The busy holiday season is a lot of fun, but it can also leave your house quite a mess! From more time in the kitchen to visiting relatives, it can be difficult to keep everything in order. Now is a great time to start the year off fresh with a deep cleaning service.
While thorough cleaning companies like HouseMaids leave your whole home sparkling with deep cleaning services at every visit, there are some rooms that need some extra attention. Read on to learn about the areas of your home that would benefit the most from a seasonal cleaning after the holidays.
Living Room
Giving and receiving gifts is one of the best parts of the holidays, but it may also leave you with a lot of extra clutter in your living room. A good way to start is by clearing out extra scraps like wrapping paper, ribbons, and bows.
Stowing away your decorations for next year will also help you to feel more organized and get your home ready for a thorough deep cleaning.
Kitchen
For obvious reasons, kitchens get a lot more use during the holiday season. All of this extra time spent in the kitchen can also leave you with a pretty big mess!
During a post-holiday deep clean, the focus should be on the areas where a lot of food was kept or prepared. A great place to start is your fridge. Any old or expired food should be thrown out while the inside is thoroughly cleaned and sanitized.
Next up is the stove and vent hood. After preparing all of your holiday meals, your stove will likely need a very thorough scrubbing and degreasing. It’s also important to keep your vent hood clean and check your filter to make sure it’s not covered in greasy residue.
Bathrooms
Many people have extra family members staying with them during the holiday season, which means bathrooms also get a lot more use. Deep cleaning your bathrooms after all of the relatives have left can help you start off fresh and keep your family safe from harmful germs.
Sinks, countertops, and tile floors are all places where bacteria and soap residue like to build up. These areas, along with your tubs/showers and toilets will need to be cleaned and sanitized.
Upholstery and Carpets
During the cooler winter months, we are usually running the heater all day and keep windows shut, leading to very dry air and a build-up of dust. Extra dust and allergens can easily get stuck in upholstered furniture and carpeting.
Regular vacuuming during the winter season can help you keep up with the dust, but a very thorough deep clean after the holidays is always a good idea. You’ll be amazed at how much a carpet cleaning can freshen up your home.
