Take Time To Understand Your Home

Nobody knows your house better than you. The first step to a clean and healthy home is to understand the cleaning requirements of your house. Make a list of different dry and wet areas in your home including the windows and carpets. Categorize these areas and mark them from easy to difficult areas to clean. Also, note how long these areas stay clean after you clean them.

Identify Your Cleaning Needs

This step includes mapping out areas that need more frequent cleaning and attention. Identify cleaning activities that need to be done daily like taking the trash out, making your bed, cleaning your kitchen, etc. Find activities that can be done once a week and month. You have to account for the garden and pool if you have one. Decide how much time can you spend cleaning every day and how often can you clean your house. You can also decide if you need the help of a professional house cleaner.

Get The Right Tools in Your Caddy

You need to find the right tools, detergents, and equipment necessary for cleaning your house. You need to learn about the various cleaning techniques and hacks with which you can use these efficiently. Find out if you are using these tools right. Learn about the best ways in which you can clean different areas of your home. From microfibre cloth to vacuum cleaners or Roombas, get the tool kit that is right for your home. You can also get different types of organizers for your home to clear the clutter.

Creating A Cleaning Calender

With the right skill set, tool kit, and idea about your own home, you can create a cleaning calendar for your home. You can mark and allot time for each activity and prioritize based on the importance. For example, you can set two or three days to do laundry a week so that it doesn’t build up or clean the ceiling fans and light fixtures once a week, etc. If you are too busy or too tired, you can allot 10 minutes in between your chores to clean. This can also instill a habit of cleanliness in you.

Give Extra Care With Some Assistance

You can also get a professional cleaning service to clean your home from time to time according to your budget. You can deep clean your home once or twice a year so that every nook and corner is cleaned properly. You can also get your couches, carpets, curtains, and mattresses professionally cleaned at regular intervals.

Conclusion

Creating a cleaning calendar and following it can help you keep your activities up to date and ensures that your house always remains clean. You can use various apps that help you create, assign and track cleaning chores regularly like Tody, Homy, and Sweepy. Get the help of a professional house cleaning service in your area to make things easier and give your home a perfect look.
