Grout mold and mildew remover
When cleaning a bathroom, be sure to pay particular attention to grout that can harbor mold or mildew if not properly maintained! If mildew does start to creep up on you, try cleaning with a dilute of bleach and water.

Why Choose Polished to Perfection Cleaning, LLC
Quality, Professional Bio-Friendly House Cleaning
Our first Cleaning Visit…Why is it different? Why is it necessary? Why does it cost more?
A NECESSARY PROCEDURE
It would be virtually impossible for us to “skip” our standard first-time cleaning routine and try to carry on maintaining your home in a satisfactorily clean fashion. There’s a big difference between “old dirt” and “new dirt”. If we don’t get rid of the old dirt, no matter how hard we try, simply removing the new dirt isn’t going to make things look sparkling fresh and clean.
ON OUR FIRST VISIT
Before we can even begin to perform routine weekly or bi-weekly maintenance cleaning on a home, there are usually a variety of “first-time” tasks that require extra attention on our first visit. Our first cleaning visit is more like a spring-cleaning, or what we call a heavy, deep cleaning. In fact, It’s not uncommon for our teams to spend from four to eight times longer on a first-time cleaning than it takes us on regular, repeat maintenance visits. While the situation in every home is unique and different, following are some examples of what we mean.
BATHROOMS
It is not unusual for us to spend as much time cleaning one bathroom on our first visit as it takes to clean the entire home on subsequent visits. For example, if we don’t spend the time and effort usually needed to get shower doors, shower-door tracks, shower and bathtub surfaces deep-cleaned, these objects will never look clean no matter how often we come; we do our best to get these surfaces back to “ground zero”.
KITCHEN
Kitchen cabinets, counter tops and appliances often require extra attention on our first visit. Grease, fingerprints and other dirt seem to make its way through everyone’s home and gravitate toward the kitchen (and seems to think that the top of the fridge is an especially good place to hide!). It doesn’t take long for kitchen dust to become impregnated with grease~ certainly a lot more difficult to clean then a week’s accumulation of ordinary surface dust.
ALL ROOMS
The amount of time and effort required to bring all rooms back to ground zero depends on many factors. Most of our clients hire us because they simply don’t have time to clean with more than a “lick-and-a-promise”. Perhaps no one has vacuumed behind or beneath the sofa for months (and moving furniture to clean isn’t as easy for one person as it is for a team of cleaners). Bookshelves, baseboards, windowsills, or other furnishings and fixtures often require an extra initial “TLC”.

Marble Stains
Marble Stains
Marble can be cleaned using warm, sudsy water or a solution of borax and water. Thoroughly rinse and buff dry.
To remove stains from marble, make a paste of baking soda and bleach and cover the stain with the paste. Cover the paste with a damp cloth, leave overnight, then wet down and scrape off residue. Rinse thoroughly.
