Spring Cleaning Dilemmas
Spring Cleaning Dilemmas
With the recent bad weather most of us have been spending more time than usual indoors. Here are a few home cleaning tasks you might have missed to keep you happy, productive and sane while spending time at home with the family. They might even allow you to spend some time at home away from the family.
Salt stains are some of the most common in winter and can make your footwear look downright awful. Professional cleaning companies recommend that you hoover any loose salt particles and apply a mixture of shoe shampoo and lukewarm water. Rub this on the stain with a sponge and scrub gently until it lifts out.
If salt stains have hit your carpets, use a similar process. Hoover up salt crystals and apply lukewarm water with a sponge. Dab any excess moisture with a dry towel, and salt stains and water alike should be gone in no time at all.
If it feels like your home has gotten smaller, it probably has. For a thorough end of tenancy cleaning London clients can call on any number of professionals to get rid of the clutter and extra stuff that has accumulated over the holidays. Set up a workstation and toss out the terracotta patio clock your Aussie relatives sent you for Christmas 96.
If you are one of the lucky few people who still have a traditional fireplace and chimney or wood stove, think about having it professionally cleaned. All your home cleaning efforts will be useless if the house burns down, and these are the highest risk areas in terms of winter cleaning. Safety logs are good, but no substitute for an old fashioned Victorian chimney sweep-up.
Dust particles. With windows closed, air has a problem circulating through your home (like in summer) and dust particles settle in your mattresses and settees. Hoover these thoroughly, flip cushions and mattresses and clean your bed frames. Washing sheets and bedclothes in hot water will help get rid of dust and other allergenic particles.
The wardrobe. Winter is the time when things get stuffed into cracks and crevasses all over your house willy-nilly. Pick out what you want to throw away, give to charity or put into storage boxes. You may even find spare change, gum, cigarettes or an elderly relative left over from the Christmas holidays. So spend it, chew it, smoke it or send it packing depending on what it is you've discovered, and happy professional cleaning to you and yours during this dreary winter season!
