A lot of people realise the pleasure of cleaning the house only after the completion of the task. That is because cleaning homes require plenty of hard work. Although cleaning every nook and corner of your home will never become effortless, there are ways in which you can make this activity feasible, as well as enjoyable.

Here are some tips and tricks for you.

Clean Ceilings and Walls

Remove dust using a vacuum. You can use a solvent-free degreaser to address the persistent surface dirt in your kitchen and other rooms. Before you use the degreaser, test it in a concealed area to find out if it can potentially damage the surface.

Reseal the Lines of Grout

Grout is the cement-based substance used in between the tiles of the floor, countertop and wall. It is totally permeable and is prone to stain quickly. Use a little foam brush to reseal with a good grout sealer.

Vacuum and Shampoo Carpets

A hot-water extraction gadget and rotary shampoo can be the best choice to deep-clean your synthetic rugs and carpets. If you also have rugs without backings, you might want to get it cleaned by a professional.

Dust Shelves and Books

Remove your books and other materials from the shelves and brush them with the help of a feather duster. You can try using it or a crevice tool with a vacuum in order to reach the areas that are, otherwise, unreachable. If you are an avid reader, you are likely to have leather-bound books. You can wipe them clean using a soft, clean piece of cloth.

Polish the Doors and Windows

Liquid polishes or pieces of cloth soaked in polish are a good match for the slightly discoloured surfaces. If they have worn out, you can use creams and pastes to take care of them. In case the tarnish does not get removed, get a more powerful item.

Ensure Fire Safety

The batteries of your smoke detectors need to be changed twice a year, and spring could be one of those times. Clean dust from the units, discuss escape plans with your family and teach them to properly use fire extinguishers. Safety is the biggest priority.

Dust the Rooms Thoroughly

Always clean rooms from the top to the bottom and vacuum the dust that accumulates on the floor. Before the wall and floor, clean the window casings and ceiling fans.

These are but a few of the numerous tips you can include in your spring cleaning checklist. You can personalise the list according to your requirements. Whether you want to start from the basement and move up to the attic or begin cleaning outdoors first, make a practical schedule and perform one task at a time. You should also understand that one day will not be enough. In order to save time, ensure that you request your family’s help.

Some areas in your office are less visible and less obvious than other places. They easily get overlooked during the cleaning procedure. These places and things bring about a distressing first impression to both visitors and customers. Read on to know what places need to be regularly cleaned instead of being ignored.

Baseboards

The grime and dust accumulated on baseboards often find its way inside HVAC systems and turn the air around you impure.

Behind copy machines and printers

Before stepping away from the copier, check out the tiny particles that have gathered under, behind and around the machine. Don’t forget to clean the area.

Ceiling tiles

Does your office have acoustic tiles on the ceiling? The uneven texture of most such tiles is known for collecting dirt, and the ones situated near vents are susceptible to dark marks.

Vents

The constant use of heating systems causes allergens, dust and other particles to assemble around heating vents. Vents in the ceiling like those in kitchens and washrooms should also be considered.

Light fixtures

Bugs often die in fluorescent light fixtures, barring the light’s intensity and complicating your cleaning task. Additionally, fixtures on desks and walls collect dust that diminishes their shine and brightness.

Ceiling fan blades

During winter, ceiling fans are used to bring down the rising warm air down to the place, where it is needed. However, particles and dust in the air stick to the blades like gum.

Frames of pictures

If there are picture frames hanging on the wall, run a piece of cloth on its surface. Look out for fingerprints or a grimy film and make sure that it does not need a dusting.

Walls

Your wallpapered or textured walls may become home to dust particles. Whether they are located in areas that see less traffic or are behind doors, the amount of grime that sticks to your finger might surprise you.

Door knobs and switch boards

Switches and door knobs cause the maximum number of contagious diseases. Ensure their regular cleaning as they can be the harbinger of illness, no matter what time of the year it is.

Steps

Carpeted stairs look elegant. But they also shelter salt, debris and other particles that can adhere to the bottom of your shoes and spread throughout the house. Hence, clean the corners of stairwells and stairways; be they carpeted or have a hard surface.

Upholstery

People usually clean the front of upholstered furniture. But have you ever compared the front with the back? If your answer is no, try it, and the immense dinginess that awaits you might throw you back with shock. Get steam cleaning done for a cleaner office room.

Kitchen

Wash and wipe the empty space under the microwave or the region behind the refrigerator. There might be cockroaches, lizards and what not, hiding in the darkness and oblivion.

Get in contact with a commercial cleaning service provider to keep your office as fresh as paint. They will not leave out any part.
