As the holiday celebrations fade into the post-festive lull in January and February, there’s a unique opportunity to slow down and reassess - like a rejuvenating ritual that’ll prepare us for the coming year.
Just as we need to take a breather before diving into our plans for this year, your properties require the same rejuvenation in the form of deep cleaning. We at Opago believe that properties for rent should do 2 to 3 deep cleans every year. The quiet time after the holidays is the perfect time to schedule the first deep clean of your properties.
Our deep cleaning services offer a complete package of services that’ll breathe new life into your rental properties. What we offer goes beyond a typical cleaning routine. We’ll make sure that your properties are back to their pristine standards before the surge of guests and residents in the coming summer season.
What is Deep Cleaning?
Deep cleaning involves a more meticulous and thorough process of cleaning a property. It’s a strategic practice that’ll maintain and even improve the premium standards of a rental property. Compared to regular cleaning routines, deep cleaning involves the following processes:
- Intensive cleaning. This aims to reach areas that are often neglected like areas behind furniture, under the appliance or inside cabinets. It’s not just cleaning but sanitising and disinfecting the property as well.
- Refreshing furniture and spaces. This includes cleaning tasks for upholstery. This gives the property a fresh feel and inviting vibe.
- Eliminating residues. This pays close attention to odours, grime, stains and residues that may have lingered. The focus areas would be the kitchen and bathroom - but it also applies to other areas in the property.
- Maintenance check. This involves the inspection of the property for damages that need to be repaired. As the cleaner goes through every area of the property, they’ll also check for preventive maintenance and repairs that can be done immediately.
Opago’s Deep Clean service offers you a chance to invest in the readiness of your rental properties. As the days lengthen and the summer season approaches, your property will radiate freshness that will attract tenants and guests from all walks of life.
The Benefits of Deep Cleaning Rental Properties
The benefits offered by deep cleaning rental properties are numerous. It goes beyond the visual appeal. It’s also about preserving the value of your property and making sure that it won’t compromise the health and safety of your tenants and guests.
Here’s a deeper discussion of the short and long-term benefits that your property will enjoy through deep cleaning.
Improves property appeal
The most evident benefit of deep cleaning is it enhances the visual appeal of your property. It’s not just about being clean. It’s about creating an environment wherein people feel welcomed. It’s about preparing your space so it captivates guests as they come in.
There’s nothing like the clean feel of a property that makes people feel right at home. The gleaming floors, spotless windows and sparkly clean counter and furniture contribute to bringing out the beauty of a property.
Preserves property value
The condition of a property influences its value. So if you want to preserve and even improve the value of your property, you have to invest in cleaning and maintaining it.
Conducting regular deep cleaning is a proactive way of doing this. It can’t stop the natural wear and tear of your property, but it can slow it down. As the property is cleaned, potential damages can be spotted and dealt with before it becomes a full-blown problem. This would minimise the cost of your property’s upkeep and it can contribute to the longevity of its premium standards.
Protects health and safety
Keeping a property clean is an effective way of protecting the health and safety of the people who will stay in it. Deep cleaning plays a role in eliminating dust mites, allergens and potential health hazards.
For instance, the carpet catches all the dead skin cells that the human body discards every day. If it is cleaned, sanitised and disinfected regularly, it won’t have the chance to become a breeding ground for dust mites and allergens.
This also means the property will be protected from any form of infestation. Pests won’t have the chance to hide in dark, damp and dirty areas on the property. It can also eliminate moulds and mildew.
Leads to positive guest experience
All these benefits will lead to a positive guest experience. The cleanliness, visual appeal and overall ambience will contribute to an impressive and memorable experience. For short-term rentals, this is good news because it’ll encourage high ratings and positive reviews.
Accumulating positive feedback will increase the popularity of your rental property - thereby attracting more guests. This will increase your occupancy rates and maximise your rental income.
