There is some cleaning equipment or tools every home shouldn’t be without. Whether you’re newly married and moving into your own home and need your own cleaning equipment or a single bachelor that’s moving out for the first time. Perhaps you are not sure what your home or apartment needs to help keep it clean, and some are just not sure what is necessary. For those beginners shopping for their own cleaning supplies, Nadia’s House Cleaning will break down the top most used cleaning tools that you should have in your home or apartment.
 

List of Housecleaning Tools & Equipment Every Home Should Have

Cleaning Sponges – When you’re shopping for cleaning supplies start with getting a good sponge and one with double sides. One side should be a regular sponge and the other side should be more abrasive for deeper cleaning. Sponges are not just used for cleaning dishes but also do wonders in the bathroom as well. You may want to get a sponge for each room. Also make sure to clean your sponge off after every use to keep it clean as well.
All White Towels or Wash Cloths – We say all white for many reasons. They are reasonable in price and you can buy a dozen at a time in any hardware store. More importantly, they also do well with cleaning other fabrics. You will hear that you should never use a colored cloth or towel to clean a stain on the carpet or couch. This is because colored cloth can leave dye behind, discoloring and creating a bigger stain. Additionally they make great all around cleaning rags for any cleaning tasks. They are easily washed and cleaned for future use.
Window Glass Squeegees – Squeegees can be used to make window cleaning fast and they do a great job removing water not just on windows but in bathrooms as well. For those with glass showers or even tile, using a squeegee after every use helps reduce mold, and hard water build up. This makes a squeegee a must have tool for windows and bathrooms.
Microfiber Cloth – For those who like mirrors and windows to be streak free, your best chance of achieving that is by using a micro-fiber cloth to wipe down your glass.
Spray Bottles – There are so many different types of materials we bring into our living spaces such as glass, wood, metal and plastic. Each type of surface requires its own kind of cleaner. Therefore it helps to have a few spray bottles on hand to mix or hold your different types of cleaning solutions.
Broom, Dustpan & Mops – Most hard surfaced floors can be cleaned with a broom, dustpan and mop with the exception of a few who may require their own cleaning utensils. However for keeping your floors cleaned easily and quickly, you will need a good mop, broom and dustpan.
Vacuum – Carpets, upholstery, and rugs are not a vacuums limit. A vacuum comes with many attachments that can help clean those hard to reach areas. It can suck up dirt wherever dirt and dust can be found. A vacuum is a must have in any home even those without carpets.
Bucket & Scrub Brush – A bucket and scrub brush can help tend to stains, dirty windows, and floors with the ease. Keep two types of scrub brushes: one soft bristled and a rough bristled brush. Some areas can be damaged with too course of a brush and other times, some messes may need a tougher brush.
Toothbrush – A toothbrush can clean those tight areas where you may need some scrubbing power. You can use an old toothbrush or get a new, one but never be without a toothbrush for cleaning those small, tight areas.
