Studies show that an average American spends six hours cleaning every week. But home cleaning can be stressful over time, especially if you are the only one who does the cleaning.
Sam’s Cleaning and Hauling understand this kind of predicament. It is why we create a guide for homeowners to follow to make their home spick and span.
How Frequent Should You Clean Your Home?
How frequently you clean your home depends on the size, use frequency of a room, types of furniture and items you have, etc. Some things need cleaning daily, while general cleaning is once a week. Deep cleaning of your home, meanwhile, is done every few months or annually.
Daily Cleaning
Bathroom and Kitchen Floors
Every day sweeping will clear the crumbs, and mopping will remove the grease buildup from food preparation.
Daily bathroom cleaning removes a potential hazard and inhibits the growth of mold and mildew.
Countertops
Countertops made from natural stone can harbor mold, fungi, and bacteria. Maintaining the surface dry and clean can prevent the growth of bacteria that causes illnesses.
Every Few Days
Sinks
The best method to maintain the cleanliness of your kitchen and bathroom sink drains is routine preventative maintenance. Clear out any accumulated rubbish on drain guards and pop-ups. To keep pipes clear, run hot water or a homemade vinegar solution down the sink drain every few days.
Clutter
Daily removal of clutter can be difficult, especially if you do those things every day. It is advisable to clean up the mess every few days to prevent the accumulation of dust that contains allergens.
