Section 2: Room-by-Room Guide


Deep Cleaning Your Living Room

  • Start by dusting the whole item from front to back, and wipe down all dust from the corners of all spaces and surfaces. It can be electronics (screens or gadgets), accessories, shelves, and corners. Use a microfiber cloth for easy and effective dusting.


  • Clean upholstery thoroughly and then meticulously vacuum your carpet. Use wide, ultra-fine brushes to achieve a superficial, deep cleaning for dust- and stain-free surfaces.


  • Vacuum everything, whether it's a curtain, carpet, or curtains. Wash and clean windows, doors, and walls thoroughly. Follow the procedure of sweeping, vacuuming, mopping, rinsing off, and wiping and disinfecting everything that is demanded. Organise and declutter your studio as it was, or set up a new and more beneficial interior setting. 


Deep Cleaning Your Kitchen

Step-by-step cleaning procedures


  • Begin by thoroughly cleaning essential appliances such as the oven, microwave, refrigerator, and dishwasher. After detailed wiping, line the bottom with newspaper to prevent dust accumulation.

  • Wipe out cabinets from inside and out, front and back. Customise cleaning methods, such as tepid water with dish soap for laminate and painted surfaces. 

  • Start cleaning the counters; scrub when needed if the surface requires deep cleaning for stuffed dirt. Pay attention to corners and edges; wipe them, allow them to dry, and then disinfect them.

  • Move forward to the sink and faucet; start by scrubbing the basin

  • Use cleaner that protects the shine, and make it stainless by removing the dirt and stains to make it perfectly clean. 

  • Mop flooring, dry the floor properly, and declutter your stuff according to the customised usage for an enhanced and efficient organisation. 


Deep Cleaning Your Bathrooms

  • For the safety and shell life of your shower curtains and essentials, use labels as guidelines, wash shower curtains based on the requirements, hand them, and let them dry. If needed, go for a new one. 

  • Remove water stains and soap scum from the shower doors thoroughly, leverage white vinegar heat from the distilled vinegar apple for 30 minutes on the doors, and then sprinkle some baking soda, start rubbing slightly, and wipe it out. 

  • Focus on tiles and floor surfaces; start scrubbing using grout brushes for the desired cleaning levels. Use the appropriate size of the mould, as it specifies the edges to be cleaned with deep appropriation and cleanliness to prevent stains and dirt.

  • Come towards the tub, or bathtub, with the help of a cleaner and scrubbed, and clean deeply so that no water stains or soap scums are left out. Disinfect dry and repeat the procedure for the toilet bowl attentively.

  • Clan and wipe the mirror before removing stains and smudges, and fix this with a specialised mirror cleaner.

  • Wash and rub with a suitable cleaner to remove all the remaining spots and filth, clean in detail, wipe, and leave it to dry.

  • Declutter all of your accessories into deservingly appropriate places: bath bombs, soap and cleaners, shower gel, and other stuff. 


Deep Cleaning Your Bedrooms

  • Remove bed sheets and wall coverings, whether a duvet cover, bed skirt, down-filled items, or pillow covers. Remove and wash thoroughly to clean every item to maintain quality and cleanliness. 

  • After laundering, polish and clean the furniture and surfaces, including shelves, furniture, cupboards, side corners, and dressers. Use a microfiber multipurpose cloth for deep dusting to restore shine and remove dust.

  • Vacuum your carpets and vital stuff; mop your flooring. To reach the corners and furniture, use numerous moulds to reach the corners for optimum cleanliness.

  • Declutter and revamp your wardrobe to see what will come, what you can donate, and what will remain the same. Your wardrobe must be nice to keep it under control or make yourself more organised.


Deep Cleaning Your Additional Spaces (Attic, Basement, etc.)

  • Organise and clean your storage spaces by removing useless or unnecessary items to maximise functionality and handiness. Incorporate bins and storage savers or keeps for better-organised shelves in your shelves and cabinets. 

  • Inspect spaces like the basement or attic for mould and vermin problems. Look for indications of leaks, pest infestations, or mould growth. Deal with any problems as soon as possible to stop more harm.


Section 3: Finishing Touches

As you finish deep cleaning, do last-minute inspections and touch-ups to ensure every nook and cranny is immaculate. Seek out any overlooked areas, smudges, or dust and take immediate action. Adding pleasing smells can improve your house's atmosphere. 

Use scented candles, room sprays, and essential oil diffusers to create a welcome and revitalising scent. A well-selected fragrance covers any residual aromas from cleaning products and makes your home seem cosy for everybody who arrives.
