Autumn Cleaning: Preparing your home for cosy season
As the days get shorter and the leaves begin to fall, our homes transition from sun-filled summer spaces to cosy autumn retreats. This change in season is the perfect time to give your home a thorough clean, creating a healthy and inviting sanctuary for the months ahead. But with so much to do, where do you even start?
At CH Services, we know that an autumn deep clean is about more than just tidying up; it's about preparing your living space for the cold weather and creating a haven for you and your family. We've put together some essential autumn cleaning tips to help you get your home ready for the season. If you're based in or around Chester, we’re here to help you get the job done right.
Step 1: Tackle the entrance
With colder, wetter weather on the way, your entryway is about to see a lot of foot traffic. Start by giving this area a deep clean. Wash down baseboards and walls to remove scuff marks, and thoroughly scrub or vacuum your doormats. For hard floors, a professional clean can strip away ground-in dirt and grime, while a deep carpet clean will remove a summer's worth of dust and allergens. This makes a huge difference in keeping your home tidy throughout the autumn.
Step 2: Deep clean your soft furnishings
Autumn is the season for blankets, throws, and heavier curtains. Before you get them out, give them a refresh. Wash all your seasonal bedding, blankets, and pillow covers. For items that can’t be easily washed at home, like heavy curtains or upholstered furniture, consider a professional service. We can remove dust, dirt, and allergens, ensuring your cosy items are truly clean and fresh. This is a key step for creating a healthy environment, especially for those with allergies.
Step 3: Let the light in
The days are getting darker, so it's important to maximise the natural light you have. Give your windows a complete top-to-bottom clean. Wash the frames, glass, and sills to remove any built-up dirt and grime. A clean window can make a surprising difference in brightening a room and will help your space feel more open and airy, even on the gloomiest of days.
Step 4: Clean the areas you usually miss
Your autumn clean is the perfect time to get to those spots you often overlook. Wipe down radiators and clean out your vents and air filters, which can get clogged with dust. Use a vacuum hose to get behind and underneath furniture. Cleaning these areas improves air quality and helps your heating system run more efficiently in the winter, saving you money on energy bills.
