Some people go months without cleaning certain rooms in their home, while other people deep clean every nook and cranny in their home on a weekly basis. So, how often do you really need to clean your home? Let’s find out!
Living Room
Your living room might be the most commonly used area in your home, making it easy for dirt and dust to accumulate in this space. Every day, your kids and pets spend time sitting on the couch and laying on the rugs. Even as an adult, you may sometimes drop food as you’re eating a meal while watching TV or you may occasionally spill a drink on your coffee table.
As soon as you notice a mess or stain in your living room (or any room for that matter), make sure to clean it up right away to prevent permanent damage on your furniture or floors! We recommend getting your carpets and upholstery professionally cleaned by a carpet cleaner in Orange County once or twice a year. Your area and oriental rugs in your living room should also be vacuumed and professionally cleaned regularly to keep their color and texture from getting dull and worn.
Let’s not forget about dusting! Dusting every week is essential to prevent dust from accumulating on your bookshelf, TV, fans, blinds, picture frames, and more. Even if dust seems invisible, we guarantee it’s there and it may be affecting your health!
Kitchen
Your kitchen is another area of your home that requires more frequent cleaning. You should never let a liquid or food spill sit on your tile or wood floor for too long because it can seep into the pores of the floor. This can make it extremely difficult to clean up later on. We also recommend wiping down your countertops every day.
Besides regularly cleaning up spills and wiping down your countertops, you should mop your floors at least every two weeks. If you have stone tiles, maintain them with regular mopping, but also schedule a professional tile cleaning every few months to keep those areas free from dirt and grime.
Bathrooms
Just about everyone hates cleaning the bathroom, but it’s a job that must be done! Every few days, you should clean up any built-up residue in the sink with a damp cloth or paper towel. Keep an eye on your sink and shower fixtures for any calcium build-up due to hard water and clean it up when necessary. If you have a water softener, be sure to keep it stocked to prevent this kind of buildup.
Every week, you should clean the outside of your toilet with a cleaner wipe and then scrub the inside of your toilet bowl with a toilet brush. Mop the floors every week or two if possible, and swap out your towels for new ones on a regular basis to prevent dust growth. Get your shower and floor tiles cleaned by a professional tile cleaner in Orange County a few times a year to keep them free from dirt and grime.
Bedrooms
Depending on how much time you spend in your bedroom, it can get quite dirty in just a short amount of time. Some people go a month or two without washing their sheets, but most experts recommend washing your sheets every other week to wash out the dead skin, sweat build-up, and other dirt in the material.
