  • Kitchen

    Timeliness is key in cleaning the most heavily used room in the house.
  • Radiator, baseboard (electric)

    For safety’s sake, cut power to these units before cleaning them.
  • Mat

    Hate dusting, sweeping, vacuuming and mopping so often? Try a set of these.
  • Sink

    Whether in the kitchen or bath, a sink’s material — not location — determines the cleaning method.
  • Toilet

    Regular, thorough cleanings will make this job much easier.
  • Laminate countertop

    Cleanup is a snap, but be careful to prevent surface damage.
  • Driveway

    Sweep and spray to remove dirt. Also, the right way to soak out oil stains.
  • Acoustical tile ceiling

    A ceiling that absorbs sound — plus a whole lot more.
  • Mold

    The term is interchangeable with “mildew.” However, mold can be very destructive to the home itself.
  • Refrigerator exterior

    Blessed are the short, for they don’t have to see what the top of the ‘fridge looks like.
  • Hot water extraction

    Carpet cleaning that’s highly effective at flushing out dirt.
  • Extraction cleaning

    Process in which a hot, water-based cleaning solution is injected into and extracted from the carpet nap, taking with it the loosened soil.
  • Trisodium phosphate (TSP)

    An old standby that is still useful for cleaning walls and other surfaces.
  • Knives

    Keep cutlery out of the dishwasher.
  • Mirror

    A clean mirror is a nice reflection on you!
  • Wicking

    An explanation of how dirt can re-appear on a (supposedly) clean carpet or sofa.
  • Ink spot

    Fast action can prevent spots from becoming permanent stains.
  • Electrical cord

    Simply cleaned but needs a regular safety check for worn, cracked, or frayed insulation.
  • Lampshade

    Cloth shades should be cleaned carefully with dry methods. Spot clean with wet methods only when absolutely necessary.
  • Fungicide

    Mildew and mold are fungi. Bleach, borax, and other common chemicals effectively fight outbreaks.
