We all know window blinds in Australia are great for keeping out heat and light but unfortunately, they can also be good at collecting dust and possibly even stains. You shouldn’t worry however, because whether you have roller blinds, venetians, verticals or romans, you can keep them looking fantastic and in perfect working order by having a very simple cleaning and maintenance routine.
Knowing how to best clean your blinds can be confusing. Whether they are fabric blinds, wooden or another material, different blinds can have different cleaning methods. Below are some general cleaning tips to keep in mind regardless of what type of blinds you have.
- Firstly, it’s important to try and not let moisture settle on your blinds as this can lead to mould build up, which is even harder to remove.
- Secondly, when wiping your blinds use a damp, clean cloth rather than something overly moistened. This way you’ll have more grip on the blinds and be able to remove debris and dirt more efficiently.
- Finally, it’s ideal to clean your blinds lightly once a week, while a deeper and more detailed clean should be done once a month. This will help keep them in their prime condition.
We know this can sound like a bit of work, but it will pay off in the long run! To help you, we’ve put together some handy cleaning hints for your blinds below.
