Spring Clean Like a Pro:Top Tips for a Spotless Home over The May Bank Holidays


Read Full ARTICLE here:

Are you tired of living in a cluttered and disorganised home? You're not alone. As a busy estate agent for the past 15 years with two kids and a husband, I know firsthand how important it is to keep your home organised. Not only does it make day-to-day life more manageable, but it can also help when it comes time to sell your home. With spring in full swing, now is the perfect time to tackle the clutter and start fresh. It's easy to accumulate belongings over time, and before you know it, your home is overflowing with things you no longer need or use. But with a little determination and effort, you can transform your home into a more organised and inviting space.

Keeping a house clean with a family is a constant challenge, but it's worth the effort! - Sarah Alexander

Here are some tips to get you started:

1.Start with a Plan

Before you dive into decluttering and organising, it's essential to have a plan in place. Decide which rooms you want to tackle first and make a list of the areas that need the most attention. Setting clear goals and timelines will help you stay focused and motivated.

2. Declutter Like a Pro

Decluttering is the first step towards organising your home. Be ruthless when it comes to getting rid of things you no longer need or use. Donate or sell items that are still in good condition and toss anything that's broken or beyond repair. There are few charity shops located on George Lane, who would welcome the donations.

3. Group Similar Items Together

Once you've decluttered, group similar items together to make it easier to find and access them. Store kitchen utensils in one drawer, and keep all your cleaning supplies in one cupboard. This will help you stay organised and save time when you need to find something.

4. Create Storage Solutions

Invest in storage solutions that will help you keep your home organised. Shelving, baskets, and drawer organisers are all great options to maximise your space and keep things in order.

6. Cleaning Routine

Keeping your home organised requires a regular cleaning routine. Make a schedule to tackle tasks such as dusting, vacuuming, and washing floors on a regular basis. This will help you maintain a clean and tidy home.

Looking to sell your home?

While certain market factors may be beyond your control, implementing these strategies can help you tilt the odds in your favour.

One key aspect is enhancing your home's curb appeal. Making a good first impression is crucial, so consider sprucing up the exterior. Additionally, taking care of any necessary repairs, such as repairing tiles, or touching up paint, can greatly impact potential buyers' perception of your home. Another effective strategy is staging your home. By using the tips above and arranging your home in a way that highlights its best features, you can create a welcoming atmosphere that showcases your home's full potential.
