Planning

Deep cleaning your entire home is a huge task in its own right and there is nothing worse than having a whole house to clean and not knowing where to start. There is going to be a lot to do and with any big task planning is key. If you have a busy household, or are dividing up the workload, this can make it easier to keep track of what has been done, what needs doing and who is doing what – divide and conquer.

Dusting, Polishing & Vacuuming

Getting rid of any excess dust on surfaces, carpets, curtains or in any hidden corners can make cleaning easier. It can also save you from having to double up on a workload by dusting and polishing before you clean your carpet because you would not be putting dust back on the floor.

Carpets

The carpet may not be considered the heart of the home but it is the thing that gets put through its paces every day and although it may look like it, vacuuming is not enough to clean carpets. Vanish has a range of products that can effectively clean your carpet, remove pet hair and get rid of stains ensuring your carpet is ready for your guests arrival.

There may be a few ways that you want to tackle your carpet cleaning:

  • All over deep cleaning

For larger areas, Vanish Gold Carpet Care Powder is perfect for tackling larger areas, simply sprinkle on the dirty area, work in the powder, leave to dry and vacuum.  It will remove dirt, hair and odour, and leave your carpet fresh and soft (vs vacuuming alone).

  • Cleaning the high traffic areas

It is inevitable that certain areas in your house are more ‘lived-in’ than others, this is more noticeable on carpet in hallways, around doors and leading upstairs.

Sofas

Stains on a sofa can be daunting, especially if you are not sure what the stain is or how it got there in the first place, but they are not impossible to remove. Vanish is effective in removing stains on upholstery. Sofas are key when it comes to having family and friends over so it is important to have them looking their best so you and your guests can be comfortable at all times.
