Think of it as an opportunity to make your workspace welcoming, organised and hygienic for both your employees and customers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Spring cleaning may appear to be a daunting task, however, thorough cleaning can be the perfect way to welcome the changing season and freshen up your premises. When carrying out a deep clean, it&#8217;s essential to prioritise areas frequently used by your employees and customers alongside those areas that are out of reach. As experts in specialist hygiene, here are our top cleaning tips for spring cleaning six key areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why is Spring a Good Time to Clean?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Spring cleaning is a popular tradition in the UK, presenting a perfect opportunity to refresh living spaces for the new season. Google searches show a big jump of 79% in spring cleaning interest between February and March 2025, with an increase in people seeking expert advice on effective cleaning methods. Beyond surface-level cleaning, a true spring clean will tackle neglected areas to ensure a thorough and hygienic clean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2073\" height=\"1174\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rentokil-hygiene.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/virus-cleaning-min-edited.jpg\" alt=\"touchpoint surface cleaning\" class=\"wp-image-714\" style=\"width:714px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rentokil-hygiene.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/virus-cleaning-min-edited.jpg 2073w, https:\/\/www.rentokil-hygiene.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/virus-cleaning-min-edited-300x170.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rentokil-hygiene.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/virus-cleaning-min-edited-1024x580.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.rentokil-hygiene.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/virus-cleaning-min-edited-768x435.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.rentokil-hygiene.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/virus-cleaning-min-edited-1536x870.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.rentokil-hygiene.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/virus-cleaning-min-edited-2048x1160.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2073px) 100vw, 2073px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Areas to Prioritise During a Deep Clean:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>First Impressions Matter:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Focus on entrances and reception areas as they\u2019re the first thing prospective customers and visitors see. Main passageways, hallways and porches should be cleaned effectively by vacuuming, sweeping and disinfecting the floor area. Areas just inside doors or entranceways should receive particular attention, as these are places where dirt may be tracked in from the outside via visitors&#8217; or residents\u2019 shoes. Coupled with this, you should be attentive to common touchpoints in the vicinity, such as door handles and bannisters, wiping them down with an antimicrobial cleaning product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>High frequency touchpoints<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>High frequency touchpoints are everywhere. Light switches, door handles, shared desks, and office equipment are prone to spreading germs as they will regularly be touched by many different people. Neglecting them may increase the chance of spreading viruses and illnesses. When carrying out a deep clean on your premises, you should begin by thinking about how each room is used and be sure to effectively clean all high frequency touchpoints.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Washroom cleaning<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Cleaning in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentokil-hygiene.co.uk\/washroom-deep-cleaning\/\">washrooms<\/a> requires attention to detail and thorough disinfection. Key areas include cleaning and disinfecting countertops, sinks, taps, toilet seats, handles, flush buttons, urinals, urinal troughs, shower stalls, changing room benches, lockers, floors, and walls. An extra polish on any chrome fixtures will also enhance the overall appearance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep things flowing smoothly by clearing drain clogs and blockages. This prevents nasty smells and ensures proper, free-flowing drainage. And don&#8217;t overlook your ventilation systems! Cleaning them is key for good air quality and also helps keep odours at bay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Kitchen and break areas<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>These shared spaces require extra attention. Thoroughly clean and disinfect appliance handles, control panels, countertops, sinks, and taps to prevent cross contamination and the spread of germs, ensuring a safe and healthy food preparation environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Crumbs, dirt, and dust can build-up in hidden places, such as under sofa cushions and shared seating areas. You should use a handheld vacuum cleaner or nozzle attachment to vacuum these areas and then wipe over the surfaces with an antibacterial spray.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>High-level and hard-to-reach areas<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Don`t forget those hard-to-reach spots, high shelves, door frames and under furniture need a good deep clean. Moving furniture such as chairs and cabinets away from walls so that you can clean both underneath, and around them will make a huge difference. Also, give ventilation systems some love, they are often neglected areas and should be cleaned to reduce dust circulation and to keep the air fresh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Outside Matters<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Your building\u2019s exterior is just as important as the inside. A clean exterior improves visitor experience and staff morale by creating a welcoming and professional environment. Cleaning external environments often involves using specialised techniques for removing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentokil-hygiene.co.uk\/specialist-cleaning\/graffiti-removal\/\">graffiti<\/a> from walls, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentokil-hygiene.co.uk\/specialist-cleaning\/chewing-gum-removal\/\">removing chewing gum<\/a> from pavements and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentokil-hygiene.co.uk\/specialist-disinfection\/bird-dropping-removal\/\">guano removal<\/a>. High-level cleaning equipment or cleaning at height may also be required to safely clean and disinfect effectively such as external facades, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentokil-hygiene.co.uk\/specialist-cleaning\/solar-panel-cleaning\/\">solar panels<\/a> and windows.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Benefits of Spring Cleaning<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Spring cleaning goes beyond hygiene and eliminating germs. It brings a sense of renewal and a fresh start for the premises. A thorough deep cleaning can improve air quality and remove allergens that have accumulated over time, creating a healthier and more comfortable environment. Decluttering and reorganising can boost productivity and create a more positive atmosphere. Ultimately, a refreshed space shows care for staff and customers, leaving a positive impression.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Consider Professional Commercial Cleaning Services<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While some cleaning can be DIY, for commercial businesses looking to protect customers, staff, visitors and those within their duty of care, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentokil-hygiene.co.uk\/specialist-cleaning\/\">professional services<\/a> can make a huge difference.
