How to Reduce Mould in the Bathroom

? 1. Improve Ventilation (Most Important)

  • Open windows after showers
  • Use extractor fans for at least 15–20 minutes
  • Keep the bathroom door slightly open when possible

? Mould thrives in trapped moisture—airflow is the biggest fix.

? 2. Keep Surfaces Dry

  • Use a squeegee or towel on shower walls and glass
  • Wipe down taps and tiles after use

? Even 1–2 minutes daily makes a huge difference.

? 3. Use Anti-Mould Products Weekly

  • Lightly spray problem areas (grout, silicone, corners)
  • Focus on spots where mould tends to return

? Prevents regrowth instead of waiting for buildup.

? 4. Wash Shower Curtains & Mats

  • Clean or replace regularly
  • Let them dry fully between uses

? Damp fabrics are a hidden source of mould.

?️ 5. Keep a Consistent Temperature

  • Avoid very cold, damp bathrooms
  • Heating slightly helps reduce condensation

? 6. Seal & Maintain Grout/Silicone

  • Damaged sealant = mould comes back fast
  • Recommend resealing if needed

? This is a great upsell/service suggestion for clients.

? What NOT to Do

  • Don’t ignore small spots—they spread quickly
  • Don’t rely only on bleach (it can fade stains but not always kill roots)
