With longer days, warmer weather, and outdoor fun on the horizon, May is the perfect time to get your home summer-ready. Whether you’re planning backyard barbecues or expecting houseguests, a clean and refreshed home sets the stage for a relaxing and enjoyable season.
At Carvalho’s Cleaning, we’re here to help you prep your space from top to bottom—inside and out—so you can enjoy a stress-free start to summer.
Summer Cleaning Starts with the Right Areas
Before the heat and humidity kick in, focus on areas that tend to need extra care as the seasons change:
-
Windows and Window Screens
- Clean windows let in more natural light and instantly brighten up your space. Don’t forget to wipe down sills and screens, which collect dust and pollen.
-
Patios, Decks, and Outdoor Furniture
- Clear away any debris, hose down outdoor surfaces, and clean furniture so everything is ready for outdoor lounging or entertaining.
-
Guest Bedrooms and Bathrooms
- If you’re expecting visitors this summer, give guest rooms a refresh. Wash linens, vacuum floors, and add small touches like fresh towels or flowers to make the space feel welcoming.
Swap Out Seasonal Decor and Organize
Transition your home from cozy winter vibes to light, airy summer energy.
- Switch Bedding and Textiles: Replace heavy blankets and flannel sheets with lighter fabrics like cotton or linen.
- Pack Away Winter Gear: Store coats, boots, and holiday décor to free up space and reduce visual clutter.
- Declutter Common Areas: Clear off surfaces and refresh entryways and living areas with simple, summery accents like fresh greenery or bright colors.
Freshen Up the Air as the Weather Heats Up
Warmer months often bring stagnant indoor air, especially if you’re using the AC.
- Clean Air Vents and Replace Filters: This helps reduce allergens and improves indoor air quality.
- Let Fresh Air In: On breezy days, open windows to ventilate your home.
- Use Natural Scents: Simmer lemon slices and herbs on the stove or use essential oils like eucalyptus or lavender for a fresh summer scent.
