Bathroom Cleaning Checklist
Every household has a bathroom cleaning schedule. Usually smaller than the other rooms of a house, the bathrooms are easier to handle and clean if a regime is maintained. A clean and sparkling bathroom reflects the health and sanitary concern of the entire household.
Maintaining a clean bathroom also adds to the value of your property and reduce the cost of replacement and repair of sanitary equipment, plumbing materials as well as tiles and paints.
A routine clean-up is good enough, but often few things go unattended. Preparing a checklist and cleaning according to it ensures that every inch is attended and cleaned. All you need to do is check off as you clean.
To prepare a bathroom cleaning checklist prepare one for daily cleaning and another for a weekly deep cleaning. This will make both the tasks simpler.
