How to get that professionally cleaned bathroom

To get your bathroom to that pristine state starts with the small steps of cleanliness. You can transform your own bathroom into a luxurious hotel bathroom even without the help of a professional.

So how do hotels get those bathrooms so clean? The simple answer is that they are cleaned every day. Even if the same guest is in the room for multiple nights there are procedures done to maintain the cleanliness of the amenities.

We know no one has the time to clean their bathroom daily, nor do they want to. So we have come up with some handy tips for how you can clean your own bathroom at a professional level, without needing to pick up the scrubbing brush every day.

Vacuum and sweep regularly

Keeping hairs and dust off the floor is the first step to get your bathroom looking and feeling like it has been professionally cleaned. A handy tip is to work from top to bottom, so dust cabinets up high then vacuum afterwards.

Keeping dust, hair and dirt off the floor also helps when doing a thorough cleaning of the floor and other appliances.

Raise the temperature

Heat is the perfect cleaning catalyst for any job. If you are cleaning a bath tub or a shower, have hot water running for a couple of minutes to help raise any dirty. Leaving hot water to sit in your bath tub is also an effective strategy to help you clean quicker and easier.

Additionally if you have access to a steamer, give your bathroom a deep clean by spraying your tiles, benches and walls. For the best results use a solution that is half water and white vinegar. Let it sit for a couple of minutes before you wipe down any surfaces.

Clean the grout

Fallen dirt can get trapped in between the tiles and cause build-ups that could lead to bacteria growth. If you haven’t attempted to clean the grout in a while, it may be difficult to get it back to its pristine form as the longer it sets the harder it is to lift.

Bleach is a common and effective measure but there are also some home remedies you can opt for. Make a paste of bicarb soda and water and apply it to the grout. Grab an old toothbrush and scrub away.

The solution of water and white vinegar should also be applied to the paste after you have scrubbed it. It will give off a fizz and then you should be able to clean the grout with ease. To maintain the cleanliness of your grout it is recommended to seal it from moisture every six months. For a daily effective measure, having the water-vinegar solution in a spray bottle is an easy way to spray it around daily.

Keep things white

For a clean bathroom, having the colour scheme as white can make a big difference. Opt to use glass containers for storage of bathroom items such as cotton balls.

White surfaces are easy to clean and if maintained can keep a luxurious shine to them. This is why hotel bathrooms are primarily white in colour.

If you long for that hotel bathroom feel and want to implement it at home, these are some simple tips to help you professionally clean your own bathroom. The most important tip is maintenance. Keeping on top of everything and making sure it is up kept will give your bathroom the shine it needs.
