Oh it's a funny thing all that trend business. We are all influenced by it – it's impossible not to be – and after all you can only buy what's in the shops. But there are some things that, these days, I just know I like because I like them. I'm also, at the grand…

As you plan on how you'll tackle each room in your house for your annual deep clean, remember the following tips once it's time to go over the bathroom:

Arrange things neatly in a clear drawer
Clear plastic drawers are the "little black dress" of organizing, says Barbara Reich, a professional organizer. Use them in every room of the house. They're great in the bathroom when used to divide and organize drawers or to make great use of space under the bathroom sink. When they get dusty, clear them of their contents and wash them in the dishwasher. Source: CountryLiving
Wipe the toilet clean
Take a few minutes to get that porcelain throne shining. Spray the toilet seat, lid, rim and base with equal parts vinegar and water. Allow to sit for a few minutes, then wipe clean with a microfiber cloth, starting with the lid and working down to the base. Sprinkle inside the toilet bowl with baking soda. Scrub with a toilet brush and flush. Source: Today
Don't overlook the ceiling
The ceiling often gets forgotten. But when you'll be sitting in the tub relaxing you'll be facing this part of the room so clean in, dust the corners and take care of any mold-related problems if there are any. Source: Homedit
Scrub the grime off the walls
Clean soap scum on shower walls and glass doors with a damp dryer sheet. For more stubborn buildup, combine equal parts hot white vinegar and liquid dish soap in a spray bottle. Spray the shower walls and let this solution stay in place for at least 4 hours — overnight is better — then wash it away with hot water. Source: HousewifeHowTos
If you think that your bathroom fixtures still don't look clean despite all your efforts to make them shine, then why not replace them with new ones? Call us!

The relaxing nature of a good warm bath helps us realize things that we don’t normally think about — such as the secrets of the universe or the reason we exist. However, if bathroom problems such as the following exist, they can steal your attention away from your dreamy thoughts. Don’t let these problems ruin your well-deserved alone time:
Photo by Daniel Fazio on Unsplash
Over-splashing tap
Selecting the right design will save you some frustration because the wrong tap with the wrong sink can certainly land you in a watery situation. You certainly don’t want a wet floor each time you turn the tap on! The placement of the sink with the tap defines how much splash it creates. If the sink is too close to the standing tap, the water may spill over the edge when it is initially turned on. The space of the sink also has a part to play as it would guide the water into the sink hole. An overhead tap mounted on the wall would have to be positioned correctly over the sink hole to ensure faster drainage. Also note that some sinks don’t come with overflow holes, so be mindful when you shop. Source: HomeAndDecor
Leaky shower
You may be able to put up with a leaky shower head for a little while, but it’ll cost you on your water bills. On top of that, the excess moisture being leaked to unplanned areas could create mold issues. Fixing your showerhead could be as easy as replacing a gasket, and you can often diagnose it on your own. Source: TheSpruce
Slow drain
Most tub and shower clogs are caused by hair. A simple fix is to remove the drain cover, straighten a wire coat hanger, then bend one end into a small hook. Push the hook down the drain and into the U-shape trap a few inches down. Then twist it around, and carefully pull it back. Chances are good you will have hooked the sizable hairball that was causing your slow drain. Source: BHG
If your leaky fixtures are a recurring problem, replacing them with higher quality ones is the answer! Call us today.

Whether you're going out with your special someone or staying at home to celebrate your love for each other, a romantic bath experience is the best way to wrap up your day. All you need is the following:

Clean bathroom
It will be difficult to create a romantic atmosphere in a dirty bathroom. To set up the most romantic evening possible, you'll need to make sure nothing in the bathroom is dirty or grimy. This includes not only the bathtub, but the rest of your bathroom as well. Mop or sweep the floor, wash out the bathtub, and clean all surfaces, including the sink. It's not necessary to spend hours cleaning, but making the bathroom look presentable is important. Source: WikiHow
Candlelight
Restore that healthy glow with a liberal sprinkling of candlelight. Tea lights are easy to use, make little mess and are easy to throw away once cooled. Don't place candles where you may splash water on them. Source: SheKnows
Champagne
Celebrate your time together with a romantic toast. Keep a bucket with ice in it nearby for refills. Use this couple time to renew promises or vows with each other. Or, just revel in actually having couple time. Complete the moment with romantic finger foods on a silver platter nearby. Source: SheKnows
Music
Your choice of music will have a major effect on your mood (and that of your partner if you're having a bubble bath for two), so take the time to give some thought to this essential component of the ambiance.
Do you want to create a serene, meditative, spa-like experience? There are many albums of relaxing instrumental spa music by different composers in different styles that you can choose from.
Not in the mood to "bliss out" this time? Pick your favorite songs. They can be relaxing, upbeat, funky, Taylor Swift, Miranda Lambert, Usher, Bruno Mars – just ask yourself what you're in the mood for! Source: Holidappy
Fitting in a bathtub designed for only one person isn't as fun as soaking in a whirlpool tub made for two people. Get one for your home so you can look forward to fancier bath dates with your significant other. Call us!
