Owning a vacation home in beautiful San Luis Obispo County is a dream come true. But just because it’s your getaway doesn’t mean it should be treated like an afterthought. Regular cleaning isn’t just about keeping things tidy for your next visit—it could actually increase the value of your property.
Curb appeal counts
First impressions matter. Whether you’re thinking of selling or just want to make sure your place is always at its best, keeping your vacation home clean and well-maintained is key. No one wants to walk into a dusty, cobweb-filled home—especially not potential buyers.
Prevent long-term damage
Dust, dirt, and grime can lead to bigger problems if left unchecked. Regular cleaning helps prevent mold, mildew, and other issues that could turn into costly repairs down the line. Think of it as protecting your investment.
The “Wow” factor
Imagine walking into a spotless, fresh-smelling home every time you arrive. Not only does it make your stay more enjoyable, but it also makes your property more appealing to renters or future buyers. A clean home can command a higher rental rate or sales price—because who wouldn’t pay more for that ‘wow’ factor?
So, can regular cleaning really increase your vacation home’s value? The answer is a resounding yes. Whether you’re enjoying it yourself or considering selling, keeping your vacation home in tip-top shape is always a good investment.
Ready to keep your vacation home in top shape and boost its value? At Leticia’s First Class Cleaning Inc., we make it easy for you. Our team of professionals ensures that your property stays spotless, so you can enjoy your time without worrying about maintenance.

Autumn is a beautiful time in San Luis Obispo County. The air is crisp, the colors are vibrant, and, oh yes, the leaves are everywhere. While those golden, red, and orange leaves look picturesque, letting them pile up on your lawn isn’t just a bad look—it can cause some real problems.
Protect your lawn
Letting leaves sit on your lawn for too long can smother the grass, block sunlight, and trap moisture. This could lead to mold growth and even dead patches in your lawn. And let’s face it, nobody wants to deal with that mess in the spring.
Avoid slips and falls
Leaves can get pretty slippery when they’re wet. Whether you’re walking to your car or your kids are playing outside, a layer of wet leaves on your driveway or walkway is practically begging for a slip-and-fall incident. And trust us, nobody wants to spend their autumn nursing a twisted ankle.
Critters love the cover
Fallen leaves create the perfect hiding spots for pests like rodents and insects. As much as we love wildlife, we’re guessing you don’t want them setting up shop in your backyard.
So, while it might be tempting to let those leaves stay put until spring, doing so could lead to more work—and more headaches—down the road. Plus, nothing beats the satisfaction of a clean yard. So grab your rake (or give us a call) and let’s keep that lawn looking great this fall!

Garden cleanliness is also a matter of safety; fallen branches, accumulated leaves, or slippery surfaces can cause accidents. Keeping the garden clean reduces the risk of trips and falls.

The microwave is one of the most used appliances in the home and that is why it must be kept clean to avoid bacteria and bad odors. Today we share with you a quick, simple and inexpensive How-To clean your microwave
In a microwave-ready container, mix two tablespoons of white vinegar and fill it halfway with water, put it in the oven and heat it for 5 minutes, although if it is a high power, 3 minutes will be enough.
The steam from this mixture will loosen the dirt or grease from the walls and it will be easier to clean it. To do this, take a sponge soaked with baking soda and start cleaning from the top until you reach the base, where previously you have to remove the dish and wash it separately. After passing the sponge with baking soda, clean again, but now with a damp cloth.
Once it is clean and odorless, you can use it to scent your home, for this you simply have to put water in the container along with a couple of cinnamon sticks and a few slices of lemon and heat for 3 to 5 minutes, this will make the aroma go out throughout your kitchen.

Having a baby at home is an amazing experience, but at the same time a huge responsibility. Their care is very specific and delicate, especially in their first months of life. It’s necessary to provide safe, clean and disinfected spaces and objects, that is why today we want to talk about how to clean with a newborn at home.
Food utensils
To have the proper hygiene we recommend soft products to wash bottles, plates, spoons and other objects with which the baby comes into contact when eating or drinking. Make sure they are made of food-grade plastic and dishwasher safe.
Washing sponges
Spong can be the perfect ground for germs to grow. Just as you should pay attention to the hygiene of food utensils, you should also pay attention to the sponges used for such cleaning, since they keep a lot of dirt, so once they are used, they should be rinsed and disinfected correctly. You can disinfect them by placing them in your microwave for 15 seconds, but don’t rely on that too much, since it can allow more resistant bacteria. You can put them in a mixture of baking soda an vinegar overnight for an effective disinfecting.
Floor
The floor and carpets are the areas that keep more bacteria because of the constant contact with footwear. A good ol’ mopping and vacuuming will do the trick. Make sure your cleaning product has disinfecting properties.
Toys
Taking into account the materials of the toy, the type of product to be used for washing or cleaning must be taken into account, always taking care that these products are not toxic. Remember that certain types of plush can be ruined by the washing machine. Prefer soft polyester or felt
Care is stricter with a baby at home, however, it is essential to maintain constant cleaning and disinfection. We can help you out and we’re a click away!
