Wall And Ceiling Cleaning

While scrubbing down an entire wall may not be the most common chore, you do occasionally need to do it. Whether you are cleaning up after remodeling work, preparing for company, or getting ready to put your house on the market, you’ll want every bit of your house to look its best. There are a few helpful tips to making scrubbing your walls no chore at all.

The paint you put on your wall plays an important role in how much you’ll have to wash it. Gloss or semigloss paints wash very easily. In fact, if you’ve been considering repainting, you may find that a glossy paint will look rejuvenated after just a simple washing! Try scrubbing a small section of your wall to see if you notice a difference after the cleaning.

Walls that are coated with flat paint can be more difficult. Fingerprints, grease and other stains are difficult to remove; unfortunately, cleaning solutions may cause flat paints to fade or even chip. Try using a soft cloth with warm water to remove visible stains gently. Work in isolated areas instead of trying to wash down an entire wall covered in flat paint.

Your ceilings are another rarely-cleaned but important part of your home. Avoid letting your ceilings become covered in mildew–especially in the bathroom. Keep the room well ventilated and be sure to wipe down the ceiling regularly. Many people prefer to wash their ceiling with bleach, but some prefer green cleaning products like tree tea oil.
