Deep Cleaning Steps

Here's my method for deep cleaning stairs - just in case you are looking for a good method to deep clean your stairs.  It's a bit labor intensive, but helpful for getting your stairs in tip-top shape a few times a year.

Tools necessary:

vacuum cleaner and attachments

microfiber cloth

wood cleaning solution

Step 1: Use the crevice tool attached to the hose to get in the crease of the carpet

Step 2: Use the power brush tool (if you have one) to clean all carpeted surfaces - this works really well on the edges of the carpet where it meets the wood

Step 3: Vacuum flat surfaces with the vacuum

Step 4: Using a microfiber cloth and choice of wood cleaner or polish 

(Mrs. Jones' Soapbox - Shine is what I use)

 wipe down the handrails first and then any other wood surfaces
