It might be winter right now, but that doesn’t mean you can’t dig out the customary Marigolds for a good old spring clean.
Having a clean house is a year round undertaking, so getting into a routine is essential.
However, if you dread getting out the scrubbing brush, we’ve put together a list of the perfect methods to help your house feel fresher without any hassle.
- Use Zoflora for Disinfecting
Although Zoflora has been around for years, it was brought back into mainstream use by the cleaning influencer Mrs Hinch in recent years. Zoflora are known for using beautiful fragrances in their disinfectants, including scents like Midnight Blooms, Springtime and Linen Fresh.
For those with pets, Zoflora scents have been carefully chosen with the sensitivity of pets’ sense of smell in mind, meaning you can still have a beautifully smelling house without worrying about your furry friends.
You can buy Zoflora ready mixed with water in spray bottles, or purchase in concentrated form in bottles to mix into your mop bucket!
- Change Your Front Door
Your front door is one of the most used parts of your house, and a good quality uPVC door can be expected to last between 20-25 years if well looked after.
For this reason, it’s important to ensure that your front door is of a high quality to protect against break-ins, maintain your home insulation, and shield against adverse weather conditions. Companies like Oakwood Doors can help you find an excellent door for a very reasonable price, as a brand new door can help you give your house the spring makeover it deserves.
- Get into Every Nook and Cranny
It’s inevitable that spots get missed during the weekly clean, so part of the beauty of a spring clean is to get to those bits that we don’t always have time for in our busy lives.
Some common areas that may not need doing quite so often are skirting boards, extractor fans and exterior window sills. You may even forget to regularly clean frequently touched items like doorknobs and cupboard handles.
You’ll be amazed how much better you’ll feel after tackling all the tiny jobs!
- Throw Out your Unwanted Stuff
The new year is the perfect time to reassess your priorities and get rid of all the things that are no longer making you happy.
If you have some tired old furniture that could do with a bit of TLC, but maybe doesn’t fit with your current decor, you can easily donate to charities like the British Heart Foundation. You can arrange a free collection of furniture, or drop off bags of unwanted items into one of their high street shops.
Clearing the clutter will help you to refresh your house, and clear more space for the things that do fill your life with happiness.
