Timesaving cleaning tip from your professional house cleaning company

Most of us when knowing you have to clean the house don't actually have a plan on where to start.  Firstly its a good idea if your on your phone a lot to turn it off!  Just a simple suggestion as many people get sidetracked which then causes your jobs to take a lot longer than they should otherwise.
I always start with the simple jobs first quickly and easily so that then you feel more motivated to tackle those bigger cleaning tasks such as the kitchen and bathrooms.
I normally suggest starting on either your living room, dining room or even your home office as being the best rooms to start your cleaning but this depends on the household you live in.  Once these tasks are out the way you will then feel like you have gotten somewhere and have some sense of achievement which then motivates you to start those other jobs.

Another great tip for using your dishwasher to clean other items

Is your toothbrush holder looking grimy?

How about putting it into your dishwasher!
It will clean your grimy toothbrush holder effortlessly along with other items such as your soap dishes, dish drains, plus much more including range hood filters.  If your item is hard plastic, glass, ceramic or metal and it will fit, then just bang them all in the dishwasher!!

How to clean that dirty microwave!

This is another cleaning task that many people put off!  The longer you leave it the harder it becomes and the more germs gather inside which can cause serious health problems but hey Im not going to bang on about illness's and stuff :] I'll leave that for you to think about!
Take a microwavable safe bowl and fill it with water.  Just add a dash of vinegar and place the bowl inside the microwave and shut the door.  Turn on the microwave for 5 minutes.  During this time the water will turn to steam and the steam will soften up all the grime and gunk.  The vinegar will help absorb any smells.  Wipe down with a micro fibre cloth and leave to dry. Simple.

"If you look after your cleaner your cleaner will look after you"

Another job you may hate doing!

One of the nations least favourite chores as well as cleaning your oven is actually cleaning out your fridge!
Well not to worry, don't despair.
When you are finally feeling up to the task simply take out all the food in your refrigerator and place neatly on the side of one of your worktops. Now take out all the drawers and any shelves that can fit into your sink. Fill up your sink with steaming hot water, vinegar, baking soda and also a bit of dish soap. Using a dish brush scrub away all the grime from the drawers and also the shelves. You can sprinkle baking soda on the larger shelves.  Then add a splash of vinegar and also a real lemon juice before scrubbing away all the grime with your dish brush. You may have to put a bit of elbow grease into it but the end product you will have a sparkly clean refrigerator smelling really nice. Do not forget to do the sides of your fridge.
A paper towel or a micro fibre cloth is always good to wipe away all the wet mess and will leave a streak free shine!
Rinse your smaller shelves and draws you have already done in the sink and leave to dry.  Once dry place them back where they belong along with all your food nice and neatly.There you go…job well done.

8 house cleaning tips you won't know how you lived without from your very own Chester cleaning company.

8 simple and genius house cleaning tips from the leading premiere house cleaners in Chester

The following tips are using stuff around the house that you never knew you could use for simple and effective cleaning tips.

Using vinegar and baking soda did you know you can end up with a super clean dishwasher?

When running your next load in the dishwasher, place a dishwasher safe cup, filled with white vinegar on the top rack and add baking soda to the bottom rack. Make sure you still use your detergent like normal. The combination of all 3 will not only clean your dishes but your dishwasher itself will be sparkly clean.

Cleaning your wooden cutting boards using lemon and salt:

Simply sprinkle wooden cutting boards down coarse salt and rub down with a cut lemon.  Rinse with soap and dry with a tea towel.

Oven cleaning tip:  Make sure your oven is absolutely cold for this one!

Place half a cup of ammonia into a bowl and close the oven door overnight.  The fumes from the ammonia will loosen all the dirt and will then be simple to wipe down the next day.

Did you know tin foil can be used for cleaning?

Just crumple up a piece of tin foil to remove baked on food from your glass cookware.  Its actually easier on your hands than steel wool!

Bread slice - Use bread to pick up broken glass.

Seriously its easier than using a cloth and you can just throw it away as soon as you are done.  The glass sticks to the bread which allows you to pick it up easily and helps you to gather the small bits that a brush might well miss!

Chalk for grease stain removal!

Yes another item you may have in a draw or your kids bedroom a piece of chalk can be used for grease stain removal.  Before you put your item of clothing in the wash simply rub the grease stains with your piece of chalk.  The dust will absorb the grease and will all be rinsed away in the wash!

Glitter all over the place?

Another great piece of kids kit is Play Do.  Alls you have to do is press the play-do onto the loose glitter! Simple as that!

Do your make up brushes need cleaning?

Using baby shampoo simply wash and rinse your make up brushes and blot them to see if any more make up is remaining.  Once clean make sure you hang them upside down to dry so that no water collects inside the handles.

1 change to your lifestyle could massively free up time in your home!

The question is this.

If you could change one thing to your lifestyle what would it be?

A massive amount of people I interview in their homes always tell me that getting a cleaner in to clean their home is almost an absolute necessity due to their lifestyle.  Whether that be due to running their own business from home, running a family, work commitments, lots of travelling due to working, or whatever the reason.

You know what I am talking about!

People these days are working longer hours, have bigger rent cheques to pay, mortgages, bigger cars or 2 cars, bigger bills, etc and have to keep these payments up which means bigger work commitments.

The last thing you want to do is come home and clean the house!

Or if you are running your business from home the last thing you want to be doing is cleaning the house!  I have written a 2 minute article on 4 questions to ask yourself if you need a cleaner Feel free to have a good little read.

Its so important to have free time when you have a busy lifestyle.

The last thing you want to do after a busy day is clean the house!

Why not free up some time and go and get your hair done or go the gym or go for some lunch or an evening meal.  Even going shopping can be quite therapeutic for a lot of people!

Leave those cleaning jobs alone and call in the number 1 cleaning company across Chester for all those jobs!  Live a better and more stress free lifestyle without worrying that your home has not been cleaned!

CLEAN QUEEN - END OF TENANCY CLEANING SPECIALISTS IN CHESTER

If you are moving home soon there is plenty to think about before you hand your keys back over to your landlord/letting agents.
Firstly you must check to see if you are in need of an end of tenancy clean. This will be in your tenancy agreement or at least it should be! If it isn't then give your landlord/letting agents a quick call to see if you need one.

There are a couple of questions to ask too.

Number 1 - Ask if you need an oven clean.

This is very important as a full oven clean can vary in costs by different cleaning companies and also especially with an oven cleaning specialist.  Most landlords except a standard oven clean by a reputable cleaning company as opposed to having it specially cleaned every 12 months or so by new tenants, unless of course its a large shared house or student accommodation as quite a lot of these ovens can become very very dirty and a standard oven clean just won't do the job! A reputable cleaning company know exactly what to do in regards to oven cleaning and would have cleaned hundreds so know exactly what is expected from the landlords/letting agents.

The second question you must ask is if you require carpet cleaning. A lot of landlords/letting agents do expect the carpets to be cleaned before you leave the property so its a good idea if you are using a reputable cleaning company to do your end of tenancy clean in Chester  to ask if they specialise in carpet cleaning, as it can be a bit of a pain to get a cleaning company in and a carpet cleaning company in on the same day and at the same time. A good cleaning company will normally have their own carpet cleaning specialist to work around the cleaners just as the clean commences. This way the clean is finished on the same day.

It can be an arduous task if you decide to do your own end of tenancy clean. Remember, every single part of the house needs cleaning!

Not one part can be missed or your landlords/agents WILL pick up on it and if you decide not to go back and rectify the problem, which can be a pain especially if you have moved out of the area and possibly into another county, then you will be charged an amount out of your deposit and this can cost a small fortune. TRUST ME, I know as I deal with many many landlords and letting agents each month so I know this business inside out.

If you do choose to use a reputable cleaning company for your one off clean then make sure any problems regarding your clean that they do go back and rectify the problem as this can also become a problem with your landlords.

I have wrote an article regarding some letting agents and landlords not letting your cleaners go back to clean the property if they are saying the clean isn't up to scratch then making you use their own cleaners and charging you a massive chunk out of your deposit. This is unacceptable behaviour from the letting agents/landlords as it is down to you and your cleaning company to rectify any problems.

It is a little scam that numerous letting agents/landlords have been getting away with for quite some time and I have wrote a massive article about it and will soon be published to help tenants who are being ripped off and not just by dodgy landlords also it is a common practice with what you may call some leading estate agents/letting agents and this has got to stop!

The worst affected tenants have been the ones who are moving out of the area as they feel they cannot do anything about it because they have already moved so far away! A good cleaning company WILL work alongside your needs right up until the clean has been completed to 100 percent satisfaction by BOTH PARTIES.

If you feel that you are being treated unfairly or your landlords are telling you that your cleaning company cannot go back and finish the clean then this is a classic little scam and you WILL get charged money from your deposit so DO NOT agree to using your landlords/letting agents cleaning company if you have already paid your own cleaning company to do your end of tenancy clean for you. Be polite and ask them for the keys back if you have already handed them over already and tell them its no problem you already have a reputable cleaning company working for you and that they already said any problems they will go back and rectify.

DO NOT give in to what they tell you TRUST ME in regards to them saying you cannot use your own cleaning company again! It is because they want your money and they will probably slate your cleaning company and say anything for you to not use that cleaning company again and it leaves a sour taste in the mouth of the tenants and cleaning company which isn't fair especially after you probably would have had a good rapport with the cleaning company you are using. The tactics used are by some landlords quite appalling. You may think you have had a good rapport with these agents/landlords all along your tenancy but of course everything will be ok as you have been paying your rent on time and haven't caused any problems, unless you are a problem tenant then you must expect problems back,  but if you are moving out of their home and especially to another area miles away then you may experience some rather under hand tactics and to be honest quite tacky in order for them to make a few hundred pounds!

There are many REPUTABLE letting agents and landlords across Chester and I have an extensive list and portfolio of clients who use our services quite regularly and will provide a list for you should you ever wish to rent a new home from one and ones whom I know there will be no problems with your end of tenancy clean whether that be a short term let or a long term let!

The last thing you want when you are moving home is to encounter problems as alls you want to do is move out peacefully and leave the property in the same state you left it in, which pleases a landlord more than anything else as well as paying your rent, then look forward to moving into your new home as this can be quite a stressful time too so encountering any problems with your landlords is the least you need to be worrying about as its them who hold your deposit.

Always stay assertive and always take photos of your clean as proof that the clean was done to a high standard as if it wasn't up to scratch then you would notice anyway! Stay calm and talk to your cleaning company should you encounter any problems and do not worry as you can both work together to get any problems sorted.

If you are moving home soon and require any advice regarding your end of tenancy clean please feel free to EMAIL ME USING MY CONTACT FORM anytime. I will always get back to you the same working day or early evening is best as Im in peoples homes most of the day CLEANING!

Kind regards.
