To effectively clean fine dust after construction, start by dusting high surfaces like ceiling fans, walls, and window sills, allowing the dust to settle. Then, use a vacuum with a HEPA filter on all surfaces, including furniture, carpets, and floors, making a second pass for thoroughness. Follow up by mopping hard surfaces with a damp mop to capture any lingering particles. It's also important to clean appliances, vacuum HVAC returns and supply vents, and replace the air filters. Properly ventilate the home to help clear out remaining dust, and avoid sweeping, which can spread the dust around.

How often you clean a bathroom depends on how often you use it and how many people are in your home. In general, a bathroom should be cleaned once per week or every other week. But a bathroom deep-clean done at least every two weeks allows you to keep bacteria and mildew away.

When you deep clean your washing machine, using hot water is the best practice since it’s more effective than cold water at killing various types of bacteria and viruses. Plus, hot water tends to break down soap residue more efficiently.

This depends on the type of paint you used in the first place. For oil-based paints, the fastest way to clean the walls is to mix a solution in a bucket of warm water, one teaspoon of dishwashing liquid and a ½ teaspoon of distilled white vinegar. Use a microfiber cloth to wipe the walls down.

For latex-based paints, try to avoid water as much as possible. Instead, go the dry cleaning route and start with a vacuum. You’d be surprised how well a powerful vacuum can work on walls. After that, go in with a dry sponge.
