Practicing Regular Maintenance for Your Home
When you need to sell or rent your home there are too many things you need to fix and improve, if you don’t maintain your home regularly that is. So, naturally, the best way to avoid last-minute major repairs and huge expenses is to practice regular maintenance. Here are 3 things you can do regularly for your home from a home maintenance service expert.
Doors
When it comes to your doors, there are two things that most commonly happen with age and with weather changes. One is that the hinges get squeaky and two is that the door gets stuck as the wood expands. This is a problem, especially when it rains. To stop the squeaks just use some lubricant, like grease or WD-40. To keep the door from jamming you can use some sandpaper or a wood planer to smooth out the door so it shuts well.
Water Stains on Walls
Water stains can happen for many reasons, from bad plumbing to cracks in the wall, after fixing the main cause of these stains, you need to erase the damage it has done. The best way is to make a mix of 10% bleach to the water. Put this mixture in a spritzer bottle and spray it on the stains. These spots are likely to clear up in 24 hours, just see to it that you use the bleach carefully. If this seems like too much work, you can always buy a ready-made stain cleaner from the store.
Deep clean
Apart from all the regular cleaning that you do daily and weekly, you also need to do a deep cleaning of your home. This can be done either annually or biannually as per the size and usage of your home. This means cleaning out places and portions of your home that don’t get cleaned regularly. Places like under the cupboard, fans, lights, behind TVs, and so on.
