Regular Residential Cleaning
General Cleaning Tasks
- Sweeping, Vacuuming, and Mopping Floors
- This is the foundation of any cleaning routine. Dust and dirt accumulate on floors, so regular cleaning keeps them looking their best.
- Dusting Surfaces
- Wipe down living room, bedroom, and hallway surfaces, including doors, window frames, and vents. Dust tends to settle everywhere, so don’t forget those often-neglected spots.
- Tidying Up
- Put away clutter, straighten pillows, and organize items. A tidy home feels more spacious and less chaotic.
Kitchen Cleaning
- Taking Out the Trash
- Empty kitchen trash bins and replace liners.
- Wiping Surfaces:
- Clean countertops, appliances (like stovetops and microwaves), and cabinet exteriors.
- Sink and Faucet Cleaning
- Remove any food residue and polish the sink.
- Sweeping or Mopping the Kitchen Floor
- Crumbs and spills tend to accumulate here.
Bathroom Cleaning
- Cleaning the Bath, Toilet, and Sink
- Scrub the bathtub or shower, disinfect the toilet, and wipe down the sink.
- Mirror and Fixture Cleaning
- Polish mirrors and faucets.
- Sweeping or Mopping the Bathroom Floor
- Keep it fresh and free of hair and dust.
Windows and Mirrors
- Wiping Windows and Mirrors
- Wet microfiber cloth with the vinegar solution. You can either dip it in a bucket or use a spray bottle (which helps contain the vinegar smell).
- Wipe the glass or mirror in a horizontal or vertical motion. Start at the top and work our way down.
- For stubborn spots, we add a drop of dish soap to your cloth or spray bottle. Soap and water can help loosen grime.
- Use the squeegee for an initial pass on dirty exterior glass. It reduces the need for excessive scrubbing.
- Follow up with a dry microfiber cloth to remove streaks and achieve that sparkling finish.
Cobweb Removal
Check Corners and Ceilings
here’s the twist: Not all cobwebs are created equal. Some are spun by harmless house spiders, while others are the handiwork of more notorious arachnids like the black widow or the brown recluse. So, let’s break it down:
- Cobweb Spiders
- Scrub the bathtub or shower, disinfect the toilet, and wipe down the sink.
- Harmless Cobwebs
- These are the ones that accumulate dust and look like they’ve been there since the Paleolithic era. They’re not actively maintained by spiders but are more like accidental art installations in the forgotten corners of your home.
