Whether you are renting or buying a house, move-in cleaning is a big necessity. No matter how well-cleaned the house is seen from the outside, it is likely that there may be dirt, grime and dust that are left lying in particular areas of your new house. Before you really settle in, you will want to take care of these nuisances. Check out a list of tips or “must-dos” before moving into a new house.
Double Check the Place
The first thing to do before moving into a new house is to get to know your place inside out. Check each and every room for visible signs of damage, especially from water or fire. Make sure that there are no water leaks of any kind, and if you have a leaking problem, then you will need to localize and fix it.
Change the Locks on the Doors
When you get your new house keys, change the locks as soon as possible because you don’t know who else has keys to your home! Check all the windows and doors and make sure they are locked securely. Install smoke detectors in every room and provide at least one functional fire extinguisher per floor. Install a burglar alarm, especially if your home is situated in a neighbourhood with a relatively “suspicious” reputation.
Give your New House a Deep Clean
When the house is empty, every mark and flaw becomes extremely visible. Take into consideration the investment of high-quality cleaning products and turn your house into a fresh and welcoming home. Make your house dust-free, polished and shiny by vacuuming your carpets, mopping floors, washing windows and arranging the furniture perfectly and neatly. If you only have limited time to clean, consider hiring professional cleaners. They can save you time and money as cleaning products are already provided in the service at a higher productivity rate.
Paint all the Walls and Ceilings
If you find that the walls and ceilings are damaged with visible cracks, holes and other defects, then this can be an extremely time-consuming task. You may need to hire professionals who know how to best handle these tasks. In doing so, you’re taking responsibility into reducing safety hazards, creating a risk-free home environment, and saving costs in case of repeating repairs.
Update Home Tech
Before moving into your new home, you must make sure that you have easy access to every spot in your home. It would also be the best time to start planning various instalments to ensure that all the elements needed in your new place are installed. In addition to that, don’t forget to check all light fixtures, and install/update all relevant home technologies before moving in.
