Overlooked Areas in Your Home That Are Dirtier Than You Think

You vacuum the floors, wipe down the counters, and keep your bathroom spotless — but what about the hidden spots collecting dust, grime, and bacteria right under your nose? At Glitz & Gleam, we’ve seen it all. Here are five commonly missed areas that could probably use a little extra attention:

1. Light Switches & Door Handles

These are some of the most-touched surfaces in your home, yet they’re often forgotten during regular cleaning. A quick disinfectant wipe goes a long way in keeping germs at bay.

2. Baseboards

They collect dust, pet hair, and dirt faster than you’d expect — especially in high-traffic areas. Over time, dirty baseboards can make an otherwise clean room look dingy.

3. Ceiling Fans

Out of sight, out of mind — until you turn them on and send dust flying everywhere. Regular wet-wiping keeps air quality cleaner and allergens lower.

4. Under Appliances

Crumbs, grease, and mystery gunk love to hide underneath your oven or fridge. A deep clean can uncover (and remove) years of buildup.

5. Upholstery & Cushions

Your couch might look clean, but it’s likely housing dust mites, body oils, and more. A monthly vacuum and occasional deep clean make a big difference in both freshness and longevity.

Final Thoughts

Cleaning isn’t just about what you see — it’s about what you don’t. That’s why our Deep Cleaning and Premium Shine Packages are designed to go beyond the basics and give your home the detail it deserves.
