The History and Tradition of Spring Cleaning

We’ve all heard the phrase ‘spring cleaning’, but do we actually know where the phrase comes from? Why ‘Spring’ cleaning…? Interestingly enough, the concept of Spring Cleaning actually has a rich and long-standing history, spanning numerous continents, cultures and religious influences.

Modern Day Spring Cleaning

Nowadays, spring cleaning is a phrase often used to describe a thorough one-off cleaning of the home, regardless of the season – though often still executed during the Spring time following what can be a gloomy winter, and in anticipation for the summer holidays!

we aim to assist you with your ‘spring cleaning’ (inspired by any traditions, if any at all) by providing a professional spring-cleaning service, at an affordable price. Let’s face it, spring cleaning is almost always viewed as a hassle, and is often required when your time and effort could be best used elsewhere – such as preparing for holidays or guests!

Allow us to take the hassle out of your hands, with quick, efficient and affordable spring-cleaning services, that can be scheduled around your availability, to keep your hands free for other important tasks. Our experienced spring cleaners guarantee a quality clean, and can come equipped with all the top quality products to deliver unbeatable results.

At DEFINITE CLEAN, we offer convenient recurring services on a weekly, biweekly (every 2 weeks) and monthly (every 4 weeks) schedule. Biweekly is by far our most popular service. It is the perfect amount of space between cleanings to help keep the house maintained.

See below our standard guidelines for the cleaning:

DEFINITE CLEAN can be your number one choice for carpet cleaning. We also handle rugs and upholstery. We offer a full range of cleaning services to keep your looking beautiful while giving you the best customer care in the industry.

We provide both commercial and residential carpet cleaning to make sure your carpet is clean for either your home or business. Regular cleaning and maintenance is an essential task to keep your carpet lovely and long lasting. Especially for a business. A fine looking carpet can send a statement of professionalism and even warmth to visitors to your office and place of business. First we start with a pre-inspection to see what needs to be done. Next we pre condition the carpet to get dirt, soil and other materials loose for better extraction. We use steam cleaning and low moisture encapsulation to clean gently clean & rinse your carpet. The process won’t leave your carpet soaking wet. It will be a little damp with the fibers open & able to breathe. For the final step we will walk through to find surviving stains or spots for treatment.

For upholstery, we offer spot & stain removal, including pet urine, and both steam or dry cleaning for chairs and sofas to keep them pristine and remove harmful allergens and bacteria. We clean sofas made from leather, linen, cotton and wool and even perform leather sofa revival.

DEFINITE CLEAN Window Cleaning is committed to helping you look your best. Whether it’s your home or business, your windows are one of the first things a visitor notices. But the benefits for the occupants go beyond simple aesthetics. Increasing the penetration of natural light promotes both a healthier and more inviting environment for employees and visitors. When considering the image you are projecting, don’t overlook your windows.
Clean windows provide a more attractive appearance for potential clients or customers, and create a more pleasant environment for employees. Most business owners are aware how much the elements, including weather, insects, birds, traffic, and even pedestrians can affect the appearance of their windows. In addition, dust and smoke can rapidly build up on the inside of the glass.

Whatever your type of property, we provide a professional, reliable and efficient commercial window cleaning service to suit.

We have many clients including

Here at DEFINITE CLEAN we recommend you have your windows cleaned every 4 weeks. In our experience this is the optimum frequency in terms of keeping your window clean all year round as well as getting the best value for money. We find having offered weekly , every 2 weekly and every 4 weekly cleans but is that 4 weekly is the preferred option of our customers. However if you live in a high traffic area or otherwise would like your windows cleaning more regular the standard weekly option is available.
