A selection of cleaning supplies, such as brushes and spray bottles, for use in dailly household cleaning tasks.

Whether you're tackling daily mess or prepping for a festive clean-up, having the right cleaning tools at home saves time, protects your surfaces, and delivers hygienic results.

At Helpex, we handle everything from post-construction clean-ups to regular deep cleaning across Jammu. And time after time, we see a simple truth:➡️ Homes with the right tools stay cleaner longer and need fewer emergency fixes.

Let’s walk you through the exact must-have cleaning tools and products we recommend — along with direct links to buy them.

1. 🧽 Microfiber Cloths — Not All Are the Same

Cheap rags spread dust. Microfiber traps it.

We recommend using two different types based on surface type:

👉 Microfiber Cloth for Glass, Cars & Mirrors

Perfect for shiny surfaces — no streaks, no lint.

✅ Highlights:

Ultra-smooth, scratch-free
Great for cars, windows, mirrors
Reusable and machine washable

🔗 Buy on Amazon

👉 Multi-Purpose Microfiber Cloth for General Cleaning

Use this everywhere else: furniture, appliances, shelves, etc.

✅ Highlights:

Gentle on surfaces, tough on dirt
Assorted colors (great for color-coding by area)
Easy to wash and reuse

🔗 Buy on Amazon

💡 Pro Tip: Use one color per room to prevent cross-contamination — e.g., blue for bathroom, yellow for kitchen.

2. 🧴 Neutral Floor Cleaner — Safe for Marble & Tiles

Many floor cleaners are acidic — which slowly damage marble and even ceramic tiles.This neutral pH option is what we trust for daily mopping.

✅ Why We Recommend It:

Safe for marble, granite, tiles
Non-toxic, eco-conscious formula
Leaves no residue
Light, pleasant fragrance

🔗 Buy on Amazon

⚠️ Common Mistake: Using acid on marble can lead to etching and permanent dullness. Avoid vinegar or strong bleach.

3. 🧹 Floor Scrubbing Brush — Clean Grout & Corners with Ease

Sometimes, mopping isn’t enough. For areas like balconies, bathroom edges, and tile grout, this handled brush makes life easier.

✅ Why This One Works:

Comfortable grip
Medium-stiff bristles: tough on stains, gentle on tile
Rust-resistant metal rod
Lightweight and long-lasting

🔗 Buy on Amazon

💡 Pro Tip: Use this brush once a week in damp zones to prevent algae buildup — especially in Jammu’s humid monsoon months.

4. 💦 Spray Bottles — For DIY Mixes & Quick Cleanups

Stop using full-strength disinfectants everywhere. Instead, dilute and spray as needed — it’s safer, cheaper, and more effective.

We recommend this 3-pack to separate different mixtures.

✅ Use Cases:

Glass cleaner (vinegar + water)
Kitchen counter disinfectant
Neutral floor spray for spot cleaning

🔗 Buy on Amazon

💡 Pro Tip: Label each bottle clearly — no mix-ups. Use waterproof stickers for durability.

5. 🧹 Extendable Duster — No More Climbing for Fan Cleaning

Ceiling fans, cobwebs, corners — all cleaned without using a stool or chair.

This extendable microfiber duster makes it simple.

✅ Features We Love:

Soft microfiber head traps dust
Telescopic pole extends up to 6 ft
Head is washable and reusable
Lightweight and flexible

🔗 Buy on Amazon

💡 Pro Tip: Dust fans first before mopping — otherwise you'll be redoing the floor.
