💡 Pro Tips from CleanFix Pro Ottawa

  • ⏱️ Start top to bottom. Always clean ceilings, fans and shelves before floors — dust falls down.
  • 🧴 Let products work. Spray bathroom and kitchen surfaces first, let sit 5 minutes, then scrub. Saves effort.
  • 🪣 One room at a time. Don't jump between rooms — finish one completely before moving to the next.
  • 📦 Declutter before cleaning. Donate or trash items you haven't used since last spring before you clean around them.
  • 🌿 Use eco-friendly products. Especially important in Ottawa homes with children and pets. Vinegar + baking soda handles most tasks.
