Welcome Winter with a Fresh, Clean Home
Winter brings cosy nights, warm drinks, and more time spent indoors, but it can also bring dust, damp, and unwanted mess. As we retreat inside to escape the chill, our living spaces deserve extra care to stay clean, healthy, and comfortable.
This ultimate winter home cleaning checklist is designed to help you tackle the season with confidence. Whether you’re preparing guests or simply creating a snug sanctuary for your family, these tips brought to you by MK Cleaning Services will help you refresh your home, room by room.
1. Warm Up Your Heating Zones
Dust vents, radiators, and reverse-cycle units to prevent allergens and improve air circulation.
Clean or replace filters in heaters, split systems, and air purifiers.
Check for draughts and seal window and door gaps to keep the warmth in
Professional Tip: MK Cleaning Services can assist with seasonal cleans that target high-use areas and those hard-to-reach spots where dust builds up in winter.
2. Create a Cosier Bedroom
Flip and rotate mattresses for better support and longevity.
Swap to winter bedding. Think flannel sheets, thicker doonas, and extra throws.
Vacuum under beds and behind furniture, where dust likes to hide.
