Spring is on the horizon! And with it, spring cleaning. Before you start your spring cleaning venture, here are a couple of hints and tricks to help get your residence or commercial building clean of the winter grime.
Dehumidify basements or underground rooms. As forewarned in our previous blog post, moisture in homes can cause some serious damage. Since the spring and summer months are know for being damp, clean your dehumidifier and start running it.
Dust off your lights. Light bulbs and fixtures get rather dusty through the course of the year. Give them a good dusting over and put in CFL’s or LEDs if you haven’t already. Cleaning off your light fixtures can make a huge difference in the lighting surprisingly.
Wipe down your walls. Have any spots or discolorations on your painted walls? Take a wet cloth to them. If that doesn’t work, put a bit of dish soap in a bucket of water. Then wipe down your walls. Cleaning your walls can revive the color.
Clean your windows. Before you put screens back on your windows, it’s best to clean them inside and out. Cleaner windows help to let more light in.
Prep your A/C. If you have window A/C units, you should go over it with the brush attachment from your vacuum,, sucking out all the dirt that gets sucked in. Also, take out the filter and wash it, making sure it’s dried completely before putting it back in.
Use green cleaners or make your own. Whether you use green cleaners or just make your own, it helps to create a healthier environment. If you’re a business, it could also help you look better. More and more Americans are choosing greener companies over non-green competitors.
