Whether your home is new or old, there will always be cleaning and repair tasks that need to be kept up with.

Dirt and water, mold and mildew, insects and rodents can all be damaging to furniture, surfaces such as floors, cabinets, and countertops, walls, and ceilings, windows, doors, and siding.

Cleaning should be part of daily, weekly, or seasonal maintenance.

There are thousands of products and cleaning tools on the market to address all home cleaning needs. However, many are not necessary and many can be dangerous to use.

Green Choices for cleaning products can often do the same job with little to no danger to individuals and pets living in the home.

Repairs range from an annoying squeaky door to rotting wood that allows water to enter the home.

Redecorating is also fun and sometimes necessary.

When is redecorating necessary? When infants, elderly, or disabled persons become part of the family, redecorating may be necessary for safety reasons.
