clean underneath the appliance

Like with every other thing in the home that has a bottom (the couch, under the bed, etc.), underneath your home appliance should be cleaned. 

The same way bits of food or toys fall under the bed or couch is the same way things fall under your fridge or bacon grease under your toaster oven, washing machine, or dispenser. 

Do not focus on only the visible parts of your appliance. It does not matter if it cannot be seen by others, there is a certain satisfaction you gain from knowing all parts of your appliances are clean.

Don’t use bleach for every appliance

We love bleach as much as you do, probably even more due to its amazing disinfecting powers but it isn’t ideal for all appliances. 

We understand that you want to kill off the thousand and one germs on the appliance but the power of bleach can damage your appliance. Bleach has a corrosive component that could destroy the top layer of your appliance making it rust. 

We recommend that you look into other disinfecting cleaners that can work on your appliance without damaging it.

ask for help

This cannot be stated enough, if you feel out of your league and have absolutely no idea what you are doing, call for help. 

There is no harm in asking someone to show you the way when it comes to cleaning your appliances and there is no shame in seeking professional help for this. 

Plus the benefit outweighs the potential damage that might have been caused by not cleaning your supplies the right way.

Don’t use abrasives on stainless steel

An appliance that is made of metal does not automatically mean it can withstand tough blows, and stainless steel appliances show just that. Do not use harsh/ rough-edged materials on your stainless steel appliances as stainless steel tends to scratch easily. 

Also refrain from using harsh products such as bleach, ammonia, or scouring powders as they will damage the exterior of the appliance. Stainless steel materials do not pack in the dirt as much as other appliances so a simple wipe down with water often cleans out the dirt.

In the case of dried up stains, dip a rag into warm water and after squeezing out excess water wipe the dry stain away. Baby oil has been known to keep stainless steel appliances clean while adding a nice shine to them.

The Do’s And Don’ts Of Cleaning Home Appliances Part 1

by Martan McKee
the dos and donts of cleaning home appliances part 1

Our home appliances are there through thick and thin. Their sole purpose is to make life easier for us by simplifying the complex things when it comes to meal prep. For instance, we can have toast at the snap of a finger with a toaster. There is also the amazing fact that laundry is no longer an arduous task with a washing machine and dryer, plus the additional benefit of some dryers steaming our clothes for us. 

Most of us would not survive without our home appliances. It would feel like being thrown into the middle ages with having to do all things by hand at double the time. This is why we need to show some quality TLC to our appliances, after all, no one wins if they stop functioning.

If you have no idea what to do when it comes to taking care of your home appliances, or simply want to know if you have been doing it right, we have you covered. In this 7 part series, we have put together the major do’s and don’ts when it comes to cleaning your home appliances.

Our Customers Love Us

invest in the right cleaning supplies

Stop skimping and scheming on essential cleaning supplies. To ensure that your appliances remain in good shape for continuous use, one has to use the required materials to clean them. No one method fits all for your appliances. 

Using the wrong supplies can result in damage to the home appliance you want to clean. But using the right cleaning supplies reduces the cost of buying products and increases the efficiency and life expectancy of your products.

The right cleaning supplies will go much further than the wrong ones, leaving you with the best value for your money and shiny home appliances always.

using the right cleaning supplies

Unplug electrical appliances

As much as you might feel everyone knows this, you would be surprised to know that amount of people who get electrocuted while cleaning a home appliance. This is as simple as it sounds. 

Even if the appliance doesn’t have any exposed parts so long as it is an electrical appliance, we suggest that you unplug it before cleaning. Either way, it is best to not take chances. It is better to be on the safe side with an unplugged home appliance than to find out the powers of said appliance the hard way.

5 essential smart home devices for 2020

Technology and smart home devices have always been on the rise and in the last couple of years, it has changed much more than most of us can keep up with. We have gone from phones that only make phone calls to phones that can link up to your television. The rise of the Internet in things whereby home devices can communicate and share information via the internet is no longer a new thing, but this isn’t a lesson on how far technology has come. I

Voice activated Assistant Devices

Now we have things like Alexa and an updated Siri that can organize our calendar while linking to other devices in our home. These voice-activated assistants can be accessed in the form of smart speakers which makes life much easier.

 With this system, your heating cost is lowered. What better smart home device is there than one that saves you money and keeps you safe.

Smart Vacuums (our favorite)

The 7 Best Ways To Prevent Coronavirus

by Martan McKee
Prevent Coronavirus 2019-nCoV

What is the 2019 Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV)?

The 2019 Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) is a large family of viruses that are common in animals such as camels, cattle, cats and bats and is rarely found in humans. Coronavirus was first detected in Wuhan, China and thought to have spread from animal to person from a seafood and animal meat market but was later discovered that the outbreak of the Coronavirus was spreading from person to person.

What are the symptoms of 2019 novel Coronavirus?

In confirmed cases, symptoms can range from mildly sick to severely ill including death. In mild cases symptoms can include fever, sore throat, cough, headache, runny nose and in severe cases the symptoms can include high fever, cough with mucus, chest pain, tightness in chest with cough or breath, and shortness of breath. If you experience any of these symptoms contact your medical professional right away and avoid contact with others.

The 7 best ways to prevent 2019 novel coronavirus

With new confirmed cases  every day, and multiple confirmed cases here in the Greater Toronto Area, we all need to be pro active in our preventative measures when it comes to the Coronavirus. Below, we have found and listed the 7 best ways to prevent catching and spreading of the 2019 Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV)

Wash your hands regularly

Washing your hands is always a great way to prevent sickness and the spread of germs. Be sure to wash them thoroughly and often, especially during key times when you are likely to get and spread germs, such as treating a cut, before preparing a meal and after using the washroom.

The best way to wash your hands is with clean, warm water and applying soap to your hands, in between your fingers and under your finger nails. Be sure to scrub for at least 20 seconds, rinsing thoroughly and drying with a clean towel or air dryer.

Washing of hands with soap under running water

avoid touching your eyes, nose & mouth

It is always a good practice to avoid touching your face, especially your eyes, nose & mouth, this will help tremendously when it comes to avoiding nasty germs such as the Coronavirus.  Some times we touch our face subconsciously or if we have an itch, but there are several ways to combat the urge. Keeping your hands busy by doing activities such as doodling or knitting will keep you occupied enough to keep the germs away from your face, sometimes just sitting on your hands works as well. Another great way is to put a reminder on your hand or finger such as tying a string or shoelace around your finger.

avoid others who are sick

Avoiding others who are sick with any type of cold, flu or infection is always going to be on the top of the list to avoid becoming sick, unfortunately we all have lives to live, a job to go to as well as other daily activities. If you are at work and notice someone is sick, do your best to avoid them as much as possible, as well as avoiding anything they may have touched or been around such as faucets, writing utensils or work tools. Also completely avoid sharing food, drinks or dishes with anyone that shows signs of illness.

coronavirus sick in bed

stay home when you are sick

Most of the time when we are feeling ill, staying at home in bed is the only thing we can do. Feeling weak, tired & achy makes it impossible to get out of bed in the morning, but its our best and most effective way of recovering. 

Staying at home is also a great way to keep the virus contained and from spreading to your family & friends. If you have other family members in your household do your best to keep your distance, let them know you are sick by calling them on the phone or sending them an email, even if it is from the next room.

Be sure to sanitize frequently to keep any virus or germs from spreading throughout your home.

cover your cough's & sneezes

Did you know the germs in your sneeze can travel up to 200 times further then the water particles released in your sneeze! These germs can form a protective barrier that allows them to drift across large spaces and allowing them to live on surfaces for weeks on end. By covering your mouth and nose you can prevent the spread of germs like the Coronavirus to your friends and family.

The best and most effective way to cough or sneeze is into a tissue, not only does it prevent the germs from escaping, but with the proper tissues it can leave your nose and face clean. Always remember to properly dispose of any tissue you use, as it can contain the illness or virus that is effecting you.

If a tissue is not available, the next best option is to sneeze into your sleeve in the bend of your elbow, doing your best to catch the spray of the germs. Be sure to sanitize any skin that was exposed to your germs and send any clothing that was caught in the crossfire to be washed as soon as possible. 

clean and disinfect anything you touch

Falling ill to the Coronavirus can be devastating, but watching a friend or close family member be severely sick can be just as torturous, that is why it is important to clean and disinfect as much as possible to prevent the spread of germs. Disinfecting all surfaces such as counters, doors and doorknobs, kitchen appliances and bathroom fixtures on a regular basis will help to kill and remove any harmful germs and bacteria. Be sure to use a high quality disinfecting agent along with the proper tools and a good pair of latex gloves, which should be disposed of after every cleaning.

Clothes and bedding can also carry Coronavirus germs so it is important to regularly wash and dry them using a high quality laundry agent that will be sure to kill any germs. Germs can also live on plates, bowls and any other dishes that are used in the household so be sure to use a high quality dish soap if hand washing or set the dishwasher to sanitize if available.

hire a house cleaning service company

The best option to prevent the spread of Coronavirus is to have a professional house cleaning service deep clean and disinfect your home. A regular cleaning could be enough to give you peace of mind that your home is Cornoavirus free for you, your friends and family.

A Guide To Decluttering Your Home In 10 Easy Minutes

by Martan McKee
decluttering your home

Decluttering your home can seem like a daunting task.

No one randomly wakes up to a house full of stuff they have no use for or boxes piled high in a room unless it’s moving day. Whatever the case may be, clutter tends to sneak up on you. It often starts with a bag randomly dropped in hopes of being sorted through later. Next is an Amazon prime box you had every intention of disposing of but now has become home to your work. It might just be random stuff in the guest room that rarely ever gets used or the garage that receives most of the “boxes” than any other room, it becomes that storage bin that never seems to fill up.

Before you know it, the corners of your house are filled with things you haven’t touched or seen in months. The problem with decluttering your home is that we always make mental notes to sieve through it only to be dissuaded by the enormous task before us. A cluttered room has been linked as a stressed developer. It also breeds feelings of guilt at not being organized and in some cases, depression due to how cluttered space is.

We understand how one feels when they walk into a cluttered house. We know because we were there once upon a time. As a means to eliminate the feelings that accompany a cluttered home, we have created a guide that will assist you in gaining control of your home one room at a time.

Decluttering your home can seem like a daunting task let alone doing so in 10 minutes but with these steps and commitment, your clutter-free house is just within reach.

10 minutes of house cleaning

Let 10 minutes be 10 minutes:

When it comes to decluttering your home, one can sometimes get overboard. This is why we advise that your 10 minutes be 10 minutes. The thing with cleaning is that once you get into it, you reach a point where the adrenaline starts pumping and you feel as though you can go through the entire pile in a day. DO NOT GIVE IN TO THAT THOUGHT!

We say that because that path tends to kill a drive. Now you’re 30 minutes into a room either stuck on an item from the 90s that you didn’t realize you still owned or silently cursing why you even started as you face the mess before you. Before you embark on a decluttering mission, set a timer. Once your 10 minutes is up, remove the pile you organized out.

The 6-month rule:

For us, it is a 6-month rule but it could be anything from that to 2 years. It all depends on you. What this rule simply states is that if you come across an item that you haven’t used or even searched for within the last 6 months then you can do without it. Once such an item is found, the next step is to donate or trash said item.

This is commonly done with clothing items but we find that it works for everything. There is no point holding onto an item you forgot even existed before the cleaning began. This removes the clutter and keeps the essential items at the forefront.

Ask for help:

There is no shame in asking for help. Enlist your friends and family members to aid in the decluttering process. One person can tackle a lot in 10 minutes just imagine the results your home would get if you had more than one hand on deck, or a cleaning service such as Eh! Maids.

If you feel embarrassed about having someone see your house like this, you shouldn’t. We bet our bottom dollar, the person you don’t want to see the mess has one quite similar to yours. Besides, the end results in decluttering your home surely outweighs a perceived embarrassing moment.

Keep focused:

Once your mind is made up on clearing out the mess, chances are you would want to sweep in and accomplish all tasks at once. A plan like that is often not achievable and can be quite overwhelming. This is why our advice is that you select a corner you intend to give your undivided attention for the next 10 minutes.

We have noticed that it is easier to accomplish many small tasks over one major task. The key is to pace yourself and stay focused on that area you have decided to tackle. Bit by bit, the clutter will decrease.

Start small:

one of the easiest ways to be efficient and effective in decluttering your home is by doing your chores. Don’t crucify us yet, we assure you that there is a method to the madness. As you go on with your daily chores, carry a plastic bag along with you and toss in any item that looks out of place in that area.

Rather than tackling a room for your first cleaning spree, tackling areas, you come across daily makes it easier when it is time for the rooms. For example, while dusting your shelf, go through the items on there and toss out the unnecessary items.

A lot can be done in a small amount of time!

10 minutes might not seem like a lot of time to accomplish a task but with a drive to see your house clutter-free, nothing is impossible. Look beyond the massive piles of things around you and focus on your space being free of junk. With commitment, a time frame, and an area of focus each day, your house will be clutter-free in no time.

3 Natural Products To Keep Your House Clean And Hygienic

by Martan McKee
natural cleaning products

Room cleaning is tiring, but if you do not tackle it in the first stage, it will become difficult to remove the stubborn stains and stinking materials later. It will be an unhygienic situation, and you will not prefer to stay in that. Many of you think that readymade cleaning products can do your job quickly, but those are harsh chemicals. They can react with the materials of your room items and cause damage. Thus, it is a wise choice to choose natural products that will not be harmful to your house. 

First, you need to decide whether you want to do it all alone or call the experts. Taking professional help can keep you stress-free, and your house will be taken good care of. Still, there are specific ways to clean your living room or bedroom naturally. Homemade natural products are also a great money saver, most of the ingredients, if not already found in your home, can easily be found at any local supermarket.  The professionals at https://nwmaids.com have compiled a list of natural cleaning methods that you can use to live a hygienic lifestyle:

Clean with Lemon Water Solution

This is one of the most effective solutions and can easily remove bad odors from your rooms and work on stains. Make the solution with lemon juice, water, and baking soda. Pour the solution in a spray bottle and sprinkle it on the stubborn stain of coffee, ink, etc. Let it sit for a few minutes and wipe off. The stains will be gone or close to gone, if there is still some stain visible, let the stain dry and reapply the lemon water solution, let it sit and then wipe dry.

This solution also works as a natural disinfector, spray around your living room like room freshener and the aroma will keep most insects away. This solution works great on most vertical surfaces to keep the dust at bay and the room smelling naturally fresh.

Vodka disinfectant

Vodka Solution for dissinfecting

The molds and mildews at the difficult corner of your rooms cause enough damage, and it gives you an awkward smell to make it difficult to live there. Mix equal parts of vodka and water, and add a few drops of your favorite essential oil in it. This solution not only removes molds and its bad odor but also makes your rooms smell nice. Using the solution with your regular cleaning routine will help keep bad bacteria, germs, and viruses at bay and prevent any molds from getting out of hand.

all purpose Citrus Solution mix

This solution helps a lot to keep the windows streak-free. You need to soak orange peels in undiluted white vinegar. Leave it for a week and then use the skins to clean the window shrills. It is one of the best solutions for the grimes in the window of your rooms. Citrus is also one of the best natural disinfectants to be found. Use it in your bathroom to disinfect your fixtures and to be sure they stay clean.

And if home made products are not for you...

Those mentioned above room-cleaning solutions are entirely green and do no harm if you have pets and kids at home. However, if you do not have enough time to do all this and require an experts touch, calling professional cleaning services will be the best option for you. Not only will you get the benefits of a clean and tidy home, but you will save yourself all of the time and effort to do the cleaning tasks, and put it towards more valuable objectives in your life, or by just relaxing with family and friends.

by Martan McKee

how does one clean your house quickly with no time?

 

1. Gather the dirty dishes from each room and put them within the sink. As soon as you’ll be able to spare some time (preferably immediately after use) rinse any food remnants, and let the dishwasher do its magic.

2. Remember to wash the sink, kitchen countertops and appliances consistently, to create the cleaning process easier and less time-consuming the next time around.

With a brief amount of your time to spare when you work full time, you’ll want to use it wisely. Don’t waste a second fretting about getting every tiny detail right, but simply clean as best as you can and attempt to clean the whole house. Creating a strategy and sticking to that may be a good place to begin.

Follow these basic rules, and you’ll be all set to clean your house quickly: 

7. Make your own cleaning schedule that you’re comfortable with and continue with the tasks you set for yourself. If it helps your motivation, keep track of what’s been done by checking the boxes on the list which you’ll put front and center on the fridge.

8. Try to clean in real-time whenever you can. Meaning: attempt to clean the messes and dirt as soon as they happen or once you notice them, especially in situations that may worsen if you simply leave them alone. It is always easier to chip away at the cleaning before you have to do the big clean! By leaving everything to be done at once can lead to burn out as well as contribute to a lack of motivation which in turn can make you quit before the cleaning chores are complete. 

9. Don’t postpone cleaning your appliances. You’d be doing yourself an enormous disservice if you waited too long to wash appliances: things can get pretty gritty in there. On the opposite hand, if you clean your house and appliances regularly, it’s quite the opposite: cleaning is always much quicker and easier whenever you get to that.

 

10. Include your family in cleaning. Split housework consistent with preferences. Make cleaning fun by turning it into a game. Get creative! Set rewards for your children to see how many cleaning chores and tasks they can complete, but always stick to your word or they may never want to help you clean again!

House Cleaning Toronto Maid Tips: How To Solve Maid Problems

Despite having a real easy outlook, the domestic chores are a full-time job and can get messy if there are a number of people in the family. For instance, with kids or toddlers, managing cooking, washing, cleaning as well as catering to their needs is not an easy task at hand. You certainly need the urge to hire help or a professional maid to offload you.  However, just like any other employee, some maids also have their challenging personalities and you might end up flabbergasted by their attitude. 

To keep the things going, people usually keep dragging themselves along with the troublesome maids. Let’s look at the universal maid problems and the ways to address them:

Nosy or meddling behaviour 

Many people face this issue once they have hired the maids. The curiosity and meddling in the affairs of other people result in a lot of troubles for both the parties. Not only does it breach the privacy of the home, but it also damages the barrier of respect. In such a case, make sure that you set a professional distance in the initial days on hiring. Make sure that there is a fine line between being friendly and being nosy. If you define your limits assertively, you will be able to deal with the maids in a better manner and that too without being harsh.

House Cleaning Toronto Maid Procrastination

Attitudes are usually good at the beginning of the journey, however, once the message of a permanent job gets through, things usually start to get shaky. Many people start to face this issue with the maids early. Taking the instructions but not really fulfilling or executing them promptly. Laziness and procrastination might be because they are overworked and burdened by the chores of your house, but if this is not the case it would very easy frustrate you. To eliminate this from the equation, try to be firm, clear and serious in your instruction. Don’t treat them like a robot, let them have their breaks but make sure you keep a track of the assigned job.

Inefficient performance 

If they are doing the instructed things but not as efficiently as you expected, don’t panic. Just try to gauge if they are ready to learn whatever you are trying to teach about your house. If they are, putting in time and effort will not be a loss. Make sure that they are properly fed and aren’t dealing with any other anxiety. If they are persistently performing badly and your efforts are going down the drain, you might have to evaluate other options. 

Settlement issues with house cleaning Toronto maids

Sometimes the change in a country, city or just the household take tolls on a person. If your hired maid is not getting along well with everyone’s expectations, problems might arise. Your role here is to have a one-on-one talk with your maid and then make necessary suggestions to deal with it.  Next, have a talk with the family member who’s not getting along with your helper. You shall accentuate the significance of coordination and conciliation while living under the same house.

Negligence with the kids or elderly

This issue can have grave consequences. For instance, if the helpers or maids are taking out their frustrations on the kids or helpless elderly dependents in the family, it might be offensive. If this is done in your absence and you have sensed something wrong, immediately act. Behaviour like these are common these days and if not taken seriously, they can result in irreversible damage.  

One should always think of the house cleaning Toronto maids as humans. For instance, they should never be given more work than they can manage. Try to be firm and assertive while assigning them the chores, and never underestimate the power of dialogue. Emphasizing on the virtue of kindness and harmony always pay off.
