At Sparkly Maid, we understand that deep cleaning goes beyond a mere routine of bringing life into your space-one, for instance, that is clean, inviting, organized, and well-conducive. Below, you will find a professional guide crafted with the aim of helping you achieve unparalleled levels of cleanliness across your home.

Living Areas

• Declutter: At Sparkly Maid we start with assessing your belongings. Things that serve no purpose or have not been used recently must be discarded. This practice will not only help clean the place but will lighten up your mind as well.

• Dusting: Lightly sweep all surfaces with microfiber cloths or dusting wands. Pay particular attention to less apparent surfaces, along the top of picture frames, the bottom side of furniture, and even those too-easily-passed-by air vents.

• Upholstery: The vacuum should be used on all fabric surfaces, including sofas, chairs, and curtains. For the removal of stains, consult the instructions manufactured or employ a professional-grade upholstery cleaner to first test on an obscure area.

• Windows and Mirrors: Sparkly Maid believes this should be done with a solution of distilled water and white vinegar to leave it streak-free. Professional cleaners may add a dash of isopropyl alcohol to give it an evenátu shine. Clean both sides of windows for maximum transparency.

• Floors: After the elimination of loose debris by sweeping or vacuuming, a thorough vacuum should be done, especially on carpeted edges and under furniture. As for hard floors, clean them with a cleaner suitable for your floor type, then go over them with a dry mop or cloth to take way any residual moisture.

Kitchen

• Refrigerator: Sparkly Maid clears out contents and discard expired or suspicious materials. Clean each shelf and drawer with mild soapy water. Heavy deposits can be cleaned off with a paste of baking soda and water. Allow to dry everything before restocking refrigerator with food.

• Oven: Soak racks in soapy water. Apply an oven cleaner or a heavy paste of baking soda to interior, allowing it to stay overnight if necessary. Scrub carefully; make sure all surfaces are cleaned to avoid any form of taste contamination.

• Stovetop and Range Hood: The stove should be cleaned with a degreaser or some vinegar-mixed baking soda paste. The range hood needs to be disassembled for proper cleaning; its filters can often be washed or replaced.

• Cabinets: Take everything out of the cabinets and wipe the interior down with disinfectant. Also, this would be a very good time to rearrange the items and to line each shelf for easier cleaning in the future.

• Floors: Once the upper surfaces have been attended to, carefully vacuum or sweep the floor. Mop with a solution specific to your floor type; make sure to leave no residual marks.

Bathrooms

• Toilet: By hiring Sparkly Maid you can be sure we will use professional-grade cleaning solutions and disinfectants. Scrub all surfaces, including underneath the rim and the base. For the hard water stains, one can try using a pumice stone, but this should be done with caution to ensure that there is no scratching.

• Shower and Tub: Apply bathroom cleaner to tiles and grout; let it sit for mildew or soap scum removal. Scrub with a grout brush for detailed cleaning. Rinse surfaces well.

• Sinks and Mirrors: Sinks Clean grout with any of the solutions above. To clean sinks, use a cleaner designed to combat mineral deposits. Mirrors A cleaner specifically for glass or the above vinegar solution* will keep it clear and free of streaks.

• Grout: For grout, special attention or care needs to be taken. A grout cleaner or hydrogen peroxide mixed with baking soda will whiten and sanitize it.

Bedrooms

• Bedding: Completely strip beds and launder all linens in the hottest temperature recommended. Vacuum mattresses, possibly using a mattress cleaner or sprinkling baking soda to absorb odors.

• Closets: First of all, serious decluttering should be done in preparation for actual cleaning. Organize remaining items, dust shelves, and vacuum the floor. Dusting: This place is so full of dust particles; make sure to dust everything, even in places underneath the bed, inside the drawers, and on top of wardrobes.

General Tips

• Air Vents: Cleaning or replacing filters in these can help in maintaining air quality.

• Baseboards: These are commonly overlooked and should be wiped down or vacuumed frequently.

• Light Fixtures: Clean bulbs and fixtures using a soft cloth or appropriate cleaning tools for optimum light output.

• Electronics: Utilize cleaning products for electronics only, to avoid any damage.

At Sparkly Maid, we always remember that deep cleaning is not just getting rid of dirt but an act of creating an environment in which the details scream of care and quality. This checklist is intended to help you go through every step necessary to ensure that your homes are not only clean but a haven for comfort and hygiene.
