Effective wall maintenance tips for your home
"Home maintenance is one of the major responsibilities taken to maintain the integrity of your home."
Home maintenance is one of the major responsibilities taken to maintain the integrity of your home. This process includes maintaining the parts of a home from walls to roofing, window upgrades, furnace upgrade, and exterior painting.
Here are a few tips on how one can maintain their walls:
Remove dust or dirt from walls
The first and easy tip for maintaining your wall is to dust it to keep it clean.
Keeping your walls clean not only cuts down on dust/ dirt in your house but also makes your wall look better and helps to keep the paint in a good condition.
It also prevents the wall from surface deterioration& indoor air pollution. Use a feather duster or dry cloth to remove dust and dry dirt from the surface.
The easiest way to get rid of the dust, dirt, and cobwebs that shorten the life of your paint is to use a cloth on a long-handled broom over your walls every month.
Don’t leave out the ceilings because due to gravity, some airborne dust collects there, making them dirty.
Clean and remove stains from walls
The cleaning of the walls depends on the type of paint used & the wall texture.
While cleaning the walls, avoid rubbing too hard on the wall as you might create a stain or remove the paint texture on the wall and be careful.
Make use of water and a clean sponge to clean the wall. Wash wall tiles in the kitchen and bathroom as per their condition.
Remove the residues of cooking and steamy showers by washing them at least once every month and also clean the painted surface of the walls as per their condition.
Dry the wall with an old towel.
Consider repainting the wall
Repainting will give your space outstanding freshness and elegance.
Consider repainting your old and worn-out walls to restore their appeal.
An additional tip when painting is to always maintain a specific grade depending on your home’s exterior and interior.
Do not use a grade of paint meant for the interior to paint your exterior.
Get help from a professional painter in case you have a challenge deciding which paint or theme to adopt.
Whitewashing your walls
This is one of the key factors which can make your walls look fresh.
Whitewashing is not painting your walls but covering your walls with plaster of Paris.
This technique is quite economical and hygienic and gives your walls a new look.
The mixture used for whitewashing the walls is lime and water and there is a certain method that should be followed to create this mixture and apply it to the wall.
You can make use of a large paintbrush to apply a thick coat over the walls.
Odor Control
It is not reasonable, nor entirely possible, to change your life around to prevent your walls from absorbing everyday odors like cooking grease, smoke, pets, and more.
But you can implement some strategies to help abate the absorption of such smells.
For starters, you can choose a paint that is formulated to retain fewer odors.
Otherwise, it is effective to simply clean your walls periodically.
