How Often Should You Have Your Blinds Professionally Cleaned?
Blinds are one aspect of the home that can easily get forgotten about. After all, you probably only adjust them twice a day and they don’t easily show dirt and dust.
However, because they are close to windows, they can easily accumulate pollen from outdoors, which can build up and trigger allergic reactions. Plus, like any surface in the home, they suffer from just as much grime and germs that need regular cleaning.
To make sure hidden dirt is gone and to ensure your blinds continue looking their best, you should consider having them professionally cleaned.
In this blog, we run down the key things you need to know, including how often you should have your blinds cleaned.
How Often Should You Clean Your Blinds?
In general, you should consider dusting or wiping your blinds at least once a month to get rid of the general build-up of dust. This can easily be done alongside your usual cleaning routine, such as after vacuuming.
If there has been a spillage that has affected the blinds, or they are based in the kitchen, you may want to clean them more often to prevent grease build-up. You can use a damp cloth for this.
Why Should I Have My Blinds Professionally Cleaned?
Cleaning yourself is only effective to a certain point when it comes to eliminating dust, pet hair, grease, pollen and dirt from your blinds. For a guaranteed deep clean, getting your blinds professionally cleaned is the best option.
This is far more hygienic as well as convenient for you; the blinds will be safely removed and cleaned using ultrasonic technology that ensures they are completely sanitised and fresh. This means your blinds are kept in top condition, saving you the hassle of replacing them and indeed worrying about cleaning them yourself.
How Often Should You Have Your Blinds Professionally Cleaned?
The answer to this question depends on a few factors. Are your blinds subject to a lot of dirt and grime, for example, in the kitchen? If so, they may require more regular professional cleaning than less used living room blinds.
Do you want a regular service to keep them bright and fresh all year round? This could be as regular as every three months if you see fit. Or, if you want a deep clean to get rid of a stain or hidden dirt, this could be a once-a-year treatment. On average, we recommend every six months for a deep clean.
