17th June 2021
The Right Equipment
You can’t expect to blindly clean your conservatory with random equipment and materials. This valuable asset requires the right equipment to get the job done efficiently. There are special conservatory ladders that you need to get a hold of. They are easy to use and make the roof easily accessible.
You should place this lightweight ladder on a solid surface. Getting a spotter to help you with the materials can be a smart thing to do. You can also hire these ladders from hardware shops instead of buying them.
To clean your roof, you will need telescopic brushes. These cleaning brushes are perfect for the job due to their extendable nature. You can easily reach all the easy and tough spots. A telescopic pole, which has a squeegee and brush attachment on both sides, will help treat smearing.
Make sure to use both cloth and sponges for cleaning the door. Also, you can buy the cleaning solution specially meant for the conservatory from the tool shop or create your DIY solution. Make sure to use a proper bucket for the solution.
How To Clean It
The key to cleaning your conservatory is to start from the top and work your way towards the bottom. If you do the opposite, then you will end up doing twice the work. It will help you manage time and also save elbow grease. Plus, the water trickling down will help in lubricating the stubborn residues. You should also clean the gutters of your conservatory. Your gutter ends up as a home for insects, debris, critters, and stubborn dirt.
So, it is best to clear off all the clogging present in your gutter. The good thing is to clean your gutter twice a year. They don’t require constant maintenance. The interior of your conservatory is just as important as your exterior. If you neglect cleaning, you are inviting mold and mildew because they love moist surroundings, especially under poor ventilation.
You should also make it a habit to clean your windowsills and window frames as often as you can. If you have regular cleanings, then it will save you from heavy interior cleaning in the future due to the build-up of dirt. It will help you save both time and money. Also, avoid standing on top of your conservatory’s roof at all costs. They are delicate and different from your regular house roof.
You should use a good quality sponge and warm soapy for cleaning your conservatory inside out. It will create streak marks that are unsightly on your window panes. The frames should be the first thing to clean, and then you can move to the window glass. It will prevent the residues from trickling down on your window panes that are freshly cleaned.
For loosening the stubborn debris, you can use a paintbrush or a duster present around the window frame. After cleaning the frames, start wiping them and utilise a hoover for picking up the debris falling on the floor. You can put an old towel below before cleaning to collect all the debris that falls. It will help protect your flooring during the process.
