Why the Most Basic Glass Cleaner Is All You Need!

Last updated on: December 3, 2016 By Kaylene Filed Under: Bathroom, Cleaning, DIY, Home Maintenance, How To 2 Comments

Do you buy glass cleaner? If you do I’m here to let you know that a very basic homemade glass cleaner is all you need for sparkling mirrors and windows! A couple of years back I shared a recipe for homemade glass cleaner. I was thrilled to find it because it meant I didn’t have to buy glass cleaner anymore. Since I wrote that post I have changed the way I clean my glass and mirrors just slightly. I was going to update the original post but I thought it would be better to fully explain the … [Read more...]

All Natural Way to Clean Limescale from Taps

Last updated on: April 24, 2016 By Kaylene Filed Under: Bathroom, Cleaning, DIY, Home Maintenance, How To, Taps Leave a Comment

The white chalky build up around the bathroom and laundry taps can be very frustrating. This white build up is actually limescale deposits that have built up over time where hard water has dried. I find it very annoying when I spend time getting the bathroom taps nice and clean only to find that the white chalky marks have reappeared when they are dry! It is worse when you have a dark colored taps like I do (they are very old and hopefully will be replaced in the near future). The limescale … [Read more...]

Cleaning Windows and Mirrors Made Quick and Easy

Last updated on: July 24, 2013 By Kaylene Filed Under: Bathroom, Cleaning, Home Maintenance 6 Comments

Cleaning the windows in a house can be a daunting task, especially if you have many large windows. You can go through quite a bit of window cleaning spray as you clean off the dirt and grime and then buff the window to make it gleam. Often cleaning the dirt off the windows is not as hard as trying to make sure there are no streak marks left when the window dries. Sometimes you have to wet down the window with cleaner and then polish it dry a couple of times to eliminate streaks. It can be … [Read more...]

Cleaning Dirt and Soap Scum from a Bath

Last updated on: November 16, 2013 By Kaylene Filed Under: Bathroom, Cleaning, Home Maintenance Leave a Comment

In an earlier post I covered how to clean the large areas of tiles and grout around a bath or shower (See Easily and Quickly Cleaning Bathroom Tiles and Grout) but the mixture used for that didn’t get rid of the soap scum properly from the surface of the actual bathtub.   The video link below shows how to use a vinegar/water solution combined with bi carb soda to tackle soap scum areas on the surface of a bath. The method outlined in the video utilises the power of the reaction … [Read more...]

Easily and Quickly Cleaning Bathroom Tiles and Grout

Last updated on: November 15, 2013 By Kaylene Filed Under: Bathroom, Cleaning, Home Maintenance 4 Comments

Many DIY websites that address cleaning tile grout suggest the use of bleach or other harsh cleaners and a toothbrush or small grout brush. While this is O.K. if you only have a small area to clean, if you want to clean a larger area of tiles then the use of harsh chemicals can be dangerous due to toxic fumes and also tediously slow if only using a small brush.   Some sites suggest the use of more friendly cleaners such as vinegar and bicarb soda but they too often have methods that … [Read more...]
