Just before high intensity summer of Dubai arrives, spring might well be the right time for a detailed cleaning session for your home. You need to be prepared with the right tools and gadgets for the job well done. Results to admire are next in line. Follow below steps about how to clean and maintain your Home for best results.
Get set for cleaning success
Proper planning and preparation will give you the best results. By going through this task of pre-cleaning preparation, one might save time through the process itself and also less distractions at the time of action helps build the rhythm and keep you going in a steady flow. First check that all cleaning supplies are well stocked and next plan the order in which the job will be conducted. When getting supplies stocked up always remember to add in some gloves in your bucket. Washing-up style rubber gloves are great for many jobs, but a heavy-duty pair also come in handy.
Now, make a checklist for these items: Detergents, cleaning chemicals for different surfaces, cleaning cloths, brushes, rubber gloves, face masks and vacuum cleaner. Remember to empty the bag of vacuum cleaner and replace the filter if need be, before starting the job.
Mobilize your cleaning supplies
You will need to move all your supplies along as you move from one room to the other. For this, a cleaning caddy is ideal for keeping things organized and mobile. A large old bucket or a big plastic bag can also do the job. No matter how you do it, always ensure to keep all the cleaning items out of reach of children.
How to clean windows and surfaces
The right plan is to start from top to bottom. This means that you should begin cleaning the higher up surfaces like ceiling, ceiling fans, windows, doors before you move ahead towards carpets and floor.
Cleaning windows
Window vacuums are a great invention when it comes to cleaning windows. This is just the easiest and quickest way to clean up the windows. Since every house hold does not have a window vacuum cleaner, we have the old school way of cleaning the windows and its rails. Spray some small amounts of glass cleaner on the window and scrub using a soft cloth until dry. Use a cleaning brush to gather debris from the window sliding rails and clean it off using a regular vacuum cleaner.
Clearing the dust
Removing the dust is all part of the cleaning project, so you need to pay much attention to it. First you may need to use a vacuum cleaner with a brush head to remove the visible dust from surfaces like tops of wardrobes, around door frames, sofas and chairs. Dust contain allergens that can intensify some natural allergies, therefore a thorough cleaning approach is required. For a final cleanup use a soft cloth with some surface cleaner and gently scrub the surface that need a thorough cleaning. A home free of allergens is a healthy home.
Kitchen cleaning
This is the hard part. Cleaning kitchen is a daily operation but when it’s time to tackle a deep clean job then you need to find the right cleaners to give you a sparkling result without damaging materials.
Use an antibacterial floor cleaner to clean your floor tiles. Use a good quality and powerful grease cleaner to clear up all the accumulated grease in the drains and around the stove. Always remember to use proper gloves and shoes to protect your hands and gloves from these intense chemicals. Once you are done with the intense cleaning of your kitchen the end results will surprise you and make u fall in love with your kitchen again.
Descaling appliances & removing lime scale
So, now is the ideal time for some descaling. It’s time to treat coffee machines, electric kettles and washing machines with a descaling solution. Descaling makes appliances last longer. In order to get that old sparkle back in your bathroom, you can use a lime scale remover on taps, bath tubs, toilets, shower walls and for descaling blocked shower heads. Honestly in our opinion, if you can’t find a lime scale remover then simple household vinegar will do a great and cost efficient job.
Keep carpets clean and fresh
This is important, deep cleaning your carpets at least once a year is very important. The reason is that carpets just like AC Ducts accumulate dust and debris which gathers allergens, bacteria and many other germs that can be harmful for your health. Therefore its well worth the effort to deep clean your carpets. This will not only extend the life of your carpet but also maintain the health of your home.
Clean and polish laminate and wood floors
Now we arrive at the floorings. If you have laminate or wood flooring, cleaning and polishing is important to extend their life and keep them looking shiny. First you need to thoroughly clean and wipe your floor before you apply floor polish. For this use a microfiber mop and pH neutral cleaning suitable for laminate or wood floors.
After thorough cleaning is done, laminate or wood floor polish adds a layer of protection against wear and tear and revives dull surfaces. When shopping go for floor polishes with polyurethane for extended protection and wear resistance.
