Cleaning a bathroom is one of the most dreaded chores. To make this job a little lighter, spend a few minutes each day doing some very light cleaning. You will be surprised at how much easier bathroom cleaning becomes.
In order to clean efficiently, keep the cleaning supplies at hands reach. Make sure to have toilet-bowl cleaner, countertop cleaner, glass cleaner, shower spray, squeegee, and drying cloths all somewhere you can easily access. Then, follow these tips:
- Always turn on a fan or leave a window open when bathing or showering. By preventing humidity buildup, you will also be preventing the growth of mold and mildew. It is a good idea to keep the fan running while you are getting ready for the day to make sure all water in the air has evaporated.
- After you shower, spray, rinse, and then squeegee the shower walls. Use a mild solution that has been formulated for a shower or bath. This should only take an extra 1 to 2 minutes after your bath. This will prevent soap scum from accumulating. It will also mean you will have to use less harsh substances on deep cleaning days. Also, after every shower remove any hair at the drain. This will make your drain less vulnerable to clogging.
- Swish some cleaner in your toilet bowl daily. When you are finished getting ready for the day squirt a bit of toilet bowl cleaner inside of the bowl and give it a quick scrub. Let it sit for a few minutes to make sure it gets rid of any bacteria. Flush as you head out.
- Put away all daily toiletries out of sight every sing day. This includes toothbrushes, toothpaste, floss, razors, make up, and anything else you use. This might require you to free up some space in your bathroom vanity or closet. If you do not have much storage, feel free to get creative.
- Spray a cleaner on countertops and do a quick scrub after you have finished putting away your toiletries. It Is never fun to try to scrape off old toothpaste or shaving cream when it has been sitting a while. Get rid of all overspray immediately and the job will be much easier. Use a drying cloth to get rid of all moisture. This will prevent mold or mildew from growing in small gaps or crevices.
- Empty your trashcan daily. Most bathroom garbage cans are very small and will overflow easily. This overflow is not only unsightly but also a breeding ground for odor and bacteria. Make it a goal to try to empty your bathroom trash can at least 3-4 times a week.
- Did you know mold and mildew’s number one enemy is sunlight? Use sunlight to your advantage by opening your windows and blinds every day. This daylight not only kills germs but also is great for your mental health.

Customer Testimonials
I was extremely pleased with Ashley’s team and they left my house extra-sparkling, making me look good for my in-laws’ visit. All traces of puppy fur and hard-to-remove gunk removed, and the house smelled clean, like lavender (not harsh chemicals). This is thorough, professional, fairly priced, and courteous service. All the stars!”
“We are very pleased with the service we received with Dashing Maids. Their communication and customer service is superb! Ashley is professional and has great attention to detail. She took the time to take notes on all the areas in our house that I wanted to have cleaned during our first walk through, which I really appreciated. In the past, I’ve done walk throughs with other cleaning companies, explained what I wanted cleaned, they nod “yes” and then didn’t follow through. When Dashing Maids came to clean on our scheduled date, they were very efficient. Everything looked great when they were finished and I’m looking forward to having Dashing Maids return on a regular basis.”
“I have never had a cleaning service, but considered it often. Dashing Maids put a flyer on my door which intrigued me enough to call them. I was impressed with their initiative and enthusiasm that I hired them after our initial meeting. Now every other week I get to come home to a wonderfully clean house with their charming additions that make me smile. I’m not sure they are trying to turn my “black thumb” into a greenish one, but I haven’t killed the lucky bamboo they left as a surprise yet. I’d fully endorse them as a cleaning, Dashing Maids service.”
“It’s so nice to come home to a sparkling clean house! I’ve worked with other cleaning companies in the past and Dashing Maids always provides a more thorough clean than I’ve found with other companies for a very reasonable price. Plus, they’re great with my dog and don’t mind that he’s at home when they come to clean. I highly recommend Dashing Maids!”
“There is no one that cleans our house as well as Katie does! She is meticulous and genuinely loves to clean, and it absolutely shows. We love it when it is our cleaning day. I could not be happier with the services provided by her and the Dashing Maids company. They are responsive, timely, and have overall been a pleasure to work with. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable cleaning company.”
“I have been using Dashing Maids for several years now, and appreciate the communication and consistency with which our home is cleaned. The cleaner that always treats our home as if it were hers is Katie. Thanks Katie for your hard work!”
“Hannah G was great! She even left a nice note on my countertop that said, “Have a great weekend!” I love personal touches like that.”
“Thank you Talon! It was great to walk into my office today to have it sparkly clean and ready for a week of patients!”
"We have been dashing maids customers for a couple of years now and the service is always impeccable. Most recently our cleaning team has included Katie and Hannah, and I always get excited when I see them arrive. I know my house will be clean and I’ll get the pleasure of their company while they clean it. They do a great job and give me such peace of mind!”
“Ashley and her crew are the best house cleaning service I have ever employed. So friendly and so fast, yet so thorough. My house feels and smells so clean, and that freshness lasts. Would highly recommend to all my friends."
We've been fortunate to have Dashing Maids clean our home for the past several years. Ashley and her entire team have been great to work with. We'd recommend them without reservation. Most recently, Tori and Carol cleaned our home with detail and care.
