Deep Cleaning Your Home: Ultimate Guide for a Fresh Start
Watermark

Deep cleaning your home may seem daunting, but it's an essential task that shouldn't be overlooked. Whether you're preparing to sell your house or simply aiming to freshen things up, dedicating time to deep cleaning is worthwhile.

It involves thorough removal of dirt and grime from all surfaces throughout your home. To make the process more manageable, consider tackling specific areas and tasks one at a time.

Part 1: Cleaning Appliances

Step 1: Clean your dishwasher. Before running a cleaning cycle, clear any loose food particles from the bottom of the dishwasher using a paper towel. Follow your dishwasher's manual for specific cleaning instructions.

Step 2: Wash your coffee maker. Empty the coffee filter and fill the reservoir with a mixture of warm water and white vinegar. Run the brew cycle halfway, let it sit for an hour, then finish the cycle with clean water.

Step 3: Clean your microwave. Place a container with water and lemon slices in the microwave, heat it for three minutes, then let it sit for another three minutes to loosen dirt. Wipe the interior with a paper towel.

Step 4: Clear out and clean your fridge. Dispose of old food and wash removable shelves and drawers with soapy water. Clean the exterior with a mixture of dish soap and water, paying attention to handles.

Step 5: Clean your oven. Soak oven racks in warm, soapy water, then scrub them clean. Follow your oven's cleaning instructions closely or manually clean it with a scrub brush and dish soap.

Part 2: Cleaning Your Bathroom

Step 1: Clean the shower and tubs. Remove shower caddies and scrub shower heads and walls with bathroom cleaner. Use a toothbrush for hard-to-reach areas and corners.

Step 2: Target the toilet. Apply toilet cleaner, scrub the bowl, then wipe down the exterior with bathroom cleaner. Wear gloves and wash your hands thoroughly afterward.

Step 3: Wipe down sinks and countertops. Remove items from countertops, spray with bathroom cleaner, and wipe clean. Use a toothbrush for faucets and tight spots.

Part 3: Removing Dust

Step 1: Remove dust from light fixtures and fans. Use a damp microfiber cloth to wipe down ceiling fans and light fixtures. Remove glass covers to clean inside.

Step 2: Target dust on the back of furniture. Use a vacuum cleaner attachment to remove dust from the back of furniture while cleaning.

Step 3: Dust off rugs. Vacuum both sides of rugs, and blot out any stains with warm water and a rag.

Step 4: Remove dust from mattresses. Use a vacuum's upholstery brush to remove dust from the mattress's surface and sides.

Part 4: Targeting Floors, Walls, and Windows

Step 1: Clean your window frames. Use a vacuum's nozzle to remove debris from window frames, then wipe them down with an all-purpose cleaner.

Step 2: Clean your windows. Inside and outside, use a commercial glass cleaner and wipe with a paper towel in the same direction for clear results.

Step 3: Wipe down your walls. Spritz a solution of warm water and dishwashing detergent on the walls, let it sit, then wipe clean with a damp rag.

Remember to test any cleaning solutions on a small, inconspicuous area first.
