Holiday Cleaning Tips

Cleaning & Decorating the Porch

Whether its a large porch, a small balcony, or just steps to your front door, it should be debris free. Clean pine needles, dirt, leaves, and anything else mother nature left at your doorstep.
Move any toys, or lawn chairs that may be sitting there, store them elsewhere.
Clean windows facing the entrance, and wipe down the front door
Use a doormat with a holiday saying written on it
Add a wreath to your front door – if you don’t want to have a nail in your door, use an adhesive hook
Use lights around the entrance to add some welcoming warmth

Spruce Up the Inside

Dust, sweep, vacuum and mop every surface in your home. Even the baseboards.
Touch up any walls with leftover paint for a quick but effective fix.
Wash any runners, or carpets – or replace them if they are worn.
Make space on your kitchen counter-tops. Clean the fridge out, and organize it.
Make space in your closet for guests winter jackets
Light scented candles (apple pie, cinnamon, pumpkin pie etc)

Make sure that you clean the home thoroughly before decorating, this includes every room in the home; don’t forget to wipe all windows, window sills, and curtains as well as ceilings and light fixtures.

We are very happy with the repairs and with Avalon Steamatic. Your team is fantastic! From the initial survey and analysis of the damage by Dave, to Kevin’s team with their excellent carpentry and cabinet making skills, to the excellent work by the cleaning staff, and to your readily accessible self, keeping us in the loop on everything – we were in good hands, and we thank you. I’m pretty sure this was our second time around (second water damage) claim that your company looked after, and it was reassuring to have such a professional company restore our property. We would certainly recommend Avalon Steamatic for anyone going through a similar experience.
