Spring Cleaning

Once winter is over, millions of Americans rush to clean their home in preparation of the new season! The reasons for spring cleaning go far beyond the appearance of a clean home. Here’s just a few benefits of giving your home a deep clean.

  • It prevents insects and bugs from entering your home – The moisture that spring weather brings is an insect magnet for your home! Pests like spiders and cockroaches love to hide in tiny spaces, like window sills and inside cupboards. These areas provide water and food sources for attracting and sheltering these nasty pests. Getting your home professionally cleaned will help to eliminate them.
  • Increases your home’s value – Whether or not you’re selling your home, it’s always important to keep it in tip-top shape. Without proper cleaning and maintenance, your home will lose its value. Having your home thoroughly cleaned helps eliminate dust, mold, and mildew. It also keeps your carpets and hardwood floors in better condition, longer!
  • Gives you a healthier home – The dust and germs that exist in your home are harmful to your health! Did you know that your carpet has 200,000 bacteria per square inch?! That’s 4,000 times dirtier than the average toilet seat! Yikes! Getting your carpet cleaned by professionals who have the right tools will get rid of the bacteria.
  • Power washing removes pollen – Pollen levels are at their highest in spring! Anything you have outside—your car, patio furniture, etc., gets coated with yellow dust. To make matters worse, it causes people’s allergies to flare up. Having your home power washed will remove pollen from all your outdoor surfaces—leaving it clean and shiny! It also reduces the chance of allergies, since pollen won’t be entering your home. Another plus? Power washing prevents dangerous mold and mildew from growing on your home.
