Smelly bathrooms are one thing; but grimy, slimy, dingey smells are the worst; something that can occur if not regularly cleaned properly. At Nadia’s House Cleaning, we take pride in thorough cleaning throughout the entire house. We know that bathrooms in particular need regular cleanings to maintain hygiene and keep it looking its best. To avoid soap scum, mold and mildew, here are the steps you can follow for a thorough bathroom deep clean:

Where Do I Start Deep Cleaning My Bathroom? What Does it Consist Of?

1. Declutter: Start by removing any items from the bathroom surfaces, including toiletries, bathmats, shower curtains, and trash cans. This will make it easier to clean every nook and cranny.
2. Dust and Sweep: Use a broom or vacuum cleaner with a nozzle attachment to remove dust, cobwebs, and loose dirt from corners, ceilings, and vents. Pay special attention to exhaust fans and light fixtures.
3. Wipe Down Surfaces: Use an all-purpose cleaner to wipe down all bathroom surfaces, including countertops, sinks, faucets, and fixtures. Be sure to get into all the crevices and corners.
4. Clean Mirrors and Glass: Use glass cleaner and a microfiber cloth or paper towels to clean mirrors and any glass surfaces in the bathroom. Make sure to leave them streak-free.
5. Toilet Bowl: Apply toilet bowl cleaner inside the toilet bowl and let it sit while you work on other tasks. After a few minutes, scrub the inside of the bowl with a toilet brush. Don’t forget the outside and the base of the toilet as well.
6. Shower and Bathtub: Spray the shower and bathtub with a suitable cleaner. Allow it to sit for a few minutes to break down soap scum and grime. Use a scrub brush or scrubbing pad to clean the walls, floor, and any grout lines. Rinse thoroughly.
7. Tile and Grout (if applicable): If you have tile and grout in your bathroom, use a specialized tile and grout cleaner to deep clean these areas. Scrub the grout lines with a brush to remove any mold or stains.
8. Sink and Faucets: Scrub the sink and faucets with a sponge or cloth to remove any remaining residue. Pay attention to water stains and soap scum.
9. Exhaust Fan and Vent Covers: Remove the exhaust fan cover and clean it thoroughly. Vacuum any dust from the fan blades. Wipe down the vent covers.
10. Replace or Clean Accessories: Replace any accessories that were removed earlier or clean them before returning them to their places. This includes bathmats, shower curtains, and trash cans.
11. Toilet Paper and Towel Replenishment: Ensure that you have enough toilet paper and clean towels available for use.
12. Final Touches: Go around the bathroom one more time to ensure that you haven’t missed any spots. Use a toothbrush or small brush to clean around fixtures, in tight spaces, and around the base of the toilet.
13. Disinfect: After everything is cleaned, use a disinfectant cleaner or disinfectant wipes to thoroughly disinfect high-touch surfaces such as doorknobs, light switches, and toilet flush handles.
14. Empty Trash and Replace Liners: Empty the trash can and replace the liner with a clean one.
15. Ventilation: Ensure the bathroom is well-ventilated to help it dry faster and prevent mold and mildew growth.
