People get pretty hung up on the cleanliness and comfort levels of their home, which is generally a good thing — but they don’t always go about it in the correct way. You don’t need to focus your attention on all areas of the home equally. Some rooms can afford to be a little messy, while in others you’ll feel the effects if it’s less clean. The bathroom is one of these rooms. If it’s in a less than stellar condition, you’ll feel it more than you would, say, your laundry room. While it might seem like it’s one of those rooms that is always a little unclean, it doesn’t have to be this way — you just need to know how. Below, we take a look at five ways you can keep your washroom looking its best.

Easy Access
The more cluttered your bathroom is, the more difficult it is going to keep neat and orderly. Instead of adding cabinets to your bathroom for additional storage, keep all the non-essential items outside in another storage unit on the landing. It’s much easier to keep the floor space and corners — the places where dirt usually builds up — tidy if you’re easily able to access those areas. Cabinets with legs rather than low bottom drawers are better, too, as you can easily sweep under them.
Choose the Right Materials
Not all materials are created equal when it comes to the bathroom. There’s so much moisture in the air, and if you don’t have the right surfaces, you could find that you’re spending far too much cleaning the interior of your shower. Even though people often start out with the best of intentions, eventually their motivation dwindles, and then the grime in the shower begins to take over. However, there is another way. Look at installing PVC shower panels, which you can buy from Floors to Walls, and you’ll have a zero-maintenance shower. It’s much easier to keep the walls looking their best when they’re waterproof.
Rinse It Down
If that’s taken care of the walls, then what about the floor of the shower, and the sink? When you’re going about your regularly grooming routines, these surfaces can become bogged down with hair, shower gel, soap, toothpaste — all the stuff that you’d naturally find in an area that’s made for grooming, essentially. After your shower, make sure you’re rinsing away all the residue. You have a hot water tool in your hand, you may as well put it to use! It’s also much easier to rinse away the sink each time you use it for anything other than washing your hands, rather than trying to scrub it away when it’s looking messy.
Wash Those Towels
Finally, make sure you’re washing those towels and washcloths. These two items are used all the time, and will bring down the state of your bathroom even if everything else is in full working order. Throw them in the laundry every time you do a wash, and keep them hygienic.
