If we asked you what your favourite pastime was, we’d be willing to bet your answer wouldn’t be cleaning. Don’t worry, as you’re not alone in this mind-set. Most of us love having a clean home; we just don’t have the time to actually clean and maintain that cleanliness sometimes.

So, wouldn’t it be nice if someone else did the dirty work for us? If you agree with that, then chances are that a professional cleaning company that specialises in these services could help alleviate some of your responsibilities.

The best part of availing of such a service is that everything in your home will look shiny and new which is something that you wouldn’t be able to achieve on your own – without putting in hours of elbow grease of course. To get an overall result that screams spotlessness, here are some things that a professional cleaning service can provide and guarantee:

 

Carpet cleaning

This one’s an easy one. It’s easy to vacuum your carpets regularly and it’s also possible to buy or rent a steam cleaner to get out tougher stains. Sometimes, however, nothing can be done to remove tough, stubborn stains. And if you have pets or kids, you probably have more than your fair share of stubborn stains that need removing.

Professional carpet cleaners have the best equipment and treatments to get your carpet looking like new. You probably don’t realise all the grime and bacteria that collect in your carpet – grime and bacteria that can only be eliminated with stronger equipment that you just can’t rent or buy. Many companies also use low-water techniques that will have your carpets dry and ready for footfall in no time at all.

 

Upholstery

Upholstery is another tough cleaning task. No matter what type of household or business you have, your furniture can take a beating. Popcorn grease from that Netflix marathon, wine from the party, and the baby making a mess are all problems we deal with every day. Cleaning upholstery is not only difficult, but it’s frightening too. There’s always the fear that you’ll damage the fabric by scrubbing too hard, or using the wrong treatment.

Getting a professional to do it for you takes the fear away. Experts will know what detergents and brushes to use that won’t damage your furniture and leave it looking worse than it did before. Upholstered furniture, like carpet, retains bacteria, dander, dust, and pollen that are difficult to eliminate.

A professional will get your furniture cleaner and have you breathing healthier air than ever. In fact, certain medical conditions such as asthma can be made worse with all those dirt particles embedded in the carpet and furniture so you’ll be surprised how much of a difference it can make once you experience the difference in air quality.

 

Tile, Grout, and Stone

Tile, grout, and stone can be breeding grounds for bacteria and grime. You may be able to use a chemical cleaner and get these outsides to look shiny, but the way these surfaces can attract dirt and fungus and threaten the health of your family means that a spray cleaner just isn’t sufficient. Besides, no one likes to get down on their hands and knees to scrub away in the gaps between tiles.

Hiring a professional will prevent you from having to risk injury to your knees and back. Also, not only will they get the surface clean and shiny, but most professional cleaners will also be able to place a sealant over it to prevent bacteria and fungus from collecting in the future.

 

Walls

Walls are tough to clean and for that reason, we don’t always think of cleaning them unless we’re about to paint. Things don’t often spill on walls, but you’d be surprised at how grimy they can get. Kids can put their greasy hands on them, and general dust and dirt can collect on their surfaces. Cleaning walls is always tedious – filling buckets, or spraying the surfaces can be time-consuming too. Then you might have to climb up and down ladders to reach all the spots.

A professional cleaning company will do that work for you, and do it better. They can get your walls clean and brighter looking, and also provide protection against those pesky grease stains from little fingers.

 

Nooks and crannies

There are plenty of places in your home that you may not think of cleaning. The tops of your fan blades, your doorknobs, in your vents, around and behind appliances, and under your furniture are just some of these hidden crevices.

These are all places that can collect harmful dust, allergens, and bacteria. A professional can get to those spots, and clear them right out so that you don’t have to worry about reaching those hard to get to places.

 

Provides Reliability

Professional cleaners can work on your schedule whether it’s monthly, weekly, or even yearly. The great thing about that is you can set the schedule and forget about it. The schedule will ensure that the cleaning work is maintained to keep your house looking spic and span at all times.

Often, if we try to schedule these things ourselves, they can get delayed by things that happen in life. Illness, emergencies, or even last minute school projects can all derail the best intentions we might have for getting cleaning work finished.

 

Increases House Value

When it comes to selling your home (if that’s your intention), wouldn’t you like to get the best possible price for it and not lose out because you haven’t been bothered to clean your home regularly? To make sure that your house stays at its current value, it’s important to maintain a comprehensive cleaning schedule that covers the entire area.

And, if you want to be sure that buyers will love your home, hiring a professional cleaning company to perform that cleaning routine could even increase the value of your property. No one likes a dirty house – remember? Keep this in mind when weighing up the cost of hiring a pro.

 

Saves Time

Your time is valuable. Your health is valuable too. While it obviously will cost more to hire professionals than it will to buy products and do the work by yourself, the benefits are worth it. Hiring professionals will keep your family healthier while also allowing you more time in your day to spend with those you love – isn’t that worth it?
