Stuck at Home? Top Tips From You’ve Got Maids’ Elite Cleaning Team for A Clean, Fresh Home in 2021 

If you’ve lived and worked in the Fairfax and Loudoun VA area as long as I have, you already know – we get all four seasons here. And we’re really getting some winter right now!

It’s an odd time of year, isn’t it? From late January into February and March, the festivities of the holidays are mostly over – but this chilly winter weather is hanging around like an overstayed houseguest. The weather’s cold and dry, sniffles are common, there’s not much sunlight in a day and people tend to hibernate in their homes a little more.

As Northern Virginia’s most 

trusted house cleaning company, You’ve Got Maids sees all that adding up to one thing:

Winter is the perfect time to bring a little spring into your home!

Trusted House Cleaning Best Practices: A Fresh Cure for Cabin Fever

So it’s 2021. A new year, right? Let’s face it – for some folks it’s just “same old same old.”

It’s been a year and there’s still some months to go before the COVID-19 virus pandemic is hopefully eradicated. In the meantime, these chilly months of winter and early spring are what viruses like best. Maybe you’re quarantining to prevent the spread of the Coronavirus, or maybe you just don’t like going out in the cold – but the fact is, a lot of people are spending a lot of time indoors right now.

Anybody stuck at home so long – kids, grownups, anyone – could come down with a bad case of cabin fever.

But have no fear! Take advantage of our expert cleaning concepts and cleaners trained in our proprietary Maid UniversityTM to treat yourself to a spring-fresh home – and you can prevent the spread of that, too!

Winter is a Great Time to Become a Professional House Cleaner

Don’t give in to the winter blues. Make your home shiny and bright like Springtime – and our Top Tips will help!

Did you know winter is the best time for a little spring cleaning? It really is, for a few reasons:

  • There’s usually less activity in the winter, so folks tend to have some time to do a little cleaning, straightening, and freshening up.
  • Your whole family will enjoy spending indoor time together when your home is comfortable, cared for, and fresh.
  • It makes any actual spring cleaning you do in April a lot easier.
  • Keeping your home clean in the wintertime is a highly effective preventive measure in the fight against viral infections like the cold, the flu – and yes, even COVID-19.

Top Tips to Spring Up Your Home This Winter – From Your Local  Elite Cleaning Team

You know that indescribable feeling you get when you open the door on the first real day of spring? You can have those same feelings of renewal and spring-like freshness in your home this winter.

You’ve Got Maids of Northern Virginia has a host of helpful hints about how you can freshen up your home this January and feel a bit more like it’s June.

  1. They detoxify, they beautify…. Houseplants are your friends!
    Houseplants are wonderful at cleaning the air in your home. One report on a NASA study says plants help by absorbing carbon dioxide, releasing oxygen, and removing pollutants like benzene, formaldehyde, and trichloroethylene.

    Plus, a perky bamboo palm or a calming peace lily would really liven up a dreary, wintry room!

  2. Don’t let the dust hit the fan.
    Take a moment to dust or wipe down the blades of ceiling fans or rotating fans. It’s a good idea to run a fan on low to keep air fresh in the Winter – just make sure you’re not spreading unwanted dust particles as well!
  1. Deal with it before you smell it.
    Some smells linger so long, you don’t even notice anymore – and Winter may disguise scents that Spring will reveal!

    It’s only natural. Odors build up in kitchen trash cans or around the pet’s areas. Next time you take out the trash, clean out the dog’s dish or scoop up the cat litter, take a moment to disinfect and wipe down the area.
  1. Put spring things around your home.
    The holidays may be over but you can still be festive! Be an early bird – decorate your home for Spring in February!

    Place dried lavender in a vase. Hyacinths make a colorful - and fragrant - addition to any room. Put up bright curtains in the living room to catch some sunlight. Have your curtains already been there for a long time? Consider dry-cleaning them, or at least spray them down with some fabric spray
  1. Do some serious spring cleaning – or just call You’ve Got Maids of Northern Virginia!
    Does Winter feel like it's been lingering too long already? Start off 2021 with a little Spring Cleaning – and feel great about your home!
