Spring Cleaning in Edmonton: Where to Start

In Edmonton, spring cleaning starts with undoing winter — clearing road salt, gravel and sealed-in dust from entryways, then opening up the home with clean windows before working top to bottom.

Start with winter’s mess

Five-plus months of sealed windows and salty boots leave their mark. Begin at entryways and mudrooms, then windows and sills, then the hard-water film winter leaves on fixtures.

Then go top to bottom

Work down from ceiling fans and high dust to baseboards and floors so nothing resettles. A one-time deep clean is the fastest way to reset the whole home at once.
