Step 1: Gather Your Cleaning Supplies
Before you begin, make sure you have all the necessary cleaning supplies ready. This will streamline the process and help you stay organized.
- All-purpose cleaner

- Sponges

Step 2: Declutter the Bathroom
Clear out any items that do not belong in the bathroom or that are cluttering surfaces. This includes:
- Personal items (toothbrushes, cosmetics)
- Towels and bath mats
- Cleaning supplies (move them to a designated area)
Once decluttered, you will have a clear workspace to clean effectively.
Step 3: Clean the Shower and Bath
Start with the shower and bathtub as they can often harbor soap scum and mildew.
- Spray the all-purpose cleaner generously on all surfaces.
- Let it sit for a few minutes to break down grime.
- Use a scrub brush or sponge to scrub the surfaces.
- Rinse thoroughly with warm water.
- For stubborn stains, consider a specialized cleaner for tile and grout.
Step 4: Clean the Toilet
The toilet requires a focused approach to ensure it’s sanitized.
- Apply toilet bowl cleaner under the rim and let it sit for at least 10 minutes.
- While waiting, spray the outside of the toilet with disinfectant.
- Wipe down the exterior with a cloth, paying special attention to the flush handle and seat.
- Use a toilet brush to scrub the inside of the bowl.
- Flush to rinse.
Step 5: Clean the Sink and Countertops
Next, focus on the sink and countertops.
- Remove any items from the countertop.
- Spray all-purpose cleaner on the sink and countertops.
- Use a sponge to scrub these surfaces.
- Rinse with warm water and wipe dry with a cloth.
- Don’t forget to clean the faucet and handles.
Step 6: Clean Mirrors
For a streak-free shine on mirrors:
- Use a glass cleaner or a vinegar-water solution.
- Spray the cleaner on the mirror.
- Wipe with a microfiber cloth in a circular motion.
Step 7: Clean the Floors
Finish your cleaning routine by addressing the floors.
- Sweep or vacuum to remove loose dirt and hair.
- Mop the floor with a suitable floor cleaner.
- Make sure to pay attention to corners and behind the toilet.
Additional Tips
