Looking for a way to spruce up your home? Top 5 HASSLE-FREE cleaning hacks from TikTok
- Replies 3
Many people have the misconception that TikTok is merely a social media app that young people use to create dancing videos and viral funny clips, but nothing could be further from the truth.
In a particular nook of the TikTok algorithm, we found our favourite specialty of all: the app's amazing cleaning tips!
Well, it's no secret that we love a good cleaning hack here at the SDC. So, we curated some of the best cleaning tactics to share with you!
Without further ado, here are the SDC's top 5 cleaning tips from TikTok:
1. Cleaning the corners of your shower without bending over
It's no secret that cleaning can be a pain – especially when you're trying to do it in hard-to-reach places.
With this trick, we won't ever bend over backwards again just to reach that nasty shower!
The future of cleaning is using these amazing extended, motorised brushes that can do all the scrubbing for you.
The brushes are available on Amazon for $69.99 and on Ebay for $54.99.
You can even just purchase this $22.94 30-pack of various cleaning heads that attach directly to the end if you happen to have a drill on hand. In this manner, you can also use this to clean other parts of the house including your kitchen, bathroom sink, walls, and other surfaces.
2. Hassle-free stovetop cleaning
I think we can all admit that stovetop cleaning has got to be about one of the most frustrating cleaning jobs in the kitchen.
It seems like no matter how much effort we put in, we can never quite achieve the desired finish, especially when trying to get rid of those black burn stains.
So, if you're looking for a hassle-free cleaning trick for stovetops, then we recommend spritzing on this $4.50 oven cleaner over the area you want to clean.
Wrap the area with cling wrap and leave it for 24 hours so the cleaning solution can do its work.
The result? A squeaky clean stovetop!
If you want to go the extra mile, you can go back in after letting the grime melt away overnight with a steel sponge, warm water, and a cloth to wipe up all the extra and finish with some stove polisher ($9.44).

3. Restoring your discoloured grout
If you've invested countless hours trying to restore that discoloured, grimy grout to its original shining white state and you find yourself getting frustrated because none of the methods you used worked, then this tip is perfect for you!
One of our favourite grout refresher pens ($18.50) can transform dirty grout into sparkling clean in a matter of minutes.
As an alternative, “queen of home hacks” Carolina McCauley also recommended using a $20 degreaser which she claimed was effective at cleaning her grout after she unintentionally spilt it on her floor.
Although we haven't been able to verify her tip, if her floors are any indication, it appears to work wonderfully.
4. Home freshener
You know how when you enter someone's home, the smell of freshly washed clothes fills the air and heightens your senses? Well, this TikTok cleaning trick will help you accomplish that goal without really doing any washing!
Get one of those reusable continuous spray bottles ($13.99), fill it with hot water, and add Comfort In Wash Scent Booster Classic Fresh ($12). Mix the solution well before spraying it all over the house.
You may also pick a different brand of washing beads or just use the ones you have available at home.
5. Removing hair from the carpet without using a vacuum cleaner
Don't you dread it when hair starts to clog up the cleaning head of your vacuum and make it look disgusting and tangled?
With this lint remover ($6.49), you can now make sure that any long hairs from you or your pets are removed from your carpet.
You might be surprised by how dirty your carpet is if you simply roll it all over the floor!
So, there you have it, folks! Will you be giving these tips a go? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below!
