How to Maintain an Elegant White Condo

Nothing says clean and elegant than a pure white condo unit. This is why even though this is the hardest color to maintain, many strive to give a shot. When done properly, a pure white condo can astound any crowd and can give the right amount of wow-factor that everybody will sure to envy you for.

Tips for creating a white condo can be easy-peasy, it is maintaining the clear, light aura that makes the difference. Here are some ways in which you can keep the whiteness of your living space in top notch condition.

Wash/clean your walls

This might be a surprise for most but walls need some TLC too! But before you get that bucket and brush, you must first try to remember what type of paint your contractors painted the walls with. If the paint is oil-based then an all-purpose cleaner and some warm water ought to do it.

Water-based paints are only dangerous to clean if not fully cured so schedule your wall cleaning when you had at least live in the house for a couple of months. Wallpapers, on the other hand, are only safe to clean if waterproof.

De-clutter your space

Or do not buy things that might look pretty but you really don’t need. The beauty of a white space is that it looks bigger than it actually is. But if you are not yet willing to let go of your things, there are certain techniques on how to line up your things and accessories without looking like you are one of those unfortunate hoarders.

Have a scheduled cleaning day

You can do this in conjunction with tip#1. Have a regular weekly cleaning day so you won’t get shock with the sheer amount of work you’ll need to do by the time you have to do some serious spring cleaning.

Schedule a spring cleaning

You knew this was coming. You really should set a whole day to give your space some good scrubbing, vacuuming, and dusting to keep the whiteness in pristine condition.

There is really no sorcery or magic involved when it comes to maintaining your white condo spotless clean. Just some serious elbow-grease and hard work are needed to make your living space looking as good as when you first move in.

Just remember to follow these guidelines and you will never have to face the shame of living in a ‘used to be white but now it’s a different shade of white’ condo.
