Your Quick Guide to Housekeeping Cleaning

Every home deserves quality house cleaning. But before you start cleaning your

house, identify certain tasks in each room. Make a checklist of your cleaning

priorities and have a home organizing plan.

Follow a routine when you clean. Start at the back and work your way to the

front of the house. Go from top to bottom in each room. Below are some cleaning

tips to help you get the most of your time and effort.

Kitchen Cleaning
•Start with the top of the refrigerator and kitchen cabinets.
•Use stainless steel cleaner for your sink. Rub it with a dry cloth to make it

shine.
•Wipe kitchen counters.
•Do not forget to clean behind and underneath the refrigerator and oven.
•Use a good oven cleaner to remove grease and overflows from your oven.
•At least once a month, remove everything from your refrigerator and freezer and

clean them from inside.  
•Clean your microwave oven with water, mild detergent and a sponge. Wipe clean

and dry.  

Bathroom Cleaning
•First, start with the bathtub and shower and make sure they are mold free.
•Second, clean the toilet, then the sink and areas around them.
•Finish with mopping the bathroom floor.
•Choose ammonia based multi-purpose cleaner to efficiently remove dirt and

grease, while minimizing smearing or streaking. This kind of product works on

multiple surfaces such as tile walls, ceramic fixtures, mirrors, and shower

head, leaving them clean and shiny.

Dusting and Vacuuming
Dust is composed human skin cells, dirt and fabric fibers. Dust collects on

every surface, causing scratching and damage to household surfaces.
•You need to dust weekly. First choose the right dusting tool for your job.

Vacuum cleaner is simple to use and remove dust without spreading it around into

the air.
•To clean the dust in small corners, and irregular spaces, get a good feather

duster to avoid scratching the surfaces, especially delicate figurines. It is a

great option for quick dusting places like shelves without moving everything.

Window Cleaning
You need to clean windows once a month. There are many different glass cleaning

products on the market to choose from. Use an effective professional-type

cleaner to get rid of dirt, grease and grime. It is ideal to use on any glass

surfaces and leaves a clean, fresh fragrance.
•Remove any excess dirt before washing your windows.
•Clean in a pattern. If you are cleaning the outside and inside, work side to

side on the inside and top to bottom on the outside. This will help you see if

any side has any streaks left.

Mopping Floors
Use two mopping buckets. One filled with cleaning solution and the other with

clear water to rinse your mop. This will help you keep the cleaning solution

clear for longer time, because all the dirt will be washed in the water bucket.

After you finish cleaning:
•Remove the sheets from the beds and use fresh ones.
•Freshen up your home by using natural air refreshers or scented candles.
•Relax!
