It's time for a Fall Deep Clean!

Every time the seasons change, we feel the urge to refresh our homes. There is no simpler way to do this than to start with a deep clean by a professional cleaning company like Perfection Clean BC.

Once your deep clean is complete, you can assess clutter issues as well as focus on maintenance such as painting and carpet cleaning. Fall is the perfect time to spruce up your paint and maybe even choose a color that will reflect the crisp weather that is approaching.

How many cleaning services do you know that will do your laundry while they clean? Or fill your dishwasher and then empty it again after?

On average, the homeowner will fill and empty their dishwasher at least once a day (sometimes twice, depending on how many kids you have!) If you average that over 365 days in a year, you probably empty and fill that dishwasher almost 500 times. I don't know about you, but I'd like a break from the monotony every now and then.

The next time you have Perfection Cleaning BC come into your home, be sure to ask them to throw in a load of laundry or empty and fill your dishwasher. It's one of the perks that we throw in that really will ease your day!

When your house needs deep cleaning, you can expect to put some extra time in. Here are some quick tips for deep cleaning your bathrooms:
Cleaning your ceramic tiles and grout
A little elbow grease and an industrial cleaner such as CLR will have your shower shining in no time!
Spray the entire surface of your shower tile with CLR according to instructions. Wipe clean, focusing on scrubbing the grout.
Bleach is also a useful way to clean grout, and it's never been easier than with a bleach pen. Trace the lines and wipe clean when finished.
CLR or bleach works well in the toilet if you have a buildup. . Disinfecting wipes are vital
If you've got children, you've got a container of disinfecting wipes. Great for everything from spills to wiping down a messy cupboard, these wipes are a mother's best friend. Use them in the bathroom to wipe down outlet covers, light switches, sinks, and the toilet on a daily basis. It takes five minutes and it keeps the room clean beyond the surface.

Your toilet should be blue

Every toilet should have a blue flush-able installed. Why? It keeps your bowl clean long after it's been thoroughly scrubbed and polished. Clean your toilet with bleach or a commercial cleaner, then install a blue tablet in the tank. You can avoid scaly build up and keep your bowl fresher, longer.
Keep your bathroom clean between your Perfection Cleaning BC visits and watch your house sparkle!

Imagine waking up every day faced with a messy, disorganized home. Its frustrating, because often no matter how hard we try, a trail of toys, clothes, and dishes follows us throughout the day. When you try to clean, your children are underfoot, demanding your attention and keeping your house in a constant state of disarray. How do you combat the mess and have that fresh, show home feel in your own house when you have children?

Its easier to keep a house clean when you start with a clean house. Hire an independent house cleaning company for a monthly deep cleaning. House keepers will target the spots in your home that you might not normally have time to clean, such as doors knobs, baseboards, and blinds. Once your home is completely clean, you can begin to put plans into place to keep it that way.

Organization is the key to a clean house. Start by discarding any items that you no longer need, including older clothing, house hold items, or toys that your kids no longer play with. Eliminate toy clutter by putting a large basket wherever you find a toy pile. Children books can all go on shelves in their rooms or on one main shelf for all books. Involve your kids in organizing their toys and books by teaching them how to sort them by type, keeping all of their little pieces and odds and ends together. Children are much more likely to play with their toys if they are all readily available and not missing any pieces.

Dusting and vacuuming go hand in hand. Hand your child a portable duster and involve them in the process. There are many commercial, disposable dusters such as Pledge or Swiffers that your kids will be thrilled to 'play' with. You might have to redust after, but at the very least they will be entertained.

Although it's difficult to keep your home clean when you have children, following these few simple tips can help you keep your home as perfectly clean as any show home.
