Getting rid of mould in the bathroom

Your bathroom could end up with mould growing in different areas if you do not have enough ventilation in your bathroom. Not only does mould look unpleasant, it is also very unhygienic and can lead to serious illnesses in some cases. Mould will develop in the areas that are the most exposed to water, such as the shower, bath and sink. Wallpaper and carpet can also become mouldy. Having a bathroom that is free of mould will be much safer and more comfortable for you, your family and your guests.

If you do find that there has been a build up of mould in your bathroom, then the best solution is to scrub it away with bleach and water. If bleach does not work, then HG Mould Spray may be the best solution. This spray removes black mould from tile grouts, plaster, toilets, showers and many other areas. It is available from a variety of stores and is usually priced at £4.95. It may be available at a cheaper price at online stores such as eBay or Amazon. HG also offers shower and basin spray and shower shield, which prevents build up of lime scale.

To prevent mould from building up, install an extractor fan or open your windows after a bath to let the steam out. Wipe all areas that have had water exposed to them after you have had a bath or a shower. Keep a bottle of mould spray or a selection of other cleaning products close by so that you can quickly get rid of any mould that has built up.

    I have often found that with a bit of hard work and elbow grease, that bleach will usually get rid of the worst areas that are covered in mould.

    Ventilation is crucial to prevent mould growth within wet room areas.
    Extractor fans offer a great solution to remove vapour content from within the wet rooms atmosphere but they have to be sized correctly according to your room otherwise you might as well be purchasing an expensive cosmetic accessory for your bathrrom.
