Upgrading your windows can boost your home’s energy efficiency and beauty. However, like most major home improvement projects, your home can get untidy, necessitating the need to keep everything clean. Fortunately, there are ways you can keep your home clean during and after window replacement. Check out these tips to keep in mind.
1. Plan Ahead
Planning ahead is key to ensuring cleanliness in your home throughout the window replacement project. The team should schedule the project around your cleaning regimen. This reduces disturbances and simplifies organization. To avoid damage, remove fragile or valuable items from windows before starting work.
2. Protect Your Floors and Furniture
Window replacement creates a lot of debris, so protect your floors and furnishings. Drop cloths or plastic sheets help clean up. To protect surfaces, pull furniture away from the work area or cover it.
3. Keep Dust and Debris Contained
To minimize the spread of dust and debris throughout your home during the window replacement, close doors to other rooms whenever possible. Communicate with your window replacement team about your concerns and request that they use a vacuum to clean up debris as they work.
4. Clean as You Go
During the window replacement process, it’s essential to stay on top of cleaning. Wipe down surfaces and sweep floors daily to prevent dust and debris from accumulating. Designate a specific area for disposing of debris to prevent clutter and make cleanup more manageable.
