What does your lease say. You did have this all spelled out in the lease, right?
The lease says the deposit will be used for any repairs, painting, or cleaning necessitated by the tenant. Also says that painting is not allowed without written approval. I do like the idea of specifying a fee for carpet cleaning - I'll likely put that in going forward.

I would either hire someone to do it, or at least contact someone and find out how much they would charge to do it, and then charge that.

You need to save and provide receipts of services. Definitely hire out so there's no discussion on what it should cost to repaint a room or clean a carpet.
