Spring is coming, which means longer days, warmer weather, and the perfect excuse to give your home a fresh start. While most of us focus on decluttering wardrobes or tidying the garden, the bathroom often gets overlooked – yet it’s one of the hardest-working (and dampest) rooms in the house.
A proper bathroom spring clean not only makes the space sparkle, but it also helps prevent mould, protect your family’s health, and extend the life of your fittings.
Here’s our ultimate checklist to bring your bathroom back to life this spring.
✅ Step 1: Declutter and Organise
- Toss out expired medicines, old makeup, and half-used toiletries.
- Wipe down shelves and storage baskets before putting items back.
- Use clear containers or drawer organisers to keep products tidy.
A clutter-free bathroom is easier to clean and less likely to harbour hidden dust and mould.
✅ Step 2: Deep Clean Surfaces
- Tiles & grout: Scrub with a baking soda paste or a specialist grout cleaner.
- Toilet & basin: Use a disinfectant for hidden spots under rims and around taps.
- Mirrors & glass: Vinegar and water mix gives a streak-free shine.
Tip: Microfibre cloths work wonders for streak-free finishes.
✅ Step 3: Wash Soft Furnishings
- Launder towels, mats, and shower curtains on a hot cycle.
- Replace worn-out mats or upgrade to quick-dry fabrics.
- For a fresh touch, add a scented sachet in the linen cupboard.
✅ Step 4: Target Hidden Mould
- Check corners, behind the toilet, and under the sink for damp spots.
- Use natural solutions (like vinegar spray) or mould remover if needed.
- Consider a dehumidifier for severe damp – but prevention is always better (Showerdome, nudge, nudge, wink, wink!)
✅ Step 5: Freshen Fixtures & Fittings
- Descale shower heads by soaking them overnight in a vinegar solution.
- Polish chrome taps and handles with a soft cloth.
- Replace old silicone around sinks or showers if discoloured.
✅ Step 6: Keep It Dry, Keep It Clean
A sparkling bathroom won’t stay that way if it’s constantly damp. Moisture from hot showers causes condensation, which can lead to mould, peeling paint, and damp odours.
The easiest way to stay on top of it? Stop the steam at its source. With a Showerdome® installed, steam and condensation are dramatically reduced, meaning means less mould, less cleaning, and a fresher bathroom all year round.
