We’ve all experienced the frustration and embarrassment of having a dirty bathroom. When life hits hard, when work hours increase, or simply when the sunshine calls us outside, it can be difficult to stay on top of keeping the bathroom clean.
The good news is, the goal of having a grime-free bathroom can be tackled successfully and easily by devoting just a small amount of time to the task. The one-two combo of sixty seconds a day plus a few minutes per week can keep the grime to a minimum, and free up time for more important things in life.
60 Seconds Every Day
Just one minute a day is all it takes to get started keeping the bathroom shiny and bright. Here’s how to conquer bathroom grime in 60 seconds or less.
-Using your fingertips, splash water on the mirror, lightly covering the majority of the glass. Get a bathroom hand towel, wipe down the mirror, eliminating any accumulated spots or grime.
-Finish by using the same towel to wipe down the faucet(s), counter, and sink.
Seem simple? The power of this habit is in its speed (it really does take just 60 seconds or less!) and ability to keep muck from accumulating. Don’t underestimate the power of this little task.
Work Smarter, Not Harder
Bathroom cleaning tools and solutions have come a long way. One of the best tools for keeping your bathroom toilet clean and tidy are cleaning tablets. With several different formulations available, these cleaning tablets work to keep your toilet bowl spotless with every flush. This added micro-cleaning is a huge help when you’re pressed for time and want to stretch out the interval between proper scrubbings. If you’re not sure what might be safe for your toilet, talk to a South West Plumbing expert to make sure these cleaning tablets are safe to use in your type of plumbing.
The Weekly Spot Cleaning
Cleaning the remaining problem areas weekly doesn’t take much time (just 5-10 minutes) and completes your bathroom cleaning efforts. Floors, tubs, and showers can be cleaned with a quick spritz of bathroom cleaning solution and a mop-up or wipe. Not much time? Grab a rag and some cleaning spray and tackle just the problem areas. Around the base of the toilet and the inside of the tub are a good place to start.
A little cleaning goes a long way when it comes to keeping a bathroom grime-free. Spending just one minute a day, plus a few minutes a week, can make a huge difference in maintaining a spotless bathroom.
