thank you for your answers ❤ Love listening to you both :)
Thank you so much.
Thank you for sharing! Vids like this help motivate me to do even the littlest things 🧡🩵💙
Silled?
So that is a protective coating that is added to the surface of the flooring to help prevent damage and stains. Many of the surfaces in a home from your floors, sinks, bathtub, and countertops have a protectant coating to help the life of the item.
Can it be used on slab cement flooring that has an epoxy finish?
I personally would avoid using a steam cleaner on an expoxy floor. It may weaken the floor and harm the surface. If you do use it, avoid using it often and use it on its lowest setting.
Take the effects off, can’t even see the real before and after
Gorgeous cat! I clicked to sample one of your cleaning videos for ideas dealing with cat hair. Still wondering what you suggest. But gorgeous cat and nice music! 🙏🏼🇨🇦
In the next few weeks we will be answering your question in detail in a video. For now, I would suggest a ChompChomp. It is a cleaning tool that helps get pet hair off furniture.
I just went into my rental . I had the same tenants for 23 years. OMG, I don't think they ever cleaned the oven or stovetop. Thank you for the tips!
The volume was too low on my laptop. I couldn't hear well enough to finish watching your video. Can you make them louder?
A tip from me, another professional cleaner - if you planning for new kitchen island avoid having sink or cooker top in it. Looks nice in the magazines the truth is is the messiest spot in the kitchen and you will have it right in the middle as a statement piece.. Keep your island for beautiful vase of flowers, fruit bowl and breakfast bar, extra prep space
Solid surface bathroom floors are easier to clean but high risk slip hazzard. Especially in a room that so many head injuries happen. The more grout lines on the floor the safer. Walls on the other hand, no point in tons of tile.
car's name is blanche because she has a white varnish?
It sounds counter productive but, if you don’t have the fingerprint free stainless steel, after you've cleaned it, put a few drops of cooking oil on a cloth and wipe a very thin coat all over the appliance. The oil is invisible and actually stops any fingerprints from showing. l was working as a cleaner when stainless steel appliances became fashionable and they were a nightmare. A friend gave me this tip and l absolutely didn't believe it so, didn’t try if for weeks but, it really works. 😊
We will give to give that a try. We have used lemon oil before. We just stay away from stainless steel leaner.
Have had both porcelain and stainless sinks and I will never have a porcelain sink again. Coffee, tea, everything stains porcelain!
I actually love my white porcelain sink because it is much easier to keep clean than the stainless sink in my laundry room. A cleaner with bleach in it does the trick.
Have a 1950s continuous stainless steel one piece sink and counter. Love it! The wear over the years looks classic and is unusual to have. It has a marine edge so no spills over the edge. You can wipe everything right into the sink. Don’t make things like this anymore, highly recommend over ANY other surface.
If only they still made things as well as they did in the 50s. We had a client that had the same sink, and no matter how old it was, it always looked amazing when we cleaned it. And it didn't show scratches like a new sink.
I have been cleaning my stainless steel sink with comet for 40 years and it still looks new. Just go with the grain when cleaning.
I love my robot vacuum! It really helps and I run it almost everyday for maintenance around our home. I love all the cat hair it gets too
What brand is it, please ?
Just hope your cat(s) never poops on the floor. The horrid mess of the robot running over that and spreading all over your home will negate any benefits you've experienced.
Great tips. Thanks for sharing.
I've noticed (from YT & tv) that stainless steel kitchen & laundry appliances are particularly popular or coveted in North America but when it comes to the kitchen sink, then it doesn't seem such a popular material. Funnily enough it is more like the opposite here in the UK, though stainless steel kitchen goods are certainly becoming a bit more popular now. Personally I don't see the attraction for so much stainless steel though I do prefer it for the kitchen sink as it stands up to everything & is easy to clean.
As a North American, I fully agree with you. I love my plain and easy to clean stainless steel sink but dislike my SS appliances. I've never understood how the trend has lasted so long. It looks cold and imdustrial, and they're a pain to clean. I know from experience because I have my own but also had a professional cleaning business for over 12 years. My mom was excited for her new off-white porcelain sink when she remodeled her kitchen and came to regret it after a while.
@KatarinaS What a shame for your mother! I grew up with that type of sink because that's just what was always in old houses. They are often known as butler sinks here, if you are meaning the big deep rectangular ones. They can look nice while new but my memories were of them being stained & chipped! I think their popularity comes from their vintage/farmhouse style that is in vogue. While my personal preference is for the vintage look, like you said in another comment, I don't like having things I have to baby either! Practicality is my priority.
I want white next time around 😊
CARPETS AND RUGS OVERALLLLLLL!!! Like it literally takes me 2 hours to vacuum and shampoo the tiny carpet in my bedroom! NOOO!!
A lot of stainless steel appliances are actually aluminum.
we just moved into our first home and the shower walls are solid (engineered marble, E-Stone). I LOVE tile, but not the maintenance so you can imagine how quickly I fell in love with our nearly seamless shower surrounds. Until living here and despite squeegeeing the wall, our hard water just sticks. And in some places like the shelf, bench, and our vanity tops (they are the same material) the hard water has etched into it - so I have water rings on my shower bench (from shampoo bottles) and vanity (from previous owners that were here just 6 months) I don't know what to use on it without ruining them! Nothing takes the hard water off easily and the etching, I have no idea where to start. I know vinegar works well on glass, but on engineered stone everything I've read I cannot use vinegar. Baking soda is a no-no too, but I've tried it anyway and it fails me every time. BKF is also a no-no. I'm lost. Any advice? You mentioned they don't need to be sealed but I think these are. Same with our quartz kitchen countertops and backsplash. I've tried stone cleaner on all of these and nothing works. New materials are meant to be easier to maintain and more durable, but our subway tile in my mom's house was relentless and stood up to all the abuse of 4 showers a day and heavy hitting cleaners! Please help 🤪
Have you tried hot water and a little dishwashing liquid? Try putting some cornstarch over the area after washing with water and dishwashing liquid to absorb extra oil left behind if needed, need to let it sit for awhile to work. I have read where hydrogen peroxide or rubbing alcohol could also work if the soap doesn’t. As a last resort I have read you could try lightly buffing it with 0000 steel wool taking care not to scratch it - you may want to consult a dealer in your area that specializes in these kinds of stone finishes.
What a pain. Why haven't they figured out how to make stuff that's durable and able to withstand the elements, especially in the kitchen and bath. They are wet rooms and all surfaces need to be tough enough to withstand moisture deteriorating, oils from food or hygiene products without staining, and frequent cleaning without scratching. I hate surfaces that I have to baby, buy special expensive products for, and constantly have to keep on top of and spend inordinate amounts of time cleaning and keeping dry.
I think you're supposed to get them resealed regularly and it sounds like the previous owners haven't done it. Contact a local manufacturer as they may be able to re-polish and reseal it or, at the very least, be able to advise you on what to do. Good luck.
Try wiping with the rinse aid product that you add to dishwashers to prevent hard water stains. This works great to remove the spots, however will not affect etching. I once saw someone add it to outdoor window washing liquid applied by hose and decided to try it on glass shower doors. I just apply a bit to the glass with a paper towel. I do not know if the product contains anything that would be harmful to your surfaces though.
I never understood the type of vacuum cleaner that stands upright with a loose cord and the dust bag hanging loose. How do you empty that? In Europe we have cleaners with replaceable dust bags and automated cord rollers. Super easy and super clean. But I guess that’s a cultural thing.
it's not cultural: we have the same type of modern vacuum you like here as well. the out dated 1950's vacuum style seen in the video as a pink vaccum with loose bag and cord wrapped around the legs is a very old vintage model (there's a paper dust bag inside that outside bag, interesting that these still have very powerful suction so some people keep them), but modern models usually have a clear washable plastic container that the dust goes into, along with a filter that can be cleaned as well, so the empty process is very easy IMO.
Bagless vacuum cleaners, particularly rechargeable cordless ones have become so popular here in the UK (we are part of Europe too) that the choice of vacuum with a paper bag &/or corded has become quite limited here. Also finding a local supply of paper dust bags for an appliance can be difficult. I have a certain well known German brand that is built like a tank & though it is twenty plus years old its variable suction at the highest setting could give you liposuction! I will always seek to use a vacuum with a bag as no dust escapes when it is emptied, the one on my appliance seals itself as you remove it.
I went back to a bag hoover .miele .it's fantastic and easy to here bags .they seem robe herring popular again .I just felt the nagless was never as good as the Dyson I had .I'm in ireland.lobe my miele 😊@@minskysfeedbackyianni1302
I do like my stick vacuum- it doesn’t have super suction but it is wonderful for quick light cleaning and for hardwood floors. So lightweight with no cord, handy to use.
What is the brand, please ?
@@MarilynBrunoI have a Tineco.
Thank you for that because I have hardwood floors, but I have a big old Bissell vacuum cleaner and all it does is blow everything around so I’m looking for something that will not do that. Does it clean rugs OK cause I have a couple of rugs that need vacuuming
@@bonniegaither3994yes the model I have has two different vacuuming heads and a variety of attachment tools too. There is a head for vacuuming rugs or carpet and another head for bare floor.
I have one also. 😊 @@sally6187
Great tips!
It doesnt work. You can clean most things, but then the pasta boils over . You can clean the floor but then your friend spills wine on the rug. You can wash the windows, and somehow they break the sliding glass door. You clean the fridge and TWO ppl break a shelve and a drawer. Life is suffering, i get it now
Useful
Thank you! This is so helpful. Teddy is adorable!😊
I have fluted beams on my front door, and French doors on the side of my house. 😮😮 Never stay clean. Thank you for the tip.
Beginner mistake: first vacuum, brush or dust dry for most of the dirt, then wipe with damp micro towel for stains.
We appreciate the advice, but we did dust first. This was in a home where only the main living areas were ever cleaned. This room was packed full of things, with just a walkway. We are not beginners. In fact, together, we have over 26 years of cleaning experience. I hope you have an amazing day.
@@CleaningtheECwayhere also a person who is cleaning since 16 for rentals. Then why I see so much lose dust when you begin wiping wet - Especially at the cable switch or in the corner. Wet wiping tends to smear dust and hair, making it take longer to clean. I hope that my suggestion for improvement has helped you to remove such stubborn dirt more quickly and with less effort in the future. I also sometimes get inspiration from videos to do things more efficiently. I hope you have a nice day too.
I honestly like the shine dish soap gives after it's been rinsed off in sinks.
I do too.
Tysm
I love seeing their friendship. Great video ❤
Thank you so much❤️
I have this what you show on this video in the bathroom. I keep the disinfecting wipes on top of the toilet tank for keeping the toilet clean. Makes it as a reminder and convenient access.
This is super practical, simple, and to the point❤ A+ on this video!
First time here. Don't know why you showed up here but grateful you did. Yes, I have subscribed! 🥰
3:21 gonna be gross? it already was by now 😰
I was at a hotel for 2 nights and there was hair on the bed and on the doors. The next day it was the same. Then I saw the cleaning staff. A very hairy man, didn't wonder where the hair came from any more 😮
So it's always the guests responsibility to change sheets and everything? the bedsheets from the previous guest are removed though?
Yes, when they come in to clean, they change the sheets. They only come in once a week, or once you have checked out. It is a time share thing.
Part 2 when is it coming?
I agree with everything but am iffy on the undermount sink. I love ours & I don't have any buildup or mold under the edge & we've had it for 4 years now. I just do a quick swipe underneath the rim & it's good. It's the cleanest part of the sink IME since nothing collects & sits there.
So helpful as always
Glad you think so!
And, if you love a decor/material/appliance or hardware and understand the maintenance, make yourself happy and have it in your home. Cleaners are paid to clean.
Right?
Just came across you guys! You have A NEW Subscriber now!!! Looking forward to ya'lls videos
Good point about flat-bottomed sinks. In my rental it's the overhead rain shower-head. It's very high up so I need a ladder to clean it. But my ladder does not fit in my awkward little shower enclosure. I have very hard water prone to build-up. Eventually the build-up in caused the tiny streams of water to squirt weakly in wild directions instead of falling straight down. Just like a spa....
RE: Undermount kitchen/bath sinks: Yes, dirt would collect. However, the over mounts do the same thing. The difference is where the dirt comes from and how the 'underneath' sink edge could be cleaned. Since there is little difference here, I prefer the over mount because it gives me more vanity space.
