AD| It’s a dirty job – but someone has to do it! Your simple guide to spring cleaning
You put so much hard work, thought and effort into styling your house into a home, that it seems a shame for it to be overruled by clutter, dust, grime and dirt. Unfortunately, modern life often means we neglect what appears to be the tiniest of household chores until they transform into much larger issues. However, with Spring on the way now is a good opportunity to break out the cleaning products and get stuck into some deep cleaning. If, however, you just simply don’t have the time, it’s worth looking online for cleaning services London to give you a hand.
Not everyone enjoys cleaning, but once you get it done the sense of achievement is wonderful and you’ll only wonder why you didn’t do it sooner. Read on for your simple guide to spring cleaning.
Your A/C unit
Of course, we’re still in love with our thick jumpers and heavy winter boots for those frosty mornings and biting winds. But when it comes to spring cleaning, your air conditioning unit should be a priority. Regular maintenance will keep it in good working order and ensuring that all the filters and components are clean and clear of debris will prevent issues further down the line such as your air conditioner not cooling or it not working at all. If you’re unsure of how to tackle your air-con unit, then don’t be afraid to call in the experts. Get this job out the way in good time, that way, the happier you’ll be in the hotter months of the year!
Your windows
Spring means lighter days and even a few welcome hours of glorious sunshine. So, make sure you’re getting as much vitamin D as possible and freshen up your windows. Wash the inside of your windows and your sills, take down curtains and have them cleaned and don’t forget to dust your blinds. If appropriate, hire a window cleaner to take care of the outside of your property.
The microwave
You may feel like you’ve pulled the short straw on this one, but again once this little job is taken care of, you’ll feel much better – and won’t be afraid to open the microwave door! You can find plenty of homemade, chemical-free microwave cleaning solutions online, or if you prefer a bit of traditional cleaning fluid and some elbow grease should do the trick.
Those junk drawers
We all have a junk drawer. Whether it’s in the kitchen, in the hallway, the office or a draw in the living room. These kinds of drawers hold everything from instruction manuals for electricals you no longer have and phone chargers from devices you don’t even remember having. Go through every item and either keep it and restore it with a handy storage solution, bin it or donate it.
The kitchen cabinets
Dust, grease and grime – it all accumulates in the busiest room of the house and all over your kitchen cabinets. Empty your cupboards and give everything a good wipe down – don’t forget the top of the cabinets as this is where most of the grime will settle. Take the opportunity to reorganize your kitchen supplies and donate anything you no longer want or use.
