How to Keep Your Bathroom Cleaner for Longer

Maintaining a clean and hygienic bathroom after our visits is essential for a healthy home environment. There are several things you can do help extend the life of a clean in your bathrooms, powder rooms, ensuites and more. Here are the top tips from some of our cleaners!

1. Remove visible clutter
A clutter-free countertop not only makes your bathroom look neat and spacious, but it also makes cleaning easier and more efficient. By minimizing the items on the surface, you reduce the accumulation of dust and grime, making your bathroom a more pleasant and sanitary space. So, make it a habit to clear off unnecessary items and store them properly in drawers or cabinets. Remember, a clean countertop contributes to a clean bathroom.

2. Ensure space to dry & aerate
Having ample drying space in your bathroom is crucial in preventing the growth of mildew or mould. These fungi thrive in damp and poorly ventilated areas, and a bathroom with inadequate drying space can quickly become a breeding ground for them. By ensuring that your bathroom has enough space for towels, bath mats, and other items to dry completely, you can significantly reduce the moisture level in the room.

3. Place a laundry basket within reach
Keeping a clothing basket close to your bathroom is a simple yet effective strategy to prevent laundry from piling up on the floor. It provides a designated place for dirty clothes and towels, encouraging everyone to dispose of their used items properly rather than leaving them scattered around. This not only helps to keep your bathroom tidy and clutter-free, but it also makes laundry day more manageable. With all the dirty laundry collected in one place, you save time and effort sorting through piles of clothes. So, invest in a good laundry basket and make it a part of your bathroom routine.

4. Vacuum your bathroom
Regular hoovering is an often overlooked but highly effective method for keeping a bathroom clean. Dust and hair can quickly accumulate on bathroom floors, especially in corners and under cabinets. Vacuuming not only improves the overall cleanliness and appearance of your bathroom but also contributes to a healthier environment by reducing allergens.

5. Pick the perfect recurring schedule
Finding the sweet spot between visits from us is key to maintaining a clean bathroom. If the intervals are too long, dirt and grime can build up, making the cleaning process more difficult and time-consuming. On the other hand, too frequent visits might not be necessary. The ideal frequency depends on the usage of your bathroom. For a heavily used bathroom, a weekly cleaning might be appropriate, while for less frequently used ones, bi-weekly or even monthly cleanings might suffice. The key is to not wait too long between cleanings to prevent the accumulation of dirt and ensure your bathroom is always fresh and clean.

By incorporating these strategies into your cleaning routine, you can keep your bathroom cleaner easier and for longer periods between our visits. Utilising preventative measures, decluttering and keeping on top of the smaller tasks can help maintain a clean bathroom.
