What You Should Consider Cleaning as You Move Into a New Home
October 4, 2019
Moving into a new home is always an exciting experience. However, if
it is a house that was recently vacated by previous tenants, it may
not always be in the best
condition. If you are moving into a neighborhood that is classified as a
rental property, then the management company will do everything they
can to prepare the house to receive new occupants. Even so, here’s
what you need to think about getting cleaned while you settle into
your new abode.
Cleaning Up the Carpets
A clean carpet can make a world of difference. If your new home is filled
with wall-to-wall carpeting, then this is even more important to get taken
care of, especially since moving in can kick up scary amounts of dust.
Decreasing the number of allergens caught in the carpet is one of the most
significant reasons to get this done. Some examples include
dust mites, fleas, germs, bacteria, and putrid odors. A deep clean can also get rid
of any residual mess or strong odors left behind by the contractors who
worked to build your new home. Any stains or spots that are too stubborn
for the average homeowner will also be revealed as well.
Cleaning Up the Tile and Grout
We cannot emphasize enough how important it is to get the tile cleaned up.
Soap scum, grease stains on the backsplash, mold, and mildew are all
incredibly tough to remove, and household cleaning solutions might not be
enough to get the job done. That’s another strong reason to have a
professional residential cleaning
service
swoop into the save the day! Next, be sure to inspect the condition of the
grout in your home. While tile is easier to get cleaned, it can be more
challenging to make sure the grout stays clean. Deep cleaning the grout
removes all of the dirt, germs, and grime that can build up inside it.
Make sure that the grout gets sealed as well; you may not know this, but
grout is surprisingly porous. Even before you are all moved in, it’s worth
it to get the grout cleaned and sealed correctly – this way it will last
even longer!
Cleaning Up the Air Ducts
Don’t forget to get the air ducts cleaned up as well! It is one of the
most important tasks to accomplish as soon as you move into a new home.
That’s because you don’t know what the previous residents left behind in
the air ducts and you definitely don’t want it to affect the indoor air
quality, which could make you or your family members sick.
