Cleanliness is next to Godliness, cleaning requires a lot of
effort and planning to obtain a desired result. Cleaning is done for the
purpose of hygiene, appearance and to prevent deterioration. It needs to be
done in a procedural way to remove dust, dirt or any foreign matter, which
largely depends on the furniture and flooring. The common procedure involves:
Dust all surfaces
Mop surroundings
Vacuum clean upholstery and carpet
To reduce the workload and minimise the strain, these
cleaning works can be easily divided and carried out on a leisurely basis. Weekends
can be used for specific cleaning process at home, with daily cleaning of
basics and spring cleaning the other at the best possible time like before
festivities.
Daily cleaning can be made easy by doing it in the morning
itself so that the dust which is settled in the night may not be stirred up
again. Start by airing the home by opening the windows. This action can be
exempted during cold seasons. Before sweeping, cover the upholstery and
difficult to clean pieces with protective materials. The rugs and doormats
needs to be taken out of the room and shake well. Then clean the room by dusting
and mopping.
In bedroom, bed should be made good and other things should
be arranged properly. In the living rooms the cushions should be neat and
placed in well. Old newspapers and flowers to be replaced with new and fresh ones.
Dustbins should be emptied. The curtains also should be well shaken.
Weekly cleaning requires more time than regular cleaning for
thorough cleaning and polishing. Weekly cleaning includes removal of cobwebs
from rooms, cupboards and dusting of high boards, cupboards tops and wall
coverings. A stool or step ladder is highly helpful. Articles which require
special attention are then attended such as paintings, polishing, metal pieces,
windows and necessary polish of furniture.
Spring cleaning is a task which includes plumbing and
electric works apart from furniture and floor works. Sometimes its best to complete
white wash & painting work. Change of interiors can also be added with this
cleaning programme. If this is done before festivities, it will add more glow
to the celebrations. Pay attention towards:
· Any of your specific needs
· Colour combinations
· Extra electrical fittings & boards
· Pest control work
· De clutter
Heavy work of cleaning can be
simplified with little focus and thorough examination of needs in the home.
Excess of everything is poisonous. So, don’t overload and cleaning helps in
this mission.
Have a sweet &clean home.
