UAE homes fight sand, AC dust and hard-water marks year-round. These quick hacks keep things under control between professional cleans — and tell you when it is smarter to book Lipslay instead.

Kitchen grease without harsh fumes
Warm water, a drop of dish soap and a microfibre cloth beat most stove splatter. For hoods and backsplashes, a baking-soda paste sits 10 minutes then wipes clean. Skip mixing bleach with anything acidic.
Bathroom limescale in hard-water cities
White vinegar on a cloth softens tap and glass marks. Rinse well and dry to slow new spots. Deep grout and glass rebuilds are better left to a booked deep clean.
AC dust between service visits
Wipe reachable vents monthly with a dry cloth. Full AC cleaning (filters, coils, drainage) needs a trained tech — book AC Cleaning before peak summer.
When to book a pro
If tidy-ups take longer than an hour, guests are coming, or you need move-in/out deep cleaning, book Home Cleaning or Deep Cleaning on Lipslay with transparent AED pricing.
