally got to do it right.

This Garage Before And After

I am always impressed when people have a garage that is organized. Obviously this individual allowed things to slip between the cracks, but they were eventually on it and cleaned it up. This area looks like a million bucks now.

This Kitchen Disaster

“I painstakingly cleaned my way out of my d**n nest so that I could start the new year on a better (& cleaner) foot.”

Yay! Really good to see someone crawl out of a ditch every once in a while. And you have to say Bravo — you are starting this new year off right.

This Fridge Organization

I must confess that our fridge has been looking rather cluttered lately. If only I could find the time to do so. This before and after gives me that extra kick to get to our mess, hehe, at least when I see it,? How about you?

This Craft Corner

“My desk was a catch-all. Well, I have a space to work and create now.

Whoa! Now, how about this adorable craft corner, huh?! This person didn’t get much creative work done back then, but a lot has changed. Am I right?

This Bedroom Fix-Up

The past few months have been like fighting d**n, and my room hasn’t been this clean in a long time. All day in 35-degree heat but so pleased to have ticked it off. Here is to a better tomorrow.

Aww, I love that.

This Clean-Up Excuse

We had company for the first time in ages (since pre-pandemic) so it was the perfect excuse to clean.

Take some advice if you are not finding any motivation to clean your house. Have a few guests around, and you have your cleaning spirit event in no time at all, hehe. I enjoyed working for this person.

This Bedroom Clean-Up

Well you guys, I helped my boyfriend tidy up his room!

How nice of a girlfriend though, right? She could well have had an agenda to get this place spotless. I mean, I wouldn’t want to spend the time here anyway. Does that make sense, lol?

This Impressive Bedroom

Just flipped the switch and cleaned my mom’s bedroom!

Well, ain’t that just as sweet, too, huh? I just wish someone would come and sort out my house for me, haha! Honestly, I am quite conflicted — I want more space. That’s all. Hopefully, anything after that will be fine by me.

This Living Room Makeover

I finally deep cleaned my living room in January after having it this dirty for over a year, and so far I am managing to stay on top of it.

Wow! Nice! That must have been quite an undertaking, but I am sure it was worth every minute spent. Now it’s a more welcoming room. Do you agree with that?

This Kids’ Room

“My kids’ room. We are thankful for their help and trust that we won’t let it get to this point again… at least not in the near future! So it has been a good time to sort out, clean, and clear out.

When it comes to cleaning up the space, I don’t know about you, but I feel a bit of catharsis. You feel a sense of satisfaction for doing something like that. Am I right?

This Kitchen Makeover

“Sometimes life happens. Our house is a home and as such will never be Instagram but this kitchen was downright embarrassing. N ew role, long hours, sick children. Three months in and what a f**king year it has been already. Just going to call it a night and post the other half tomorrow.

Ah, come on, don’t be so hard on yourself for that. Life happens to everyone.

This Office Space Clean-Up

OK, I admit it — my office space is a complete disaster. I use that as my excuse because it is what I am trying to get organized right now. Therefore, I can personally understand when I look at this before and after here. It looks so much better, doesn’t it?

Did you find before and after photos of spaces that received applicable TLC as satisfying as we did? They sure were to me. And I must admit that they provided me with the impetus to carry out a few projects at home as well.

How about you? Is there a big transformation you can do in ONE room of your house?
