Enhancing Spring Cleaning with a Restoration Company

12 Spring Cleaning Tips for Your Next Annual Cleaning

1. Clean light fixtures using a stepladder, sponge, all-purpose cleaner, and a cloth. If you don’t own a stepladder, use an extended-reach tool. Polish light bulbs with a microfiber cloth dampened with water.
2. Restore wood furniture with a microfiber cloth and a mixture of ½ teaspoon of olive oil and ½ cup of vinegar or lemon juice in a spray bottle.
3. Clean synthetic carpeting with a shampooer or extractor. For delicate carpeting, consider taking it to a professional cleaner. 
4. Smooth leather can be restored with an upholstery cleaner and conditioner.
5. Remove dust from ceiling fans with an electrostatic duster.
6. Polish stainless steel with a light mist of wax-based aerosol spray and a clean, lint-free cloth to give it a shiny look. Don’t use abrasive cleaners that might scratch or ruin the surface of stainless steel.
7. Wash windows and window screens on a cloudy day. Washing windows on a sunny day can dry the cleaning solution too quickly, leaving streaks on the glass. Use rubber-edged squeegees and a screw-on extension to reach high spots.
8. Refresh curtains by vacuuming, steam-cleaning, or dry-cleaning them. You can also clean sheer curtains in the dryer on a low setting with a fabric-softener sheet.
9. Clean under appliances and furniture. Move heavy furniture (such as sofas and beds) and kitchen appliances just enough to vacuum the areas underneath. You can also use the vacuum’s upholstery attachment to clean hard-to-reach areas. 
10. Wash walls, baseboards, and woodwork with a sponge and a mixture of warm water and dishwashing liquid. Dry the surfaces after cleaning using a piece of cloth.
11. Brush the dust from your refrigerator’s condenser coil(found behind the toe grille in front or in the back of your unit) to prevent it from overheating. Use a long-handled bottle brush and a vacuum cleaner with an attachment hose.
12. Check your crawl space for any signs of water damage, mold, pest infestation, damage to windows and vents, worn-out insulation, and humidity levels. 

Tools For a Clean House

Recommended Spring Cleaning Items

A steam cleaner can be useful when you need to thoroughly clean your floors. If you don’t have a steam cleaner, one of the best natural solutions for cleaning is white distilled vinegar, baking soda, and water. These ingredients are affordable, non-toxic, and can be found in most households.

One of the best tools you could have for deep cleaning your home is a high-quality HEPA vacuum. They catch tiny airborne particles that are invisible to the naked eye but can aggravate allergy symptoms. HEPA vacuums trap things like pet dander, allergens, and other particles in your home. 

Another item you may consider is an air purifier. Air purifiers help by circulating and filtering the air in your home. They can remove up to 99 percent of airborne particles, including dust mites, mold spores, and pollen. 

A final recommended cleaning tool to have is a dehumidifier. A dehumidifier can help reduce the amount of moisture in the air, which can minimize the growth of mold.

Say Yes to a Restoration Company Cleaning Services

At this point, you may have a spring cleaning checklist of things you want to accomplish, both inside and outside your home. But have you thought about a restoration company and how they might help? 

While you may not think of them as a traditional cleaning service, restoration companies can actually be a great resource for ramping up your spring cleaning efforts. Why settle for a traditional cleaning crew when you could hire a restoration company to do a much deeper clean?

Here’s what you need to know about the benefits of contacting a restoration company to rev up your spring cleaning and why it’s worth it.

1. Experience and expertise: A restoration company has the experience and expertise to get the job done right. They know how to properly clean different types of surfaces, so you can rest assured that your home will be sparkling clean when they’re finished. And they’ll make sure that your home is thoroughly clean from top to bottom.
2. Equipment: A restoration company has the necessary tools to tackle even the toughest cleaning jobs. 
3. Speed: A restoration company can often get the job done faster than you could on your own. This is because they have the manpower and resources to get the job done quickly.
4. Safety: A restoration company can help you avoid potential hazards associated with certain cleaning tasks. They can provide special equipment to safely clean high windows. They can also provide tips on how to properly use cleaning products to avoid injury.
5. Access: A restoration company may be able to access areas that you can’t. This means that they can clean areas that you may not be able to reach, such as high windows or inaccessible nooks and crannies.
6. Rest: A restoration company can provide you with peace of mind knowing that your home is being cleaned by professionals. They may just be the key to making it a successful and enjoyable experience.
