Help Cleaning!?

Question

I need advice on cleaning a two-bedroom apartment with a kitchen and a full bathroom. I also need advice on cleaning a seperate, medium sized bedroom

Answer 1

BATHROOM

* Start with the sink. With flushable wipe in hand, clean the sink (the room’s focal point) and its fixtures, concentrating on the grime-friendly seams where the two meet.

* Speed-sanitize. Grab another towelette to clean the edge of the bathtub, the toilet seat, and the toilet exterior. Finish up by shining the mirror with glass cleaner and a cloth.

* Deep-clean the toilet. Squirt bowl cleaner around the inside edge and let it sit for a few minutes. While it’s soaking, use a wipe or a fresh cloth and all-purpose cleaner to clean the seat around its base and hinges. Return to the bowl and give stubborn rings a scrubbing with a sponge or a brush.

* Damp-mop the floor. Use a wet mop with a pivoting head to get into awkward corners between the sink, the toilet, and the tub.

* Scrub down the shower and the tub. Spray the shower walls and the tub with all-purpose cleaner. Scrub from the top down so the tub floor gets the full benefit of a soaking to dissolve buildup.

KITCHEN

* Clean countertops and the sink. Spray disinfectant in the sink and let it soak. “Otherwise the product won’t have time to kill all the bacteria and viruses you’re trying to remove,” Meanwhile, spritz the counters with disinfectant. Then scrub the sink with a sponge, rinse well, and dry. Return to the counters and wipe dry with a fresh cotton or microfiber cloth.

* Sweep or dry-mop the floor. Make a pass using an electrostatic mop (like those from Swiffer) or cloth. This will pick up dirt and hair and make wet-mopping more efficient.

* Clean the refrigerator handle. It takes only seconds to wipe down this bacteria-friendly spot with disinfectant.

* Wet-mop the floor. A few spritzes of an all-purpose cleaner and a damp microfiber mop will do the trick. “You can finish the kitchen floor in minutes — with no dirty water bucket,”

* Wipe down appliances. Clean the surfaces of the gadgets.

* Wash the cabinet fronts. Wipe from top to bottom with a soft sponge and a solution of warm water and dish soap. If the cabinets are wood, use a wood cleanser.

* Deep-clean appliances. To freshen the refrigerator’s interior, clean it with a solution of 3 tablespoons baking soda and 4 cups warm water. No self-cleaning oven? Wipe down the inside with an all-purpose cleanser. Use a plastic scraper (or an old credit card) to get bits of food off the racks and drip pan.

* Dust and degrime inside and out. Remove crumbs from inside cabinets with a vacuum attachment or a damp cloth.

Answer 2

What do you mean you need advice on cleaning your apartment? Do you need a list of cleaning supplies? Brands? Step-by-step instructions on exactly how to clean?

Even tho I'm not sure what you're looking for, I can tell you this. I start from the highest point and work my way down. For example, I start by dusting/Windexing pictures hanging on the wall, then dust the furniture, then change the sheets on the bed, then vacuum. My logic in doing it this way? I start high and work down so the dust/debris falls to the floor and can be vacuumed or swept/mopped up.

As for cleaning a bathroom, I squirt stuff in the toilet so it can stand while I clean. I start with the sink, do the counter, clean the mirrors, wipe down all the stuff that goes on the bathroom counter as I put it back, then clean the inside of the toilet (seat and rim), clean the inside of the bowl, the outside of the toilet, sweep/mop the floor. When I squirt the toilet bowl cleaner in at the beginning, I remove the toilet lid cover and the rug(s) so I can wash them. Once the floor is dry (or the rugs/toilet lid cover are dry), I replace those last.

I hope that helps. I don't know exactly what you're asking so it's the best I can do. :)
