My current cleaner is always reliable and her cleaning is of a high standard. She has continued to clean while “Lock Down” was on but we kept in touch by text to check that both she and my husband and I were all still well before she came to our home. Joyce keeps her distance and we think our arrangement works well for us all. Many thanks.

-Mr and Mrs D – Southwater

I have been very pleased with the service I have received from Cleanhome especially from Roger. In the last few weeks his emails have shown how much he cares about both his clients and his cleaners. I am very glad to have my lovely cleaner Linda back again.

-Mrs B – Patcham

Two cleans in we are very happy with our cleaner. She has turned up each time when she said she would, and has done a thorough and professional job. The poor girl didn’t hesitate to carry out the clean, even when I forgot to leave her payment on the second occasion!

Cleaning your Barbecue with Natural Cleaning Products – Our Detailed Guide…

 

Cleaning your barbecue with natural cleaning products - our detailed guide by Cleanhome Sussex

Using natural cleaning products to clean your barbecue is an eco-friendly and effective way to maintain its performance and ensure safe and delicious food. Here’s a detailed guide for barbecue cleaning with natural ingredients: –

1. Gather Your Supplies

Before you begin, gather the necessary supplies:

  • White vinegar
  • Bicarbonate of soda
  • Lemon juice
  • Olive oil
  • A grill brush with stiff bristles or a scraper
  • A sponge or cloth
  • A bucket
  • A spray bottle
  • A garden hose

2. Pre-Cleaning Steps

Turn Off and Disconnect – Ensure your barbecue is completely off and disconnected from any power or gas source. For charcoal barbecues, make sure the coals are fully extinguished and cool.

Remove Grates and Parts – Take out the grill grates and other removable parts like the drip tray. Soak these parts in a bucket filled with a mixture of warm water, white vinegar, and lemon juice to help break down grease and food debris.

3. Cleaning the Grates and Parts

Scrubbing the Grates – After soaking for about 15-30 minutes, create a paste using bicarbonate of soda and water. Apply this paste to the grill grates and use a grill brush or scraper to scrub off the residue. Bicarbonate of soda is a natural abrasive that effectively removes stubborn spots without harsh chemicals.

Cleaning the Drip Tray – Empty the drip tray and scrape off any solid debris. Wash it thoroughly with the vinegar and lemon juice solution. The acidity of the vinegar and lemon juice helps to cut through grease and sanitise the surface.

4. Cleaning the Interior

Scrape and Brush – Using a grill brush or scraper, clean the inside of the barbecue lid and walls. Pay attention to the edges where grease tends to accumulate. For gas barbecues, ensure the burners are free of blockages by brushing them gently.

Natural Degreaser Spray – Fill a spray bottle with a 50/50 solution of white vinegar and water. Spray this solution generously inside the barbecue, focusing on greasy areas. Let it sit for a few minutes, then scrub with a brush or sponge.

5. Washing and Rinsing

Lemon Juice and Water – Mix equal parts lemon juice and water in a bucket. Use a sponge or cloth to wash the interior and exterior of the barbecue with this solution. Lemon juice is a natural disinfectant and leaves a pleasant scent.

Rinse Thoroughly – Rinse all parts and surfaces with a garden hose.

6. Drying and Reassembly

Dry Completely – Allow all parts to air dry completely or use a clean cloth to dry them. This step is crucial to prevent rust, especially on metal parts.

Reassemble the Barbecue – Once everything is dry, reassemble the barbecue. Make sure all parts are correctly placed and secure.

7. Regular Maintenance Tips

Post-Cooking Clean – After each use, while the barbecue is still warm, brush the grates to remove any remaining food particles which makes deep cleaning easier and maintains the barbecue’s efficiency.

Olive Oil Coat – To prevent rust and make future cleaning easier, lightly coat the grill grates with olive oil using a cloth. This natural oil is food-safe and helps protect the metal.

Cover Your Barbecue – When not in use, cover your barbecue to protect it from the elements. A good quality cover prevents dust, debris, and moisture from accumulating.

Check Gas Lines and Burners – For gas barbecues, periodically check the gas lines and burners for any signs of wear or blockages.

By using natural cleaning products, you’ll keep your barbecue in excellent condition while being kind to the environment. This approach ensures a safe, chemical-free grilling experience throughout the summer. Happy barbecuing!

Bespoke Service

We are not happy until you are! Your cleaner will usually tailor their services to fit exactly with your requirements, including spring cleaning and ironing.

Peace of Mind

Only 1 in 50 applicants makes it on to our carefully screened database. We interview them twice, visit them in their own homes and take up at least two references. And if they still subsequently don't measure up to your standards, we will send you someone who does.

Personal Cleaner

We don't operate in teams, and therefore you get the same cleaner every week. This is good because you develop a relationship with your cleaner. We have some clients who have had the same cleaner for years and years - and that's what we want for you.

COVID-19 5th January Update

 

Just to let you know we are open for business as usual and you can continue to have your cleaner clean your house.

The government has made it clear that cleaners are still permitted to work inside peoples' homes as long as Government Guidelines on social distancing and staying safe are followed (see below). In summary:

You can be outside of your home for work purposes where your place of work remains open and where you cannot work from home, including if your job involves working in other people's homes.

The full text can be found here New National Restrictions from 5 January (in England; there are similar texts available for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland). Specifically relating to cleaners, the guidance continues: 'This guidance applies to those working in, visiting or delivering to home environments. These include, but are not limited to, people working in the following areas:

  • 'This can include work in other people's homes where necessary - for example, for nannies, cleaners, social care workers providing support to children and families, or tradespeople (this is not an exhaustive list)'

Note this guidance is for people who are fit and well, and is dependent on the following social distancing guidelines being followed:

  • No work should be carried out in a household where people are isolating or where an individual is being shielded.
  • The cleaners can continue work, providing that they are well and have no symptoms. No work should be carried out by a cleaner who has coronavirus symptoms, however mild, or when someone in their own household has symptoms.
  • No work should be carried out in a household where any occupants are clinically extremely vulnerable to coronavirus, or households with a possible or confirmed case of coronavirus.
  • Whilst in the house. a cleaner should maintain a safe distance of at least two metres from any household occupant at all times, and ensure good ventilation in the area where they are working, including opening the window.
  • Upon entering the home, cleaners should wash their hands using soap and water for 20 seconds.
  • Cleaners should wash their hands regularly, particularly after blowing their nose, sneezing or coughing, and when leaving the property.

The good news with regard to cleaning is that the cleaners can social distance from their clients very easily, and we would advise that, if you are at home when they are there, that you remain in a separate room to your cleaner.

If you are happy to adhere to the government guidelines - and if your cleaner has not been in touch already - then please just call the office and we will ensure that your cleaning continues.

Best regards
