Regular housekeeping is essential for every household to keep the levels of dust, mold and allergens low in the house. How often you need to clean your home will depend on your life style, kids, pets and how many occupants have allergies.
We always recommend a once-off Spring Cleaning, at least once or twice a year to get to those hard to reach places and to make the weekly house cleaning chores as smoothly as possible. A good spring clean can also help to prepare a smoother working environment for your daily cleaning chores and a new domestic worker you have just employed.
The following instruction will guide you through the whole process of keeping your home in a pristine condition, leaving you with an organized and healthier environment for your family.
REMEMBER: When you clean, always clean from top to bottom, so the last thing you do is mop or vacuum.

Open curtains and windows
Collect any dirty dishes/glasses and take to the scullery
Take damp towels to dry on line
Put a load of dirty laundry in the washing machine (if applicable)
