This festive time of year we will be inviting guests into our homes as it is the season where friends and family gather together. What better excuse to deep clean your home, noting feels better than your home when it looks and smells fresh and ready for guests and indeed any unexpected visitors. let me guide you through how to get your home ready for this Christmas and New Year. Make sure you start early and don’t leave cleaning until the last minute, a good clean will take at least several days. lets get started…..
Declutter:
Before any tinsel and decorations get pulled out of the attic make sure there is plenty of room for them. Store any furniture away or things that you don’t need and make room for your tree and Christmas ornaments. If we leave everything as it is and then add Christmas decorations etc on top of everything the place can look very cluttered and there may not be much room to entertain and the place may seem untidy.
Carpets and Upholstery:
Now is a good time to take a good look at your carpets and upholstery including sofas, chairs and tables. Guests will spend most of their visit on your sofas, so it’s important that they look their best.
We often forget to routinely clean certain things in our home, from curtains to cushion covers. Washing them can make a big difference to a room, just like a breath of fresh air in your home. Also, don’t forget to get your dinner table covers ready in time for Christmas dinner.
If your floors are carpeted, it’s the most wonderful time of year to give them a deep clean. This extracts dirt that’s buried deep within carpet fibres, while vacuuming only removes the surface layer of dust a professional can deep clean your carpets and have them looking like new in just one visit. check out our sitting room package here Sitting Room Package and welcome family and friends with a contented heart. Relax and enjoy the company instead of fretting about your carpet and upholstery.
Guest Room:
Don’t forget if your having visitors staying for Christmas to make sure this room is immaculate. You will need to tackle every place in the room, including under the bed and above the door frames. If the room is infrequently used, make sure you freshly wash the bedding to eliminate any dust or pet hairs. If carpets need a deep clean now is the time to hire in a professional. Properly cleaned carpets not only look better but they also last longer. They will help to enhance the appearance of your room, whilst allowing you and your guests to enjoy a fresher healthier environment.
Final Touches
After a thorough deep clean, you’ll only need to do some quick touch-ups before the celebrations commence. Wipe over surfaces and scrub away any stains, as well as vacuuming your carpets and removing any Christmas tree needles.
Before your guests arrive, ensure the bathroom has clean towels and bleach the toilet. It’s also worth emptying all the bins in advance so you can enjoy a chore-free Christmas. As well as all the essentials, get into the festive spirit by decking the halls with scented candles.
Finally, make sure your glasses are all sparkling clean. As long as you’ve got the mulled wine, it should be time to get the party started!
