Next to your kitchen, your bathroom is probably the busiest spot in your home. Without proper care, it can easily be a breeding space for moulds, mildew and even pests. Cleaning it can be time-consuming, and if you have a weak stomach, you might need to hire domestic cleaners in Chatham to get the job done correctly. Here are places you need to revisit to ensure you are keeping sickness at bay in your home.

The back of the toilet

Your toilet might be pristine but it is very easy to neglect the back of your toilet. If you hire professionals for domestic cleaning in Chatham, they will check this spot right away because, for sure, this would already have mould and mildew growth. It could also be nesting clumps of hair without your knowledge.

Drains

Usually, trains are neglected because they are not seen as much as the other parts of your bathroom. That is until you have clogging issues. By this time, the dirt and grime that has accumulated here would be detrimental to your health. You will need to wear gloves and masks to clean this area off. There are drain cleaning solutions available from grocery stores or you can use the traditional DIY combination of baking soda, vinegar and hot water. If you find the drain too dirty to handle on your own, you can hire domestic cleaners in Chatham.

Floors and mats

Unless you wear slippers inside the bathroom, your skin comes into direct contact with the floor and the bathroom anti-slip mats. Unfortunately, without regular scrubbing and anti-mould or detergent application, your floors can breed mould and mildew as well. This can cause skin problems on your feet, among other, more serious health issues. It is recommended to scrub your bathroom floors regularly, even daily if your bathroom is a busy space. You can also use a mop to keep the floors, and the bathroom mats dry after every use.

Faucets and knobs

We handle faucets and knobs all the time. While we wash our hands often, we need to touch handles and knobs before our hands are clean. You can regularly use disinfectant wipes to keep doors, faucets and knobs germ-free throughout the day. This may seem like an extreme cleaning measure. However, if there are a lot of people using the bathroom, this can help prevent the spread of sicknesses.

Walls and ceilings

Walls and ceilings need to be washed and scrubbed at least once a week because the bathroom is a moist space. Mould can easily grow on walls and ceilings under such circumstances. Ceilings must also be cleaned and vacuumed for cobwebs. Otherwise, your bathroom would be the breeding ground for all sorts of insects.

Showerheads

Showerheads can be handheld or fixed. Fixed shower heads might be less prone to germ spread. However, they can also be easily neglected. Check for water deposits because that could clog the holes of your showerhead. You can clear this with a white vinegar mixture. Just rinse off and wipe with dry cloth to refresh the area. You can also use mild disinfectant wipes if the water deposits are not that hard yet.
