Regular cleaning versus deep cleaning

Most of the time, clients are hesitant about how often they should have their home cleaned when they deal with us and request professional residential cleaning services for their home. The right or wrong answer is impossible, however, the decision is based on different criteria that can affect the frequency of cleaning. Our range of residential cleaning services can be weekly, bi-weekly, monthly or quarterly.

Below are some important aspects of each residential cleaning frequency:

• Weekly Cleaning

We recommend weekly cleaning for those who have a busy schedule and cannot effectively clean their house, cottage, building, villa, apartment or condo themselves, or who would prefer to take advantage of their free time to do other activities than regular cleaning of their home. This recommendation also takes into account children and pets, as homes with pets naturally tend to get dirty faster.

• Biweekly cleaning

Do you do regular day-to-day cleaning but are looking for an extra hand? Then bi-weekly residential cleaning is perfect for you and is very popular.

• Monthly cleaning

This option is interesting for those who maintain their own home on a daily basis but want regular cleaning services provided by professional maids cleaners in Montreal, North Shore, South Shore, Quebec City, Gatineau and Ottawa. Please note that the cost of less regular cleaning is more expensive than weekly cleaning due to the workload required to perform this type of cleaning.

• Quarterly cleaning

A professional spring cleaning or deep cleaning four times a year is exactly what you need to improve the quality of life in your home and to complete your regular cleaning program. You may not have the time to do a full spring cleaning and we will be happy to help you.

We strive to help you. Our residential cleaning services are tailored to your needs and requirements.

There are several factors that determine the cost of a regular cleaning visit. We have tried to list some of them here.

Tips and tricks to keep your home clean every day

In general, everyone loves to live in a perfectly cleaned and impeccably maintained apartment or house. Therefore, weekly cleaning is recommended by the majority of Canadian citizens. However, is this frequency of cleaning enough?

How often should you clean your home? Here is a practical guide detailing the different stages of cleaning and the regularity of their execution.

Weekly regular cleaning

In general, cleaning requires at least one day per week. In this case, you need to identify the areas of the house that require more care.

Microwave Cleaning

Microwaves are often used but not always cleaned every week. That’s why it’s time for you to put the microwave on your regular cleaning list. Indeed, these appliances are a major source of bacteria, which can then pollute your food. To do an effective cleaning for your microwave, simply clean the inside and outside of the microwave with a wet cloth and a little dishwashing detergent. Clean the inside and outside, including the doors. In addition, it is advisable to remove the removable plate from the microwave and clean it by hand in the sink.

Washing bedding

It is important to wash your bedding regularly. This is because your bed linens are a prime location for dust mites, bacteria, dirt and germs. Therefore, be sure to wash your sheets and pillows regularly, at least once a week, using the washing machine.

Cleaning the bathroom and sanitary facilities

The toilet and bathtub are the dirtiest areas of the bathroom. In fact, the bathroom and bathtub are usually full of bacteria and germs. You need to use a special bathroom cleaner or cleaning product to disinfect your toilet and bathtub. You can also use shower sprays in the bathtub on a daily basis to ensure that all bacteria are killed.

How do I clean sinks and glass surfaces?

After cleaning the bathtub and toilet, you should also clean these surfaces. This is because dirt and dust can build up on bathroom surfaces and mirrors. To do this, simply clean your countertops and mirrors using a damp cloth with water and cleaner. For mirrors, spray a window cleaner and wipe them down with a paper towel.

Cleaning the office area

An office is a place you can clean less often than other rooms in the house because you don’t use them too regularly. On the other hand, weekly cleaning is recommended for people who spend a lot of time on the desk. The office is a real hotbed for bacteria, especially on the computer.

Use an all-purpose cleaner and spray it all around your desk. Use a cloth to wipe it down. Pay special attention to your computer and any other items you use frequently.

Normal dusting

Furniture, such as tables and other equipment, should be dusted weekly. It is best to do this daily to prevent dust from accumulating.

Monthly cleaning

Once the routine cleaning tasks are done, there are specific tasks that need to be done each month. Below is a detailed description of each of these cleaning tasks that you too often ignore.

Deep Cleaning

Dust is everywhere in your house, apartment or condo, not just on your furniture. You will also find it under the couch, on the windows and even on the walls. It is advisable to have these areas dusted monthly.

Refrigerator cleaning and disinfection

The fridge can contain a lot of bacteria and food residue. On the other hand, you do not need to clean the fridge every day, contrary to what you think. It is advisable to clean your refrigerator once a month to make it clean.

If your refrigerator is not very dirty, you can use a damp cloth and a little dishwashing detergent. On the other hand, if your refrigerator is too dirty, you can clean it with white vinegar and a sanitary towel. Clean the entire surface of the fridge, especially the drawers.

Cleaning light fixtures

Did you know that poorly cleaned fixtures produce dim light? In this case, use a dry cloth and clean the bulbs and turn off the lights.

Cleaning Ceiling Fans

Ceiling fans are usually a source of dirt and dust. However, this dust is often dispersed in the air! To remove the dust from the fan blades, you will need a suitable duster.

Cleaning the walls

Keep in mind that walls do not need to be cleaned every month. However, some areas, such as those near your trash can, do require more regular cleaning. All you need for this is a damp cloth with cleaning fluid.

Cleaning air vents

The vents in your rooms get a lot dustier on a daily basis than you think. Use a cloth and wipe off the dust. This prevents dust and dirt from getting into the air.

Cleaning under furniture and chairs

Wondering what’s under your cushions? You’ll be surprised at how much dust you’ll find there! Set aside a day each month to lift each cushion and clean the underside.

Window Cleaning

Monthly cleaning of the inside and outside of windows with a window cleaner is necessary, especially for those that are accessible. Window sills and blinds should also be cleaned.

Cleaning appliances

Have you recently cleaned your oven or washing machine? Don’t wait for spring cleaning to clean these appliances. It’s important to do a thorough cleaning of the oven, disposer, dishwasher, cooktop and washing machine.

Cleaning every two months

For some tasks, cleaning is often done on an occasional basis. Sometimes they don’t even clean them at all. Below is what you should clean every two to four months.

Washing pillows

Regular cleaning of your pillows is a must. Not only your sheets, but also your pillow covers. For machine washing, it is recommended to use hot water and a suitable cleaning product. Some pillows are best washed by hand, especially latex, memory foam, feather and down pillows.

For drying, you can place your pillows in the dryer, at low temperature. You can also opt to air dry and place them in the dryer on the “fluff” setting.

Cleaning your carpet

Carpets and rugs are full of germs and bacteria that cannot be removed by vacuuming. It is advisable to have your carpets cleaned by specialists at regular intervals. However, it is possible to wash your carpet less frequently when there are no children or pets present.

How should you clean your house?

It’s time to spring clean your home, apartment or condo, but not too quickly. We leave the windows open longer, we use the kitchen and bathroom more regularly, we leave cigarette dust and food crumbs lying around the house.

It’s not always easy to deal with this mess, especially when you only have a few minutes to go through the floor before moving on to your next task.

It’s springtime and your home needs a major cleaning

Most home cleaning jobs can be done with a few key items: a vacuum cleaner, a mop, microfiber towels and an all-purpose cleaning product.

For kitchen and bathroom cleaning, you’ll need to use the right cleaning products, such as bathtub, tile and toilet cleaners. In addition, cleaners specifically designed for surfaces such as stainless steel and wood will also be useful.

Deep cleaning requires specific cleaning of inaccessible areas. That’s why trying to clean your entire home in one day is sometimes impractical. Therefore, you can make the task easier by focusing on the part of the house that requires a more thorough cleaning, such as a bedroom, bathroom or kitchen, which will guarantee a quick sense of satisfaction.

Start at the top

Since dust settles on the floor during cleaning, it’s best and most logical to start cleaning at the ceiling before working your way down. Ceiling fans are often covered with a thick layer of dust and require a thorough cleaning.

Cleaning and disinfection of heavily affected surfaces

Because of the coronavirus, it has become necessary to disinfect all surfaces that come into direct contact in public. At home, they are often a problem: door handles, light switches, cabinet and appliance handles, faucet handles, etc. We touch these surfaces many times a day, but rarely clean them. Wipe them down with a cloth and an all-purpose cleaner and shine them up to a clean look.

Clean your pictures and windows

Left unattended for several months, your paintings and frames can become covered in dust. Take advantage of the time when you’re doing a major cleaning to give frames and windows a good cleaning.

Give bathrooms a higher profile

Even though regular bathroom cleaning consists of washing the bathtub, shower and toilet, it is common to neglect cleaning certain areas of the bathroom, especially the pipes, unless they are blocked or have an unpleasant odor. In order to avoid this, they must be cleaned without waiting for problems.

Clean and degrease your kitchen

Cleaning the kitchen always requires quite a bit of time, especially if you cook a lot at home. So, you need to locate the grease stains that are on, under and next to the stove, and clean them using detergent and water or a degreaser. Cleaning the refrigerator and freezer and also the cabinets and drawers is essential. Finally, it is necessary to wash the garbage cans and clean the areas under the sink to avoid bad odors.

How to effectively clean your floors?

After the cleaning of all surfaces, it is necessary to clean and disinfect the floors. Wooden, ceramic and other floors should be mopped first with a sweeper.

For carpets, furniture should be moved around to ensure that all surfaces are clean.

Carpets should be rolled up so you can mop underneath. If necessary, tap the carpets outside to remove accumulated dust.

Once you have finished cleaning your home, you need to keep it fresh by cleaning it regularly and more efficiently. By doing so, it will be easier for you to avoid having to do it all again.
