If you are cleaning hardwood flooring you will need certain supplies. Mixing warm water with washing up liquid will do the trick to get most of the dirt up - this can be done with a mop and bucket. Once the floor is dry you can then vacuum and get all the last bits of dirt cleaned up.

Kitchen cleaning

• Oven cleaner
• Drain cleaner
• Bleach
• Floor care
• Dishwasher products
• Window cleaner
• Rubber gloves
• Cleaning cloths
• Disinfectant spray
• Scrubbing sponges
• Stainless steel cleaner
• All-purpose cleaner
• Washing up liquid
• Floor polish
• Kitchen sprays
• Degreasers
• Limescale remover

All purpose cleaner should be used on the countertops and hard surfaces around a kitchen. But if you are cleaning marble or granite sides then you are better off using only washing up liquid and warm water.

Baking soda, a sponge and a little bit of white vinegar is the perfect combination for cleaning a stainless steel sink. If you are ever unsure about using certain cleaning products such as oven cleaners you should check the manufacturer's directions on the product itself.

Bathroom cleaning

• Toilet cleaner
• All-purpose cleaner
• Bleach
• Rubber gloves
• Grout brush
• Tile cleaner
• Limescale remover
• Drain cleaner
• Washroom cleaner

When removing grout from the floor and tiles you should use a grout brush. All-purpose cleaners can be used on sinks and other hard surfaces around the bathroom.

Bedroom and living room cleaning

• Vacuum
• Duster
• Glass cleaner
• Polish

Glass cleaner is great for window cleaning. A top tip for cleaning windows is to use newspaper instead of paper towels or a cloth because it prevents streaking. A lint roller is good for delicate surfaces like pillows and an extendable duster for those hard to reach areas.

Certain things will require more delicate and special cleaning. You should consider using these products below:

• Wood furniture - get yourself some Wood Cleaner that is suitable for all wood surfaces. Easy to wipe off, it will remove all ingrained dirt. Such as Room Care R4 Furniture Polish.
• Windows - You will need some high quality window and glass cleaner for streak free and clear windows, try Evans Clear Window & Glass Cleaner.
• Grill - Suma Grill D9 Oven & Grill Cleaner removes even heavily carbonised soil, can be used on ovens, grills and diluted for cleaning out fryers.
• Carpets - Hygieguard Carpet Extraction Shampoo will help you fresh and remove stains from any carpet.
