It is finally, officially, Spring. How are you doing with your spring house cleaning? Have you started or still thinking about how much you have to do? Our previous articles on cleaning your house for spring have focused mainly on stripping down each room and removing dust and dirt from the top to the bottom of each room.
If you’ve been methodical about the routine you established for how to approach and deal with each room, you should be well on your way to a nice, clean house for the warmer weather season. If you’re still procrastinating, or worried about the time and upheaval this encompasses, you may really want to consider using a house cleaning service in Boston. Your local maid service is very adept at providing full spring cleaning services to its clientele. You would find the job done perfectly and precisely the first time. And, a house cleaning service would be able to do your entire home in less than one day. They have the manpower and the product to get the job done.

So, once you’ve done all your dusting, washing of drapes, window treatments, couch and chair covers, table coverings, wiped down all surfaces, wiped down your walls and baseboards, dusted away the cobwebs, washed your windows (the list seems endless, doesn’t it), it’s time to do a full and deep vacuum of your carpets.
When vacuuming your carpets, remember to use either a vacuum that has a double-bag system, high-grade HEPA filters and/or a steam attachment. Studies have shown that using steam cleaning products will significantly cut down on dust, allergens, dander, and dust mites. You might also find that another good thing to do in the spring is to use an actual carpet steamer or carpet washer to get up any hidden grime and dust mites that may be lurking beneath the carpet pile.
After all these items have been gone over, before you return your curtains and furniture covers, be sure you’ve wiped and shined any mirrors, brass fittings, cleaned the blades of your ceiling fans, and cleaned out the air filters for your air conditioner. If your weather is pleasant and not too much pollen in the air, open your windows and allow the fresh, spring air to enter.

Did you know that most reputable house cleaning services are willing to do most any type of cleaning job from small to large? You can hire a home cleaning service service to do anything from a simple, dust, vacuum and mop once a week, to having them come in and do an entire top to bottom major cleaning. When you weight out the savings you will get from having someone else do the cleaning for you, the time you will save, and the result of having a professionally cleaned home, you’ll certainly wonder why you waited so long.
