How Often Should You Really Clean Your Home? Advice from the Bishop’s Stortford Cleaning Experts

 “How often should I clean…?” It’s one of the most common questions we hear from clients across Bishop’s Stortford – and the answer isn’t always straightforward. Whether you’re managing a busy household, working from home, or just want to stay on top of the mess, knowing how often to clean certain areas of your home can make a big difference.

At Haus Maids Bishop’s Stortford, we provide professional, reliable domestic cleaning services tailored to your lifestyle. Here’s our expert guide to how often you really need to clean each part of your home – and how we can help.

Living Rooms – Every 1 to 2 Weeks

Your living room sees a lot of traffic, especially if you have children or pets. Dust, crumbs, and general wear can build up quickly. We recommend:

  • Dusting all surfaces weekly
  • Vacuuming carpets or rugs at least once a week
  • Spot-cleaning upholstery as needed

A weekly cleaner in Bishop’s Stortford can help keep your lounge spotless, without the stress.

Bathrooms – At Least Once a Week

Bathrooms are a hotspot for bacteria, mould, and odours. Key tasks include:

  • Disinfecting toilets, sinks, and taps
  • Cleaning showers, screens, and tiles
  • Polishing mirrors and wiping surfaces

Many of our clients in Bishop’s Stortford choose a weekly domestic cleaning plan just to stay on top of bathroom hygiene — especially in busy family homes.

Kitchens – 2 to 3 Times a Week (Minimum)

Your kitchen is the heart of your home – and one of the most important areas to keep clean. Food spills, grease, and bacteria can build up quickly. We suggest:

  • Wiping surfaces daily
  • Deep-cleaning appliances weekly
  • Mopping floors once or twice per week

With a professional cleaner, your kitchen stays safe, sanitised, and sparkling.

Bedrooms – Weekly

While bedrooms may seem less demanding, they still collect dust, hair, and allergens. We recommend:

  • Dusting furniture weekly
  • Changing bed linen weekly
  • Vacuuming carpets or under beds regularly

Let our Bishop’s Stortford home cleaners keep your bedrooms fresh and restful.

The Deep Clean – Once Every 3 to 6 Months

Even if you clean regularly, a deep clean is essential a few times a year to tackle:

  • Skirting boards
  • Behind appliances
  • Inside cupboards
  • Light fittings and high-up surfaces
