With the weather beginning to brighten up, there can’t be a better time to give your home a spring clean to keep it looking fresh.

Today, we offer up some cleaning tips and advice that can turn this chore into an easygoing activity.

Bathroom Refresh

Sunnier days are great for entertaining guests with a barbecue or dinner party. Revive your downstairs cloakroom or bathroom by cleaning the tiles, taps and sanitary ware. Cif Power Cream Bathroom is a great product to use; it easily removes water marks and limescale without damaging the surfaces and leaves gleaming results.

Sparking Kitchen

In the kitchen, empty the cupboards and wipe on the inside and outside of them. These areas aren’t as frequently cleaned and food residue and marks can be quite difficult to remove. Choose a solution that can shift tough stains but also has a directable nozzle for those hard-to-reach corners.

Clean Bins

The summer weather can leave areas of your house smelling musty. One area particularly affected are bins; they accumulate dirt and germs, which thrive in warmer conditions. To combat this, wipe down the inside and outside with a powerful bleach cleaning spray every time you empty them to keep them clean and fresh-smelling.

Fresh Home

Vacuum, dust and clean all surfaces throughout the house to make sure every room is spotless and clutter free. Using a spray with active shield technology covers surfaces with a protective film that can prevent further build-up. Leave a window open for a while to let in fresh air and add a vase of scented flowers so that your home is fragrant and inviting.

Get the Kids Involved

With the children’s summer holidays slowly approaching encourage your children to help out by setting them chores – get them to help clear away the dishes after a meal, turn putting toys away into something fun by challenging them to put them away quickly. Or for the older ones, changing bedding or folding towels and sheets together can be fun. Setting specific tasks for them encourages them to do it as well as they can whilst harnessing their energy productively.
