Cleaning Tips & Checklists: 10 Steps to Tackling the Bathroom!


I hope your cleaning tasks are coming along well! We are still on the room-by-room detailed cleaning checklists - this week, we are tackling the bathroom!



Here's the Bathroom Checklist:


  •  Clean the tub and shower. Spray with cleaner and scrub the walls in a circular motion from top to bottom. Spray the entire area with plain water to rinse off the cleaner, and wipe it down again with a damp cloth.
  •  Shine the mirror. Spray with glass cleaner (I also love the new Windex Wipes).
  •  Scrub the sink. Wipe the sink and the vanity top with a damp cloth or cleaner. Rinse completely and go over the area a second time. Scrub the drain with a toothbrush.
  •  Disinfect the toilet. Scrub both the inside and the outside.
  •  Mop the floor. Using a sponge and cleaner diluted in water, and starting from the farthest corner of the room, work toward the door, going left to right. Dip the mop into the bucket of cleaner, wring it out, and push it over a manageable section of the floor. Then dip the mop into a pail of clean water, wring it out, and mop the section again.
  •  Clean the wastebasket. Spray both the inside and the outside of the wastebasket with all-purpose cleaner, and wipe it down with a cloth.
  •  Wipe down the shower rods and rings. Use a damp cloth. Dust can build up, preventing the rings from working properly.
  •  Clean out the medicine cabinet. Empty the contents, placing them in the sink, then mist the walls and the shelves with cleaner and wipe with a cloth. Scrub any dirty areas with a toothbrush.
  •  Clean the cabinets. Lightly dampen a cloth with water and cleaner, and work in the direction of the grain, from top to bottom. Rinse and repeat. Polish the knobs.
  •  Wipe the faucet and fixtures. Use a cloth spritzed with cleaner. Buff with a clean cloth.
