Cleaning Tips 

 

Obviously our cleaners don't need any tips but there may be the odd occasion where a Maid2Clean cleaner isn't around when you need them! So on this page we've tried to provide some helpful tips for those difficult to remove stains and those awkward cleaning jobs. If you have any tips not covered here that you'd like to share please send them to us, our email address is at the bottom of this page. Please also feel free to contact us if you need any advice on something that's not covered here.

Blocked Sinks
Blocked sinks can be a real problem and it's always better to prevent the problem rather than have to fix it later! To prevent your sink from becoming blocked, every couple of weeks put lots of salt down it, followed by boiling water straight from the kettle. Repeat this once more and you will hopefully never have blocked drains. The combination of salt and boiling water down the sink helps to unblock and clean the pipes, resulting in you not getting that sinking feeling!

Pour some baking soda down your drains and plugholes before you go away to keep them smelling fresh for your return.

Baking Soda
This is a very versatile cleaning product and completely harmless to most surfaces. Use a damp cloth sprinkled with baking soda to get rid of heavy dirt and grime. The baking soda will cut straight through the grease.

Glass Cleaning

 
Common ways of cleaning glass effectively are using glass cleaners and chamois leathers. Apply the glass cleaner with a cloth and buff up with another dry cloth.

Removing Stickers

Removing stickers is often a problem on most surfaces, leaving behind a sticky dust-collecting residue. Nail varnish remover is very effective at removing such a stubborn mark.

  

For other sticky materials such as chewing gum on carpets, don't try to pull it off. Freeze it first by placing ice cubes on it. Once frozen it will break off easily.

Red Wine Stains
Spilt red wine can be one of the worst nightmares, not just the sight of the stain but also the pungent smell. Using common salt can help to remove these stains by soaking up the colour. Sprinkle a little salt over the stained area and leave to absorb the colour. Then simply brush the salt off the area, and use biological detergent to remove the remaining stain.

Oven Cleaning
Purchase a general oven cleaner from your supermarket and apply to your whole oven, after removing all rods and trays. Use a sponge and scourer to remove any stubborn buildups and rinse with clean hot water.

Blinds
The most thorough way of cleaning mini-blinds is to take them off of the window and wash them in the bathtub using a mild detergent, warm water and a sponge. Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry.

Leather Furniture
Cleaning leather is a lot different from common sofa materials. Instead of using a vacuum on the sofas it is best to use a damp clean cloth to remove dust.
