How to deep clean your house in a few easy steps

Balancing work and household chores get tricky sometimes and we are often left confused on how to find time to clean our den. While keeping our homes clean is essential and a must-do activity, hygienic and healthy surroundings demand more than just light scrubbing. Here are some tips to help you get started on deep cleaning your space for a sparkling home:

First declutter!

Clear-up your space, remove objects from the top of counters and make spaces visible in the room. Cleared spaces make cleaning easier and help you segregate useful things and things that are just lying around and should be discarded. Keep what is needed and get rid of others. The more you declutter your space, the lesser time it will take to clean the space.

Start with hard-to-reach surfaces first

Tackle hard-to-reach surfaces first like ceiling and crown moldings, ceiling fans and light fixtures, cabinet tops, window blinds and other tall furniture. Use a microfiber mop or a long handled duster to capture all the dust and spider webs. Once you have cleaned the tops of cabinets and other hard to reach places, then begin cleaning the lower surfaces so that all the dust and particles of grease that may have fallen off from the top also get wiped off. Dip a soft cloth in a solution of warm water and dishwashing liquid to clean off the dust and debris effectively. EMJ Cleaning provides the best in class Atlanta house cleaning services and gets down to the nitty gritty areas of your home including hard to reach surfaces.

Wash the window glasses and clean your windows

Windows are constantly exposed to outside dirt and hence cleaning them may appear to be a difficult task. For blinds or shades, wipe the slats with a soft and wet cloth or use a vacuum cleaner with a soft dusting-brush tool attached to it. Drapery and curtains also require regular quality cleaning. So wash them in a laundry and use in-between dryer runs to ensure that all of the accumulated dust is got rid of. For cleaning window panes, use glass cleaner to get squeaky clean windows.

Now comes the floors

For all dusting purposes, a vacuum cleaner, dust mop, and duster are your best friends. Make time to organize shelves, remove objects and clean thoroughly. You can use disinfectant liquids, wood cleaner wax and more as per the surface that needs cleaning. Clean floors only after dusting the topmost areas as in the process floors will accumulate dust and hence it is best to clean them at last.

Deep cleaning of the house is required at regular intervals to ensure healthy spaces but is an extremely time taking process and can take a toll over your physical energy levels.
