Haus Maids Petersfield: 5 Domestic Cleaning Mistakes to Avoid
How much do you trust your household cleaning skills?
Most people think they do a good enough job, and they might be right. However, there are several common cleaning mistakes you could be making that will negate all your hard work.
No one wants to waste their time and elbow grease. So, here are the top five things our house cleaners in Petersfield think everyone should watch out for when tackling their daily cleaning list…
Using too much product
When it comes to cleaning, the more product the better — right? Wrong.
Oversaturating cleaning materials like clothes can make it difficult to get a streak- and spot-free result, meaning you’ll end up spending more time buffing product away when a few drops would’ve done the trick.
Not leaving disinfectant to work
Many people don’t know that disinfectant sprays need prolonged contact time with a surface to be effective. So, a common cleaning mistake is wiping it away prematurely.
A treatment might need anything from 30 seconds to 10 minutes to work properly, so be sure to check the label before you clean!
Cleaning with dirty tools
You may do more harm than good if you try to clean your home using soiled materials, as these could spread more dirt and bacteria. Whether that’s a microfibre cloth or reusable mop head, ensure you’re sanitising them often to get a truly deep clean.
Kitchen sponges are particularly good at harbouring bacteria, so think twice before grabbing one and aim to replace them every month.
Starting with the floors
One of the most common cleaning mistakes our Petersfield home cleaners see is starting from the ground up.
Crumbs and dust will inevitably fall as you’re clearing higher counters and surfaces, so it makes good sense to start here and then finish with the floors to ensure you’re removing as much dirt as possible.
Trying to go it alone
For busy parents and on-the-go professionals, staying on top of domestic cleaning tasks can be a chore — and not something many people want to make time for. As a result, spaces can quickly become overrun with grime and clutter, adding unnecessary stress to everyday routines.
