When it comes to useful House Cleaning Tips I strongly advocate the notion that a little at a time – and you will always be on top of your housekeeping cleaning. However, there are those occasions when a deep clean is required. If you move into a new house, where the previous owners have not been as diligent as you, or helping you off spring move into rented accommodation.  Whatever the reason, faced with a dirty house that has built up its mess over time can be a daunting prospect. So where should you start? Here is my advice on how to manage that Deep Clean.

1 – I like to start at the top of the house and work my way down. Being systematic is the key to success and working room to room.

2 – The top down approach should apply to each room. Start at the ceilings and make your way down.

3 – I like to tackle the cleaning of the bedrooms, studies and reception rooms first

4 – Don’t forget the ceilings, curtains and floors. Make sure you move all the furniture so you can get behind and underneath where the dirt has built up.

5 – Where water is involved in the cleaning process, start with this first, washing any sides, paintwork, windoes, laundering curtains, and shampooing carpets

6 – Then tackle the dry stuff. Dusting, polishing and waxing where appropriate

7 – Finally vacuum. This should pick up all the dirt and dust you have disturbed doing all the other cleaning above.

8 – I like to leave the bathrooms, kitchens and any utility rooms to the end. Make sure that any buckets and clothes are cleaned and replenished for these rooms.

9- Finally tackle the loft, porch and hallway etc.

Make yourself a nice up of tea, and enjoy the clean environment you have created.
