grammaticality - A question about using the "v-ing" verbs

To native speakers, normally do you use adverbs to modify these v-ing worlds especially when they are the objects of the verbs?

Like:

I regret swimming hurriedly

Not

I regret hurried swimming.

Right? And what about these two sentences:

I regret stamp-collecting

or

I regret collecting stamps

Besides, when using these words, it still retains the verbal characteristics right? Like:

The house needs a careful cleaning.

has the same meaning with

The house needs carefully cleaning.

or

The house needs to be cleaned carefully.

(SOMETHING like passive voice)
