6 Expert Cleaning Tips from the Professionals

ShareTweet

People who hire a professional cleaning company for the first time stand in awe when they look at their home after its own beauty treatment is complete. Even the most meticulous homeowners are sometimes taken aback by how clean their home is. What takes the average resident an entire Sunday, a professional cleaning service does in mere hours. But how is this possible? What sort of cleaning tips can they provide for us common folk?

There are no magical secrets, really. It’s just the vast experience the employees at these companies have. Having cleaned numerous homes, professional maids know what to avoid and where to look in order to eliminate even the most persistent or concealed dirt from your home. To prove it, here are some easy-to-follow expert cleaning tips they had to learn the hard way.

Green Cleaning Products

A lot of households still use bleach and other harsh cleaners to get those persistent stains off. However, there are environmentally-friendly alternatives for any of those cleaning products on the market. These cleaning products are also less likely to harm your family, your children, and your pets.

Decluttering Is the Key

Your home can be the cleanest home in the world with no dust anywhere, but if it’s too cluttered it will always appear messy. If that describes your home, you need to do something about it. Think about expanding your storage space and getting all family members to clean after themselves. Children should pick up their toys after they’re done playing. If everyone does their part, your home will be much more pleasant to the eye.

The Devil Is in the Details

Cleaning the bathroom is undoubtedly the most demanding chore in your home. But even if you get it spotless, dirty and used towels, wet bathmats and scruffy shower curtains will ruin the standard you’ve set. To keep your bathroom truly spotless change towels regularly, wash and dry bathmats, and replace the shower curtains when necessary.

Know Where to Look

Now here’s the tricky part. Most homeowners only look at eye-level when they clean their home. They will get the dust and dirt off the TV, table, and countertops, but miss out on more covert spots. When cleaning, look around for dirt on different levels. Baseboards are usually teeming with dust, so are the highest shelves in your home.

Also, don’t forget to clean the secluded spots in your home. For example, when cleaning the sink most homeowners only focus on the sink, but miss the space behind the sink or around the faucets. As water splashes around, these areas can get very dirty if left unchecked.

Dress for the Job

You won’t believe how much some items like an apron, knee pads, and cleaning gloves can help make this task easier. Not just that, they will help shield your clothes from damaging cleaning products. More importantly, they will protect your skin. If you wear the proper equipment you can get to the gross areas and make sure you get all the dirt out.

Take Your Time

Another common mistake owners make is rushing to finish the job. However, some cleaning products take time to do their job. Not waiting as long as the manual suggests might make the product ineffective and cleaning more difficult. Plan your time when doing this so cleaning products have enough time to get through to the dirt. It will make your task much easier, faster and ultimately more successful.
