Should I hire cleaners or manage summer clean-up myself?« Back to Previous Page
|
After the heavy dust storms last month, I noticed a thick layer of dirt on all the window sills and shelves in my living room. My daughter also mentioned that some corners of our bedroom are quite messy with cobwebs, which she hasn’t seen before. Given we’re moving into summer and want to ensure everything is pristine for guests, should I consider hiring professional cleaners or can I manage it myself?

Absolutely, the decision to hire cleaners or manage your summer clean-up yourself largely depends on your comfort level and time constraints. However, given that you've noticed a significant amount of dust and cobwebs after the heavy dust storms last month, it might be wise to consider professional assistance.
In Dubai, as in many parts of the UAE, indoor environmental quality is crucial due to our climate conditions and frequent sandstorms. The local health authority guidelines recommend regular cleaning schedules and maintaining air quality through proper ventilation and air filtration systems. Considering that the coming summer months are prone to high temperatures and humidity, it's essential to keep your living spaces clean and hygienic. If you do decide on a DIY approach, here’s a basic checklist for your reference: 1. Dust all surfaces including window sills, shelves, and corners. 2. Clean windows and mirrors thoroughly. 3. Vacuum carpets and rugs, paying attention to high-traffic areas. 4. Wipe down walls and ceilings (if accessible). 5. Wash curtains and blinds if necessary. 6. De-clutter and organize storage spaces. Remember, in Dubai and the UAE, it's recommended to use eco-friendly cleaning products that do not release harmful chemicals into your living space. Also, ensure you maintain good indoor air quality by using air purifiers or ensuring proper ventilation. However, if you're finding this task overwhelming, or if you suspect any mold growth due to the recent storms, it might be prudent to hire professionals. They can conduct a thorough inspection and clean areas that are difficult for regular cleaning tools to reach. Moreover, in cases of suspected mold, hiring experts is crucial as improper handling could lead to health issues. Call 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com for professional inspection and remediation services. Remember, maintaining good indoor air quality is not just about aesthetics but also about your family's health. Taking the time now to clean up will ensure that your home is ready for summer guests and provides a comfortable environment throughout the warmer months. |
