TIME AND ENERGY SAVING CLEANING TIPS
 

Vacuuming - Start Vacuuming in your bedrooms first. Vacuum your way out of the room. Always adjust your vacuum carpet attachment to proper height. Use long, slow strokes and keep your back straight. It is faster to vacuum all hard surfaces instead of using the broom. Avoid repeating unnecessary steps. Use soft vacuuming brush to clean shelves, electronics, blinds etc. and other object that are difficult to dust.

Washrooms - Remove all object from surfaces to be cleaned. Wet and spray all tubs, sinks and toilets first. Clean tubs, tiled areas, sinks and toilets thoroughly. Invest in a few microfiber cloths. These cloths can clean very well only with water. A static electricity is used to collect dirt, dust and grease. They are practical and easy to reuse - just put them in your washer and use them again.

Kitchens - Give your cleaning product time to work. Spray all your kitchen working surfaces and appliances first, let it work for about 5 - 10 min. and than wipe it off. Most people make a mistake by trying to scrub heavy stains and cause damage to their counters and appliances. Microwave can be cleaned by filing up your regular cup with water and heat it up for about 3 minutes on the high setting. The steam from boiling water will loosen all dried food and stains which makes it easy to wipe off. Use water mixed with vinegar to get rid of any odors.

Natural Stone Flooring - We recommend to use warm water only, because majority of commercial cleaners or vinegar will deteriorate the sealant. Use quality door mats outside and inside of every entrance to your house. This will help to stop a lot of dirt, sand and stones making its way on to your floors and carpets and causing damage.
