Stone Fireplace Cleaning by the Best Residential House Cleaning and Maid Service in Park Ridge, IL. Stone fireplaces are so beautiful and elegant but only if they are clean and free of any black soot that might surround and stained them, says the most thorough Residential House Cleaning and Maid Service in Park Ridge, IL., Dial-A-Maid.

 Soot can easily accumulate on the stone when, upon lighting the fireplace, someone forgets to open the damper to let the smoke dissipate in the chimney. Hence, a black film and soot will appear. This tells us to immediately open the damper, both for esthetic and for health reasons. The smoke can fill up the fireplace room and cause damage to furniture and, what’s more important, to our lungs, says the most Respected Residential House Cleaning and Maid Service in Park Ridge, IL., Dial-A-Maid.

There are two basic methods to clean a stone fireplace effectively. One is to mix one cup of trisodium phosphate, ( TSP) into a gallon of hot water. Use a stiff, nylon brush and scrub the black soot off. This method is a little messy and might need to be done once or twice. Rinse the Fireplace Stone off with clear water, says the most Spectacular Residential House Cleaning and Maid Service in Park Ridge, IL., Dial-A-Maid.

The other cleaning method is to use a ready made enzyme cleaner, purchased from your local home goods store. Quick’n Brite is a good one and is environmentally friendly also. It comes in a liquid or a paste. The paste works better. Before you begin to clean the stone, dry sponge or dry brush any loose soot that has accumulated. Then, apply the Paste onto the stone fireplace soot, and let it sit for 10 -15 minutes, then scrub it with a nylon brush and rinse it off with warm water. Repeat the process if necessary, says the Best Residential House Cleaning and Maid Service in Park Ridge, IL., Dial-A-Maid.
