Cleaning Services Oakton has the best summer cleaning tips. Read on to find out how to keep your home spic and span this June, July and August…
Patio Furniture
To help keep your patio furniture shining, wash the tables and chairs with a solution made from half water and distilled white vinegar and a few drops of dish detergent. This will stop dirt building up and keep insects away.
Barbecue
It’s best to wash the grill as soon as you’ve used it. Remove all the racks carefully and soak them in hot, soapy water. Again, white vinegar can be used to remove the grease and food debris. If the mess is major, you might need to use oven cleaner. Do this wearing rubber gloves and in a well-ventilated area.
Water rings
If you’ve been having guests over and there are water rings on your wooden coffee table, we have a weird little trick that can help. Apply a generous amount of full-fat mayo to the water ring and let it sit for an hour before wiping off with a cloth.
Shoes off
It’s worth asking people to take their shoes off when they enter your home. Sand, dirt and more comes in with our shoes. If the family and guests aren’t wearing them, it extends the life of laminate, wooden flooring and carpets.
Alternatively, why not invest in the Cleaning Services Oakton dry carpet cleaning? Pet hair, odors, dirt and staining vanish and there’s minimal disruption to your life too.
Swimsuits
You want your bathing suit to last, don’t you? Sunshine, sun screen and chlorine all act on the material making it old and faded looking. Rinse your bathing suit with water right after wearing every time.
Involve everyone
Finally, the thing about cleaning is that it’s a family thang—it’s not the responsibility of one person (usually the mom!). Dads can clean too as can the kids. Even pre-schoolers should know to put away their toys at the end of the day. And if your children are on their summer holidays, part of their day should be spent tidying up.
