What to Have Professionally Cleaned After the Holidays
With the holidays right behind us, you’re probably looking at your house and thinking that it could look and smell better than it does. Here’s a handy list you can use to guide you on what you need to clean as well as how to get it done so that you can reclaim a clean, comfortable space that you enjoy being in.
Hardwood Floors
Your home’s hardwood floor, despite regular cleaning, will need a deeper cleaning done after some period of use. After the holidays is a great time to get a deep cleaning to get out any stains that may have occurred during the festivities. Have it cleaned professionally with a highly effective, eco-friendly cleaning method that will get out all the accumulated dirt and grime as well as scuffs from pets and children running over it and leave it looking stunning in just one cleaning. You can enjoy clean hardwood floors that feel and look as good as new once again.
The Upholstery
After hosting scores of guests during the holidays, or simply spending more time indoors to relax and enjoy the break, you likely have stains and dirt embedded in your upholstery. Oils, allergens, and dirt collecting on your seats and upholstered furniture all contribute to dullness and odors, which may have you feeling like you need to reupholster or even replace them. This is not the only solution available to you, because a deep cleaning by professionals can have your headboards, seats, ottomans, and stools looking and smelling as good as new.
The Countertops
The holidays are characterized by fun meals with family and friends, and lots of snacking in between meals. Since the kitchen clearly sees a high volume of traffic in this period, it goes without saying that the surfaces and countertops will end up dirty and grimy. This dirt can get into areas that you can’t easily reach with your regular cleaning tools and accumulate to levels that will be a headache to effectively deal with yourself. Getting them deep cleaned will leave you with a clean kitchen in which you’ll be proud to host more parties in the future. Stat Floor Cleaning uses non-toxic cleaners that will get rid of the dirt without posing a risk to your health in any way, whatever material your countertops are made of.
Area Rugs and Carpet
Area rugs are great for keeping your family’s feet warm while indoors, especially in cold weather, which is typical for most places during the holidays. Whether you got new ones or had your current ones cleaned up in readiness for the festivities, you may be thinking that they are looking dingy after the holidays. The same goes for your carpet, just probably on a much larger scale. There may be visible stains or an unpleasant smell that you’re wondering about how to get out of your home. The solution is to have it deep cleaned. The eco-friendly cleaners we use at Stat Floor Cleaning will leave your entire home smelling amazing while your carpet looks fresh and clean.
The Tiles and Grout
The final thing you might need to clean after the holidays is the tile and grout in your home. As mentioned, the holidays were a time during which your home probably experienced more traffic than it has in a while, so areas with grout, like your kitchen or bathroom, were also used more regularly. Over time, grime can collect in the grout and harbor bacteria and germs that your home and family are better off without. If your grouted areas have grown discolored and it’s been a while since you had them looking as good as they did when they were installed, you need to have them deep cleaned. If there are porous areas surrounding them, Stat Floor Cleaning can also seal them to keep them safe from germs and buildup in the future.
Once you have the five things outlined above cleaned, you can take a step back and admire your beautiful home. Getting the help of professional cleaners will enable you to get the job done a lot faster and more efficiently, saving you the hassle and guesswork of how to get certain stains out.
Stat Floor Cleaning can help you with this, so go ahead and give us a call at your convenience. You’ll be happy you did.
