Housekeepers are professional cleaners.
They know exactly how to clean a house from top to bottom.
And all this, in record time!

Always clean top down and from left to right .
This way you will always know where to start, but also whether you have already cleaned an area or not.
When you clean, divide the work between wet rooms (bathroom, toilet, kitchen ) and "dry" parts (everything else ).
Always start with wet rooms, as they are more difficult to clean and require more attention.
Put all your cleaning supplies in a storage basket that you can easily carry from room to room.
Put the following products in it:
- blue microfiber cloths
- white cloths for dry wiping
- multi-purpose cleanser (try this easy homemade recipe)
- glass cleaner (try this easy homemade recipe)
- WC gel (homemade recipe here)
- duster
- garbage bag
1. Put homemade toilet gel in the toilet bowl and let it work its magic.
2. Spray all-purpose cleaner on and around the sink and in the bathtub. Wipe from left to right.
3. Dust baseboards and furniture fronts.
4. Clean the toilet bowl with the push broom, then flush the toilet.
5. Sweep the floor and mop.
1. Fold your napkin upwards, widthwise, about a third from the top edge.
2. Fold the top edge down.
3. Fold the left part towards the center.
4. Fold the right part towards the center.
5. Fold the rectangle in half to form a square.
1. Change rags. Above all, do not use the same ones as those in the bathroom. Yuck!
2. Heat a bowl with water and white vinegar in the microwave for 3 minutes. Then wipe the inside. Click here to discover the trick.
3. Pour baking soda and white vinegar down the drain. Let it foam for 5 min. Click here to discover the trick.
4. Dust furniture fronts, wipe down countertops, sweep and mop.
These are the quickest parts to clean. So, do it fast and well!
1. Make the cobwebs.
2. Dust lamps, furniture, and frames — always from left to right!
3. Change the sheets (for the bedrooms) or fluff up the cushions (in the living room).
4. Dust the baseboards, then vacuum.
There is no quick way to dust in places where there are a lot of trinkets.
So it's better to clean these areas than when you do a big spring cleaning...
Or better yet, avoid buying trinkets altogether!
