Can you use cleaning wipes on baseboards?

• <div><p>To determine whether you can use cleaning wipes on baseboards, figure out if your <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/stained-vs-painted-trim.htm">trim and baseboards are painted or stained</a>.

Q: What's the difference between soap scum and mildew?

• <div><p>You&rsquo;ll often find mildew and soap scum in the same place, but they are very different substances. Mildew is a substance composed of living fungi, whereas soap scum is primarily an accumulation of mineral deposits. Mildew needs chronic moisture to thrive, while soap scum is unaffected by damp conditions (though it is a residue left behind by the water).</p></div>

Q: What should I avoid washing in the kitchen sink?

• <div><p>Do not clean paintbrushes or construction materials, such as grout-filled sponges, in your sink. These items can cause blockages in your pipes and lead to costly repairs.</p></div>

Q: Can I clean up after construction myself?

• <div><p>DIY is possible but labor-intensive. Professional services handle debris removal and detailed cleaning efficiently.</p></div>

Q: How do you clean an air bath?

• <div><p>Surprisingly, cleaning an air bath is almost as easy as relaxing in one. Most air baths have a self-cleaning or drying cycle to remove moisture from the inner tubing. This prevents mold and keeps the tub ready for your next soaking session. For deeper cleaning, use mild soap and a soft cloth to wipe the surfaces and periodically clean the air jets as the manufacturer recommends. </p></div>

Bath Planet and Your Home Improvement Co. came out to do our tub to shower conversions. The workmanship, install, and value over all was great! Our installer was excellent and very clean. Thank you Brady for coming out to remind us of our warranty and checking out our kitchen.

Ramon, Johnny and Tyrus did a very good job installing drain tile and sump pump in our basement. They were very friendly and communicated very well throughout the project. They left the worksite very clean when they left. Would not hesitate to use them again.

Daryl, Johnny and the rest of the crew were great. Arrived on time every morning and when they finished for the day the work site was cleaned. They even skimmed to pool to make sure there was no debris . The project took 3 1/2 days and we couldn't be happier.
