The health and safety of public workspaces are so important to ensure that people who are using them are safe and comfortable in a working environment.

In this blog, we are going to be discussing the importance and how to effectively clean bathrooms. Whether you’re in a school or office, these are a few easy tips for getting those bathrooms squeaky clean!

Before we jump into it, here are some things to consider before starting any cleaning:

Never Mix Chemicals

This can create extremely harmful fumes and cause potential injuries. Mixing products together, for example, bleach and vinegar create chlorine gas. 

Wear Appropriate PPE When Necessary

If you wear the correct PPE before starting a cleaning job, you will avoid any potential injuries or respiratory issues. Always ensure you are wearing correct protective equipment when using any potentially harmful chemicals or cleaning machinery.

Prepare a Cleaning Caddy in Advance

This will help you avoid wasting time searching through for the products you do need. Then when you’re done, make sure you give your cleaning equipment a good deep clean to ensure you can use them again I.e., mop heads, cloths, or machinery (follow instructions on each manual carefully). 

How your cleaning routine works are up to you but here is an example of a basic routine:

  1. Dust above cabinets.
  2. Clean light fixtures.
  3. Clean cabinets.
  4. Clean all handles and knobs.
  5. Clean bathroom vents.
  6. Organise and clean countertops.
  7. Thoroughly scrub the sink area and taps.
  8. Thoroughly deep clean all surfaces.
  9. Give the toilet area a deep clean and scrub – you can use bowl treatments and close the lid while it works its magic.
  10. Vacuum flooring.
  11. Deep clean flooring.
  12. Wipe down windows, window frames, seals, and locking handles.

Commercial businesses across the UK have been advised to improve their cleaning routines to help stop the spread of Covid-19. Shared workspaces like offices and classrooms are the perfect examples of where bacteria easily spread and viruses travel.
