One of the best things about having a new bathroom is that it feels clean and fresh. Often, it also feels like it is a total step away from the rest of your home, especially if this is the first room that you have renovated for a while, or even at all.

However, for you to keep reliving the delight of your bathroom renovation every time you open the door, you are going to have to put some effort into the way it looks.

#1 Don’t Let the Clutter Back In

Most bathrooms are heavily cluttered places, full of plastic unattractive bottles containing a multitude of different toiletries. It is highly likely that once your bathroom is completed, there will be a time when these bottles and containers are not present.

Although some are a necessity and not practical to permanently keep in a cupboard, there are ways in which you can make them look more attractive. This is achieved by purchasing decorative pump action bottles that complement each other and your bathroom and decanting your toiletries into them.

#2 Look After Your Worktops

If your new bathroom has areas with a wooden worktop, you will need to keep it clean and dry or risk your water seeping into the wood and turning it black. This is a precaution that should be taken even if your wooden areas are sealed with wax, varnish, or oil.

No doubt, your designers or installers will take time to tell you how to care for the surfaces in your bathroom, but it can be heart-wrenchingly hard, not to mention expensive, if your worktop ends up having to be replaced due to water damage.

#3 Check for Wear and Tear

This said, it is not just your sink area that you will have to watch. If you have shower screens installed in your bathroom, you will also have to pay attention to the seal around them. As they get older, you may find that they start to deteriorate and start to let water seep into areas where you will not want it to be. These, however, can be very easily sourced and replaced. Stores, such as The Shower Seal Shop, have a good array of different types on offer to be purchased.

#4 Keep on Top of Your Cleaning Regime

A deterrent is certainly better than a cure here. Spending hours cleaning and scrubbing a bathroom so it shines is something that only appeals to a very small number of individuals. By looking after your bathroom whenever it is used and carrying out a small amount of cleaning at any one time, you will endeavor to keep your bathroom looking new and fresh whenever you enter it.

For instance, using a squeegee after every shower on your glass screen and high gloss tiles will keep them shiny and free from limescale build-up. It is also a good idea to wipe down any chrome after a steamy shower, to keep its appearance mirror bright.

Final Thoughts

Bathroom renovations are not cheap and should, therefore, be treated with love and care after the work has been finished. Taking a little time just to make sure that everything is kept as it should be not only makes the room more welcoming but will also extend the appearance of your new bathroom for years to come.
