Prescott Maid to Order, discusses housekeeping help for aging adults in Prescott

Prescott Maid to Order can customize Prescott home cleaning services to fit your needs.
As we age, we often become less organized than in the past and tend to let things go. The house of a loved one who has been a meticulous house cleaner may start to look dusty and disheveled. Prescott Maid to Order talks about the housekeeping help that’s needed for aging adults in Prescott.

Difficulty managing basic housekeeping tasks becomes common with aging and could be a sign your loved one is having issues such as arthritis pain or a fear of falling. During your next visit to your loved one’s home, consider offering help with the following housekeeping tasks that tend to be difficult for seniors:

  • Cleaning up after meals. Most of us don’t especially enjoy cleaning up after we eat. Seniors may have good reason for leaving dirty dishes in the sink. Heavy pots and pans may be difficult for your loved one to wash. It may even be difficult for your loved one to rinse and put the dishes in the dishwasher. You might consider hiring a professional caregiver to help your loved one clean up after meals each day.
  • Cleaning the floors. Mopping and vacuuming take up a quite a bit of energy. Yet seniors rely on clean floors to help prevent falls. Also, regular floor cleanings can reduce allergens and germs that contribute to illness. Many seniors fear falling and fail to keep the floor clean because of balance and mobility issues.
  • Doing the laundry. Fresh linens are important for seniors. They are especially critical for those with health conditions that cause them to sometimes soil their clothing and bedding. However, lifting heavy baskets of laundry and getting the linens and clothes in and out of the washer and dryer may be quite demanding for your loved one. Consider hiring someone who can manage these tasks while helping your loved one stay independent.
  • Cleaning the bathroom. Whether your loved one has a walk-in bathtub or a shower, cleaning the bathroom requires balance, stamina and strength. Reaching every nook and cranny is nearly impossible. Those with respiratory issues may be extra sensitive the heavy fumes found in household cleaners such as bleach.

If you have loved ones that are finding it increasingly difficult to keep up with daily house cleaning, trust Prescott Maid to Order to expertly handle some of these tasks in your loved one’s Prescott home. We are bonded and insured, and you can relax knowing that all is in good hands. Call us for a free estimate on residential cleaning, house sitting, or pet sitting at 928-899-8518.

Prescott Maid to Order shares the benefits of a house sitter for your Prescott home

Prescott Maid to Order can restore the luster to your Prescott home with professional home cleaning.
Have you ever considered hiring a house sitter but have been reluctant to do it? There are a number of benefits to having a professional house sitter in your Prescott home, especially if you're on vacation or traveling for work. Prescott Maid to Order outlines five key advantages to hiring a house sitter.

1. If you're going to be away for an extended period of time, it may make a difference with your insurance coverage. Many homeowners don't realize that after a specific period of time, normally about 30 days, an unoccupied home may not be covered by your insurance provider, so a primary benefit of a house sitter ensures that your house remains covered no matter how long you need to be away.

2. Having a house sitter not only ensures you remain covered by your insurance policy, but just by being there, a house sitter actually reduces the chances of your home being robbed or vandalized because it’s empty.

3. While you can ask neighbors or friends to check in on your beloved pets, it is not unusual for even the most relaxed dog or cat to feel the stress of being left alone for an extended period of time. Some pets even develop separation anxiety. Having a house sitter can help to make pets feel safe and secure until you return.

4. If you have a garden or a landscaped property, a house sitter can help water and pick up while you're away. If you're away for a lengthy period of time, you can be assured that your beautiful garden won't be neglected.

5. Having a house sitter staying in your home to answer the door to visitors, take messages or packages can give you the biggest advantage of all, the peace of mind that things are being handled during your absence.

If you're planning to be away and want peace of mind during your absence, call Prescott Maid to Order to schedule a house sitter to look after your Prescott home. We are bonded and insured, and you can relax knowing that your home is in good hands. For an estimate on residential cleaning, house sitting, or pet sitting, call us today at 928-899-8518.

Prescott Maid to Order: How to clean and care for the floors in your Prescott home

Prescott Maid to Order can bring a sparkle and shine to your Prescott home with professional home cleaning services.
Make your floors look like new again with these simple techniques for cleaning tile and  hardwood floors. Prescott Maid to Order provides tips on how to clean and care for the floors in your Prescott home.

Ceramic tile floors. 
These can be cleaned easily with nothing but warm water, but be sure to sweep or vacuum first to remove any loose soil or grit. Never use a sponge mop to clean ceramic tile floors. It will pull the dirt right into the grout tracks. This makes the floor more difficult to clean. If you have really dirty grout, use a brush.

Hardwood floors.

This may seem unusual, but the results are fantastic! Use boiling water and two teabags to clean hardwood floors. The tannic acid in tea creates a beautiful shine for hardwood floors. Let two tea bags steep in the boiling water for a few minutes. Pour the tea into a bucket. Take a soft cloth and wring it out in the tea. The cloth merely needs to be damp, not soaked. This will enable the floor to dry quickly. Wash the floor and be ready to be amazed by the sheen.

There may be scratches that stand out after cleaning the hardwood floor; simply take a crayon the color of the floor and rub it on the scratch to fill the gap. Turn a blow dryer on high, heat the area where the crayon was applied and buff it with a soft cloth.

For expert floor cleaning in your Prescott home, trust Prescott Maid to Order to bring back the sparkle, and provide you with floor care tips to make that clean look last. Whether you need a special cleaning for the holidays or anytime, Prescott Maid to Order can help keep your Prescott home clean and beautiful year ‘round. Call us today for a free estimate at 928-899-8518. For more information visit us at http://www.prescottmaidtoorder.com.

Since your guests will notice this area first, keeping the foyer clean will guarantee your home makes the best first impression.

3. The powder room - Scrub it till it shines. Period.

4. Creating a pleasing aroma around the house - A freshly brewed pot of delicious coffee or a smattering of cinnamon can go a long way to giving your home an inviting aroma. 

5. Treat your garbage disposal with some love - Help cut down on unpleasant odors, simply chop a whole lemon, including the rind, and feed it to your disposal. Hint: Toss in a few ice cubes to help sharpen the blades.

6. Keep it simple and consider one soap for all your needs - Castile soap can be used as a laundry detergent, floor cleaner and even a shampoo.

7. Seeing things clearly - Keep your windows sparkling clean with an affordable and quick mixture of vinegar, water and a simple spray bottle. Use a microfiber cloth to wipe down your windows leaving them streak-free.

8. Holiday cooking cleanups -
No matter how meticulous you are, stove tops and ovens can't help but get dirty. Make a simple cleaning solution of baking soda and water to scrub off baked-on goo.

Prescott Maid to Order shares about safe, natural cleaning products for your Prescott home

Prescott Maid to Order can help keep your Prescott home clean and toxin free.
There are many cleaning products on the market, and it’s difficult to tell which are the best and safest to use in your Prescott home. Prescott Maid to Order understands our clients’ concerns about harmful toxins and we have found an abundance of cleaning products that are both natural and highly effective, keeping you and your home safe! Here are some tips that include ways to clean your home safely, using natural products: 
  • Baking soda is safe for use and is non-toxic, making it a great cleaning and deodorizing product to keep in your arsenal.
  • Vinegar can serve as a cheap and effective disinfectant. It’s environmentally friendly and safe for kids and pets!
  • Lemon has just the right acidity which makes it perfect for cleaning tough messes and for erasing unsavory odors.
Here are a few good tips for using these natural products:
  • To clean your microwave: In a microwave-safe container, mix one-half cup of water and one-half cup of distilled white vinegar. Let this mixture reach a rolling boil in the microwave. This both deodorizes the oven and loosens stubborn foods. Use a cloth or sponge to clean away the substances.
  • To clean your drains: Pour one cup of baking soda down your drain, then one cup of distilled white vinegar, heated. Wait about five minutes before running hot water to clear. This will clean your drains and remove unpleasant odors.
  • To remove offensive garbage odors: Place one-half cup baking soda at the bottom of your outdoor garbage bins to prevent bacteria, mold, and mildew.
Prescott Maid to Order hopes these tips for safe, natural cleaning products have been helpful. If you want a pristine home for your family and friends but don't have time to clean, call Prescott Maid to Order to arrange a free consultation for cleaning services for your Prescott home. Call us at 928-899-8518 or visit http://www.prescottmaidtoorder.com for more information.

Prescott Maid to Order discusses what to clean before you move into your new Prescott home

Get your new house cleaned before moving in, contact Prescott Maid to Order.
It is always fun to move into a new house or apartment. But before you get started on the fun parts of moving to a new place, you’ll need to take care of business. Prescott Maid to Order discusses some cleaning tasks you should tackle before moving into your new Prescott home.

Whether you’re renting or buying, move in cleaning (or pre-move in cleaning, if you have a window of time to manage it) is a necessity. Those who lived there before you, no matter how well-intentioned, inevitably left behind some dirt, grime, and dust that you’ll want to take care of before you settle in. Here are some tips:

Clean the fridge first. If you are moving in after someone has moved out, there are some things you can put off while you get everything cleaned. The place you store your perishable food isn’t one of them. Before doing anything else, sanitize your new fridge. Because it’s clear of any food, it shouldn’t take more than a half-hour. Take out the shelves and drawers. Clean them with soap and warm water. For the inside of the fridge, make a solution of equal parts water and white vinegar. Use a clean cloth to scrub down all surfaces. Make sure shelves are completely dry, and then return them to the fridge. Repeat these steps with the freezer.

Clean high before you clean low
. Dust isn’t limited to countertops and floors. Overhead lighting fixtures, ceiling fans, shelving, and other features close to the ceiling are just as prone to getting grimy, but they don’t get cleaned as often. Since cleaning these high up features will lead to the area below them getting sprinkled with the dust, start at the top and then work your way down in every room.

Bathroom cleaning. Bathroom cleaning is as much about disinfecting as it is about cleaning. Use a good dish soap and a sponge for the initial scrub down. Follow with an antibacterial spray to get rid of any lingering germs.

Prescott Maid to Order hopes this discussion of what to clean before you move into your new home has been helpful to you. Prescott Maid to Order can not only clean your Prescott home but free up your time and energy to get other things done in the meantime.

Prescott Maid to Order can help clean up the falling leaves on your Prescott home's landscape

Prescott Maid to Order can professionally clean the inside of your Prescott home, and spruce up your lawn too.
Landscaping professionals suggest that you clean up leaves in your yard in the fall, rather than waiting until spring arrives. Prescott Maid to Order can help clean up the falling leaves on your Prescott home's landscape.

Here are some suggested time intervals for cleaning:

  • Once at the end of October
  • Once somewhere near Thanksgiving Day
  • Once at the beginning of the New Year

Leaf cleaning and removal at the above intervals should keep your lawn from getting overrun. Experts say it is important to not allow leaves collect on the ground for too long.

Excess leaves on the lawn block sunlight. This reduces water evaporation and can cause a host of problems including fungus, mold and disease. These things alone can destroy a lawn within a couple of years, even if it's cleaned up every spring.

A well maintained, healthy lawn can take a hit and bounce back, but a stressed lawn left with leaves sitting for long periods of time can be sent over the edge. Allowing leaves to sit can result in areas where leaves retain moisture. Wet, decomposing leaves can be a breeding ground for mosquitoes. Also some plant diseases can get cycled back into plants as the leaves decompose into the soil at the base of the plant.

Prescott Maid to Order can help keep your Prescott home’s landscape spruced up with leaf cleaning this fall. For a free quote, call us at 928-899-8518, or visit us at http://www.prescottmaidtoorder.com for more information.

Prescott Maid to Order talks about window cleaning after the rain for your Prescott home

Prescott Maid to Order can handle all the cleaning needs for your Prescott home including window cleaning, carpet cleaning, and much more!
It may seem like it should, but rain doesn't clean windows. Then again rain also doesn't make them dirty. The monsoon season in Prescott is officially over, and Prescott Maid to Order reminds us that we may still have a few days of rain left before the winter comes in. If your windows need cleaning, don't let the chance of rain stop you. It's the dust and dirt that are responsible for the lackluster views you may be seeing out of your windows.

WHAT: Dust, pollen, and bird droppings are the major reasons that your home's windows get dirty. If your windows haven't been cleaned in a while, the rainwater will just add to the mix leaving your windows worse off than they already were. If your windows are properly cleaned now, even if it rains again it will not harm your newly-cleaned windows.

WHEN: To most window cleaners, cleaning windows during the rainy season (and sometimes even in the rain) is not an issue. If the frames are cleaned at the same time, the rain will simply run off. The only time there could be a problem is if the frames aren't clean. Then the rain will find the dirt and together they will run off onto your windows making a mess.

WHY: Letting your windows go too long without a proper cleaning can lead to stains and films that are difficult to remove and end up costing more to clean. Except for hazardous storms, don't let rain stop you from getting your house ready for the holiday season with clean, sparkling windows. And not just for the holidays - for us to enjoy the beautiful views we have year round.

Are the views from your Prescott home a little dimmer than they used to be? With the rainy season behind us, it’s time to call Prescott Maid to Order for a free window cleaning quote. Call us at 928-899-8518 or visit us at http://www.prescottmaidtoorder.com for more information.

Prescott Maid to Order can help get your Prescott home ready for sale

Prescott Maid to Order, professional home cleaners in Prescott, can make your home more attractive to buyers with a thorough cleaning.
When selling a house, putting the house in tip-top shape is a must.  Prescott Maid to Order can help get your Prescott home ready for sale.

Selling a house is a major experience in anyone’s life. When you have lived in a home for a long time, it is impossible to think of everything a buyer will see and look for when they walk into your home. It is hard to be objective. That’s why it is best to hire a professional house cleaning service to make your home appealing to the potential buyer.

Before you put your house on the market

Examine things carefully with your real estate agent. Do everything possible to enhance the appeal of your home. It is possible that an item that you think may need replacing may just need a heavy-duty cleaning.

Before a house showing/open house

Using a cleaning service regularly while your home is on the market will be to your advantage.  But if your budget won’t allow that, it is of the utmost importance that you use a cleaning service just before your open houses.

Moving out cleaning service

Most cleaning companies offer a “move-out” cleaning service. After a home is empty, there are many hidden areas that suddenly become obvious. The time it would take you to clean these areas would put you under a lot of pressure. You will have your hands full with many other demands. It takes a lot of time and energy to move a family to a new home. You owe it to yourself to hire a good cleaning service.

Prescott Maid to Order can help reduce stress and make your Prescott home more attractive to buyers with a thorough professional cleaning. Call Prescott Maid to Order to arrange a free consultation. Call us at 928-899-8518 or visit us at http://www.prescottmaidtoorder.com for more information.

Prescott Maid to Order gives fall cleaning tips for your Prescott home

Prescott Maid to Order can get your Prescott home clean and ready for the holidays with one-time or regular home cleaning services.
Fall is almost here! You’ll want to take advantage of these cooler weekends to get your Prescott home clean and ready for winter. Prescott Maid to Order offers a few suggestions to help you transition into the colder weather.

Clean the whole house

Clean each room from top to bottom. Dust everything: walls, ceilings, baseboards, ceiling fans, blinds, etc. It's not unusual for dust to collect throughout the summer. Use a vacuum to remove the dust from fabrics like the drapes and upholstery.

Warm up the beds
Newer mattresses generally don't get flipped over but they should be rotated every season. Take out your heavier winter bed linens, blankets and comforters and give them a wash and dry to make them like new again. Cool fall nights in a wonderful, freshly cleaned, warm winter bed are the best!
   
Organize the closets
Now's a great time to go through all the closets to reduce, reuse, and recycle clothes and shoes that no longer fit, and donate those out of style accessories to a good cause. If you don't have room to exchange your summer clothes for warm winter ones, then rearrange your closet with the summer clothes to one side so that they're not in the way. And while you're in the closet look around for other space-robbing items that could be better used by someone else.

Wash the windows
We love clean windows. If the dust, rain, and that mysterious film are hindering your view, go through the entire house and wash all the windows – inside and out. You'll want to get this done before the winter weather makes it difficult. Don't forget to wash the screens while you're at it.

Get the kitchen ready for guests
No family making a big Thanksgiving dinner can keep people out of the kitchen. One of the joys of fall holidays are the guests we entertain. Be ready to relax by getting the hard work done first. Thoroughly deep clean all of the appliances including the small countertop appliances. Don't forget to neatly organize your dish, food, and pots and pans cabinets and drawers so that you can effortlessly find everything you want and need.

Keep the air healthy
Cold weather means closed windows, so consider using VOC-free or low-VOC cleaners to protect you and your family. The EPA says that indoor environments are two to five times more polluted than the air outside. If you can open your windows during the warmest part of the day, you should.

Are you already busy with other things including back to school events and holiday planning? If you want a pristine home for your family and friends but don't have time to clean, call Prescott Maid to Order to arrange a free consultation.

These are qualities that are so important that they will affect the baby's entire life. Being both a new mom and housekeeper, shopper, and cook cannot help but affect your energy and your mood. Being exhausted, moody, emotional, and stressed are hardly comforting to your baby. 

New moms also need to take time to heal from delivery or face potential long-term medical issues. It's recommended that new moms don't pick up anything heavier than the baby, and also recommended that they avoid physically demanding work, which includes housecleaning.  From a strictly medical perspective, it is important to get some help with the cleaning for at least six months after giving birth.

After the first few months, you can determine whether you want to continue with a professional cleaning service or get back to managing all the duties again by yourself. In the meantime, not only will you be taking care of yourself physically and mentally, bonding with and strengthening your newborn, but you might also gain some good tips on how the professionals clean a house, making your return to housekeeping duties a little easier.

If you're expecting or have a newborn at home and would like to spend more time with your new baby, we can help. Keep your Prescott home clean and inviting by calling Prescott Maid to Order today at 928-899-8518 or visit us at http://www.prescottmaidtoorder.com.

Prescott Maid to Order discusses how often to have professional house cleaning in your Prescott home

Prescott Maid to Order can professionally clean your Prescott home to fit your schedule of frequency.
Having your home clean and confidently presentable is what many aspire to. Hiring a housekeeper could be the perfect solution, but how often do you need one? Prescott Maid to Order offers helpful guidelines for how frequently to have your Prescott home professionally cleaned.

A few things to consider are: what areas of your home get the dirtiest, how often do those areas need to be cleaned and what is your family's budget. By making a cleaning checklist, you can identify where you need help the most and where you spend the most time cleaning.

Daily Schedule
A daily housekeeper works well for new parents who are taking care of an infant, busy working parents and the elderly who need help with daily chores. Housekeepers can quickly stay on top the laundry, dusting, vacuuming, dishwashing and basic cleaning.

Weekly or Bi-Monthly
Having a housekeeper come in once a week or every other week is a good option for any sized family who wants to ensure that their home is cleaned on a regular basis. A weekly or bi-monthly schedule will mean that housekeepers need more time to get the job done than if they were scheduled daily.

Monthly
Every home can use a thorough monthly cleaning. Having monthly-scheduled housecleaners is a great way to tackle the more neglected cleaning projects like the oven, the fridge or closets. Cleaning services that are scheduled once-a-month will take longer than the more frequently scheduled services, but they can be customized to fit the needs of each household.

Occasionally
The holidays aren't stressful enough. Menus, grocery shopping, cooking and decorating are more than enough to keep the best of us busy. But that doesn't keep us from wanting our homes to pass the 'white-glove' test. Scheduling housecleaners to help you prepare your home for friends and family is a smart choice during the holidays or for special events.

No matter how often your Prescott home needs professional cleaning, the pros at Prescott Maid to Order are ready to work with your schedule. For a free estimate, call us today at 928-899-8518 or learn more about our services at http://www.prescottmaidtoorder.com.

Prescott Maid to Order shares how to keep your Prescott home clean during the monsoon

Call on Prescott Maid to Order to keep your Prescott home clean during the monsoon and rainy season.
The monsoon season is here! Have you just mopped your floor and had mud tracked in right afterward? Have you wiped your kitchen table only to find wet backpacks and dripping umbrellas on it? Prescott Maid to Order offers some tips on how to keep your Prescott home clean during the monsoon and keep relatively sane.

  • Limit wet shoes to the entryway. This will help to simplify clean-up at the end of the day and keep it confined to one area.
  • Get everyone out of wet and dirty clothes immediately. Damp spots on your upholstery quickly turn to catch spots for surface dirt.
  • Place a hamper in every bedroom and bathroom of your home. Clothes transfer water and dirt onto whatever they contact, even when thrown onto the floor. The “hamper habit” helps to minimize cleaning during the monsoon season.
  • Designate an area for your family to store their bags, backpacks and purses, even when the climate is dry. Good habits make for easy cleaning. Make sure they follow the rules and use a space that is easy to clean. A coat rack can double as a bag rack.
  • Limit wet pets to an easily cleaned area, for example, where the shoes are stored. Give them a toy to keep them occupied and a comfortable area in which to nap. You don’t want your lovely sofa to smell like a wet dog!
  • Because people tend to stay in on a rainy day, limit the build-up of clutter. Always stick to this simple rule: “When you are done with it, clean it up!”

Prescott Maid to Order reminds you that a few simple tips will help you keep your Prescott home clean during the monsoon season. No matter what season we are in, if you want your home professionally cleaned, call Prescott Maid to Order at 928-899-8518 for a free estimate.

Prescott Maid to Order offers window cleaning tips to showcase your beautiful Prescott views

Prescott Maid to Order can keep your Prescott windows and home sparkling clean so you can enjoy the view!
We are fortunate to live in an area where there are so many beautiful views. Whether your view is a mountain, pine trees, or anything in between, Prescott has many bright, sunny days to enjoy the scenery. Prescott Maid to Order offers window cleaning tips so that you can enjoy more of your view of Prescott.

One tip is to clean your windows on cloudy days, early in the morning or on the shady side of your home to prevent the window cleaning products from drying quickly and causing difficult to remove streaks.

You will want to have a few essential window cleaning supplies already on hand:
  • Soft-bristle brush for removing cobwebs from outside windows
  • Sponge for applying cleaning solution
  • High-quality squeegee for drying
  • Microfiber cloth for polishing
  • Easy-to-carry bucket
  • Cleaning solution (dishwashing liquid or white vinegar)
  • Towel (for drying frames and sills that may get wet)
  • Ladder (if necessary)
  • Rubber gloves
Dripping water or cleaner onto a dusty sill is going to make a mess. Start your window cleaning by cleaning the sill and sash before you clean the glass to make any drips a quick wipe up.

If your windows are extra dirty, use plenty of your favorite cleaner to break down the dirt and grime so that you can thoroughly wipe it away. Applying too little cleaner will just make your work harder.

There was a time when people thought using newspaper was the best way to dry windows. Times have changed and so have newspapers. Instead, use washable, absorbent, lint-free microfiber cloths to leave your windows streak-free and shiny. Use cloths that have not been washed or dried with fabric softener since it can leave a residue on your windows.

If you have difficult to reach windows because you're on a slope or have a multi-story home, you should call a professional window cleaner.

Working on a ladder can be dangerous, and professional window cleaners like Prescott Maid to Order have the right equipment, the know-how and skill to get every inch of even the most hard-to-reach windows glistening. No matter where your home is located or how big or small it is, if you would rather enjoy bright and sunny days than clean the windows of your Prescott home, call Prescott Maid to Order at 928-899-8518 to give you a free estimate.

Prescott Maid to Order shares back-to-school cleaning tips for your Prescott home

Prescott Maid to Order offers back to school cleaning tips and cleaning services for your Prescott home.
Before you know it, your kids will be starting back to school, and that means it's a great time to get your Prescott home in tip-top shape. Before you start, Prescott Maid to Order would like to share some simple cleaning tips and solutions that will give your home an A+ grade.

Soak it first
Who needs elbow grease when a little bit of time, water, dish soap and lemon juice will work? Soak your dishes for just 30 minutes before you load them into your dishwasher.

Have fun
Cleaning doesn't need to be miserable. Pull down the blinds, put on the music and dance like you have no neighbors. Before you realize it, your house will be beautiful and you may have burned a few calories in the process.

Have a closet for the kids’ school gear
We all know the moment the kids get home from school, the backpacks, coats, and shoes go flying. Having a specific place for them to toss their gear will help keep your home neat and tidy every day.

Clean out the fridge weekly
Keep your fridge up to date and ready for school lunches. Go through your fridge once a week to clean out what didn't make it, and save yourself extra trips to the grocery store by making a list of what you need to replace.

Get the equipment you'll use
If you don't vacuum or mop regularly because they are too heavy or ineffective, replace them with products you will use. Smart companies are introducing innovative designs all the time.

Dust is not your friend
If it has an air filter, clean it or replace it. Replace every air filter whether it's in a furnace, a vacuum, an air purifier, or a wall-mounted mini-split. Clean air filters mean cleaner air which can reduce allergies and help keep your family healthy.

Use microfiber cloths

Microfiber cloths collect more dust and leave surfaces cleaner longer. By holding more dust, they keep it from going into the air and settling back onto your finished work.

These are just a few simple ways to get your Prescott home sparkling clean while your kids are busy at school. But if you can think of other things you'd much rather be doing, give Prescott Maid to Order a call today at 928-899-8518 to get a quote or schedule an appointment. We can customize a cleaning schedule to fit your needs. Learn more about us at http://www.prescottmaidtoorder.com.

Prescott Maid to Order can help Prescott homeowners clean out the garage

For help getting all the junk out of the garage, call Prescott Maid to Order in Prescott
Are you one of the many people who have a garage at your Prescott home, but there is no room to park your vehicle in it? The garage seems to be a catch-all for everything that we don’t know what to do with. It can be overwhelming to consider going in and cleaning out all the things you’ve collected. If this sounds like you, you may be a candidate for a garage clean-out by Prescott Maid to Order.

Benefits: One of the benefits of having your garage cleaned by a professional home cleaning service is the time savings. We’ve all heard that time is money, and you have better things to do with your time - otherwise you would have already cleaned out the garage! You may have to sort through and organize if there are things you don’t want removed, or have your cleaning service guide you on what to keep.

Aging Parents: If you’re dealing with aging parents who have a lifetime of accumulation in their garage, consider hiring a professional cleaning service. That way you have more time - and energy - to spend with your loved ones while still getting rid of the clutter.

Junk Hauling: The question of what to do with all that you’re taking out of the garage points again to hiring professionals to clean out the garage. They can haul away junk leaving your garage clean and ready for your vehicle.

Garage Sale: If your junk isn’t really junk, you may be able to sell your items and make a little money. But again, the time you would spend manning a garage sale or posting items online might not outweigh the value of the items. You have to decide if it’s worth your time.

It’s important to do something about your garage, otherwise you may find that mice have moved into your Prescott home and made it their home. If you’re ready to get started on your garage clean-out and would like an estimate, contact Prescott Maid to Order at 928-899-8518.

Keep your Prescott home sparkling clean with Prescott Maid to Order professional home cleaning
Busy schedules are the norm these days, and house cleaning seems to be what suffers the most. As much as we all want a clean home, not everyone can spend the time it takes to thoroughly clean to their high standards. Prescott Maid to Order believes you deserve a professional cleaning service to clean your home in Prescott.

While many people believe that a cleaning service is only for the rich and famous, that is certainly not the case. Everyday people with jobs and average salaries often hire cleaning services to weekly or bi-weekly cleaning.

People who clean their own homes tend to miss some of the dirty surfaces because they spot clean as needed. A professional cleaning service company knows how to efficiently clean the home, and can do as much or as little as required.

When your home is organized and clean, you will naturally be more relaxed. And relaxation after a busy day at work is priceless!

Prescott Maid to Order offers a number of cleaning services to help relieve your stress and give you more time with your family.

Prescott Maid to Order, your professional home cleaner in Prescott, suggests things to do before going on vacation

For professional home cleaning in Prescott, call Prescott Maid to Order
You’ve got your tickets in hand. You’ve been looking forward to this vacation for so long! We know how hard it is to be organized before vacation – family suitcases to pack, keys to leave for the neighbor, mail to take care of…but the “let’s hit the road” mentality often results in a jaw-dropping return to a home you can hardly recognize. So before you hit the road, Prescott Maid to Order has created a checklist to help you enjoy your summer getaway and return to a home in Prescott that is fresh and welcoming.

Kitchen
Clean out the fridge:
No one wants to come home to last week’s leftovers – think, “Will I want to eat this in a week?” If the answer is no – throw!
Coffee pot: Discard any used coffee filters or coffee grounds. After rinsing out the coffee pot and filter holder, let the machine breathe by opening the lid and flipping the coffee pot upside down on a towel.
Drains & Disposal: Just because you can’t see the food, doesn’t mean it’s not there. Turn on the faucet and run the disposal to be sure any remnants have passed through. Run lemon wedges through the disposal to create a pleasant aroma.
Counters & Floors: Run a paper towel sprayed with an all-purpose cleaner over the counters to wipe away any last minute spills.
Trash & Bins: Take all trash out of the house and put outside.
Sink & Dishwasher: Run the dishwasher and unload.

Bathroom

Toilet: If your toilet is looking less than shiny already, take a minute to spruce it up.
Leave the toilet seat up – when the air is turned off, moisture will build toilet rings faster and harbor mold faster than you can say, “Gross!”
Shower Curtain: Pull the shower curtain straight. Pushing it to the side encourages mold to build in crevices that won’t dry properly.

Bedroom
Make the bed: If you are really on a roll, put on clean bed sheets.

It’s easy to neglect nagging details when the sea or mountains or forest or a family reunion calls your name, but nobody wants to come home to a smelly, messy house. Organize the entrance table before you go to avoid coming home to clutter. If someone is watching your home, make sure they have a designated basket or bin for the mail. The little things go a long way.

And if you need to have your Prescott house cleaned before you get home, just call Prescott Maid to Order and schedule them to clean before you get back from vacation. For questions or to schedule an appointment, just call 928-899-8518. To learn more about our services, please visit our website at http://www.prescottmaidtoorder.com.

Prescott Maid To Order explains windy days in Prescott equals more dust in the home

Prescott Maid To Order discusses windy dusty Prescott daysOne thing that never changes in Prescott are the windy days that bring in summertime. Dust settles everywhere in the home, too. Dust in the home is not only unsightly, but it brings other problems, as well. Prescott Maid To Order can be your solution to these windy, dusty Prescott days.

Dust and allergies

Have you ever noticed that your allergies are on the rise during this time of the year? Keeping your home free of dust may not eradicate those allergic symptoms, but it will certainly help. When you realize what dust is made of, it just makes sense why the body reacts negatively to it. Blowing dirt, bacteria, pollen, skin cells, pet dander, molds, hair, dust mites and decomposing insects are just a few ingredients setting on your furniture.

Where does it collect?

The room you sleep in tends to collect the most dust. With all the fabrics in the bedding and mattress and where we spend a great deal of time with our pets, it just becomes a mini dust bowl. Don’t be surprised when you start sneezing or having congestion when you decide to turn the lights out. Perhaps it is the dead skin cells and decomposed insects you are breathing.

Wifi and dust

Of course, as you have probably noticed, the more electronics in a home, the more dust. The wifi life we lead is a dusty life, too. These electronics attract the dust like nothing else. Also, let’s not forget the kitchen with its own set of appliances. So, the rooms you spend the most of your time in, are also the areas where you are breathing in the most dust.

Places to focus on when dusting

Areas that we suggest you focus on when you are ready to fight the dust head on are:
   
  • Window sills and mini blinds   
  • Appliances and electronics (don’t forget the backs)
  • Top of flat surfaces
  • Lighting and ceiling fans. You don’t want to turn on your fan only to be sprayed with dust.
  • Vacuum your upholstery to get rid of millions of skin cells and dust mites.
  • Knick knacks. The less clutter, the less dust in the home.
       
It is time to declare war on dust to give your home a fresh clean feel and relieve yourself and family from breathing in the dust particles. Prescott Maid to Order can help you fight the dust that these Prescott windy days tend to stir up. See for yourself why Prescott Maid to Order is the Quad Cities #1 cleaning service since 2005. Call for a free estimate for your Prescott home cleaning at 928-899-8518 and let us customize a home cleaning that fits your needs and your budget.
