    Awesome to see that you included so much detail for the outside of your home. That often gets overlooked! Pressure washing siding, cleaning windows inside and out, cleaning the gutters – all things that can really make your home look so much nice, and also keep up on maintenance. – Caitlin

    SO even though I own a pressure washing company there are several cleaning tasks I am just not good at. For example, when it comes to “organizing” – I always opt for throwing everything away and just starting over. I guess like a “clean slate” like pressure washing!

    Good mention of the door handles, its so easy to over look things like that, thanks! Very detailed list you compiled for inside and outside the house. We cut back on a cleaning service years ago so resources like this are great. We do use help for some outdoor projects, like gutter cleaning because Im afraid of heights LOL I didnt know companies will come out just to clean gutters, we use http://guttermanservices.com/gutters/
