Having a spotless home is one of the best feelings in the world. It’s even better when you didn’t have to do the cleaning. Hiring a professional maid service can leave your home looking better than ever, but after a few days, things start to pile up and collect dust. The trouble is keeping your Sarasota home clean between cleaning service visits.
4 Tips to Keeping Your Sarasota Home Clean Between Visits
To keep that “newly cleaned by professionals” look, follow these 4 simple tips in between every cleaning service visit:
- Pay attention to rooms with high traffic. High traffic rooms can include the living room, kitchen, guest bathroom and foyer. If guests arrive unexpectedly, these are the rooms they will most likely see. Don’t worry so much about rooms that people outside your family won’t see.
- Break up the cleaning. Don’t try to clean everything all in one day. Take some time and spend one day in each room. That way, cleaning won’t feel too overbearing and you won’t give up on it.
- Put things in their place. The easiest thing to do when you get home is to drop everything in one area. Don’t do that. A pile will slowly start to accumulate and cleaning it later will be more of a hassle than originally putting things in their proper places right away.
- Keep your floors clean. The simplest way to do this is to have a door mat at every entrance to your house. Ask your family and guests to wipe their feet before they come in. Going a step beyond that, you can ask your family and guests to take their shoes off when coming in the house to ensure dirt and debris won’t be tracked into the house.
Divide the Cleaning
When you hire a professional maid service, your home is spotless when they leave and you want that fresh feeling to continue until their next visit. Once things start feeling not so clean anymore, don’t do all the cleaning in one day and only by one person. Divide it up between the family and divide it up between days. If your house is in desperate need of another professional-grade cleaning, ask about more regular visits. HouseMaids offers weekly cleanings, bi-weekly cleanings, and emergency cleanings for those days when the house just really needs it.
