Reviews of QuickCleaner. We love it when people review our service and our cleaners, our customers are the best barometer of how we are doing

A clean house is a sign of a wasted life - its an age old proverb and very true.....sort of. Its not demeaning the work of cleaning or the value of a clean house what it is saying is that we need to spend life living not preparing to live. If you rush home from work on a Friday night to get a head start on the hoovering instead of joining the office in the pub or if your entire weekend is swallowed up with scrubbing and polishing and cleaning grime from nooks and cranny's it stands to reason you won't have spent much time experiencing the billions of things this wonderful world has to offer. 

How about if the kids want to bake cakes but you can't let them because you are dreading the clean up operation after. Where does it lead us - stop cleaning start living. Trouble is your relief won't last long. Its a bit like quitting work to concentrate on living, pretty soon the money will run out and it becomes a whole lot harder to enjoy your life. There is nothing nice or comfortable about living in a dirty, unclean, cluttered house. It doesn't need to be showroom perfect but constantly looking through grimy windows will always put a unique depressing filter on the world you see. That's where a professional cleaning service can be a game changer. How about the best of both worlds. A nice clean home that makes you happy and comfortable and gives you the space and ability to live the way you want.....but someone else is spending the time to keep it that way. You can get on with living, get on with spending time with the kids get on with living your life. Cleaning, laundry and ironing services from QuickCleaner start from just £9 per hour! Small price to pay for a life unwasted

Cleaning and sanitising (sanitizing for our American readers!) are word often used incorrectly to describe the same thing. You can clean without and sanitising and you can also sanitise something without cleaning. 

In most cases, especially areas of your home such as kitchens and bathrooms that can be home to high levels of pathogens you need to be cleaning AND santising to ensure you have a safe, healthy and pleasant environment. 

To put it simply: Cleaning is the process of removing visible dirt, residue, debris or any unwanted items from somewhere or something. When you wipe up split milk from a table top you are cleaning. IE removing most of the milk from where you don't want it to be however it is worth noting that you are not necessarily removing or eliminating pathogens and micro-organisms such as bacteria. viruses and amoeba  

Sanitising or disinfecting is the process of removing, destroying or denaturing these micro organisms. Contrary to what you might think it is possible to sanitise without cleaning. using an alcohol hand gel on muddy hands is a good example. Where the gel may kill or denature the harmful bacteria in to soil on your hands it doesn't actively remove the dirt itself. So you can have muddy hands that are not carrying any or at least not many germs. 

For Proper deep home cleaning you should follow a process that is simply: Clean and then Sanitise. In high risk areas such as kitchens you will first clean all surfaces with a soap type cleaner and remove all visible dirt and stains and tidy up any mess. Once the surfaces are completely clear to the eye you should apply an antibacterial cleaning product to kill any remaining pathogens and micro organisms. Most hard surfaces like kitchen tops then need cleaning to remove any residue of the cleaning products to avoid any streaks or watermarks and leave you with a gleaming, clean surface that you could eat off. 

I remember passing a surfing shop once and it has a big banner with the phrase:

"We don't sell boats, we sell time on the water"

That really got us thinking and it transformed our business. 

It is fair to say there are too many reasons to hire a cleaner than we could ever list. The big ones include:

• Having someone who can take care of the cleaning jobs you hate
• Helping someone stay independent in their own home
• Getting an expert clean or achieving a level of deep clean that you couldn't achieve on your own
• The joy and pleasure a fresh clean bright house can bring (fresh sheets anyone!)

But this post is about one of the biggest: Saving Time. Life never stops, if you are a hard working professional or in a busy family or maybe someone who can't clean as fast as they used to then getting a cleaner in from a little as £9 can be a game changer. No more spending your precious free time following a hoover round the house or scrubbing the toilet. You don't buy cleaning services you buy Time and that is beyond value. 

Who knows perhaps you will even discover a love of surfing in the time you save every week. 

The Dishwasher is probably the most time saving device you have in your kitchen. You need to keep your dishwasher in a great condition to prolong it's life and also to make it safe and hygienic for all the cutlery and dishes it cleans for you. You certainly do not want a build up of bacteria, mold or mildew in there! 

One of the most important steps is descaling. IE removing build ups of limescale and other deposits left by hard water. You need to do this fairly regularly from Month to every six months depending on how hard your water is. The good news is that it is relatively easy and in expensive to do and you won't need any expensive cleaning products

What You'll Need:

• Vinegar
• Glass  measuring Jug

The technique is simple. In an empty dishwasher place the jug on the top shelf and fill it with 300-500ml of vinegar. Run the dishwasher on a quick cycle without drying. The vinegar will mix with the water as the cycle goes on spreading it to all areas of the dishwasher and dissolving all limescale and water deposits.
The best part is that because you only used vinegar and not caustic chemicals there is no danger to you or anyone in the house and the dishwasher can be used immediately without any worries. 


Of Course dishwash descaling and dishwasher cleaning can be added to the schedule of jobs for your QuickCleaner cleaner. Visit our main site to find your perfect cleaner in Cardiff, Cleaner in Swindon or Cleaner in Portsmouth
