In this article, we outline 5 design choices you can make to help keep your bathroom clean without the hassle of constant cleaning.
Up first, it's no surprise: using bathroom wall panels instead of traditional tiles
Wet wall bathroom panels are large format by nature, making them easier to clean and unlike tiles, you won’t have all those pesky grout lines that can become susceptible to mould build up. Not only that, but they come in a huge variety of finishes allowing you to emulate the look of marble, stone, wood, slate or even concrete if you’re after that industrial aesthetic.
We recommend the Multipanel ‘Soapstone Stellar’ from the Linda Barker Collection.
Number 2 would be your choice of loo (if you’ll pardon the pun)
No one enjoys cleaning their toilet, but there are products out there that make it ever so slightly less objectionable. The RAK Series 600 back-to-wall toilet not only offers a fully enclosed design that is easy to clean, but its Rimless Technology option offers enhanced hygiene and easy cleaning, with no ledges or rim.
Another bathroom cleaning task that can be made simpler for you is cleaning your shower screens.
We love a bit of clever technology and many of the Matki screens have integrated Clear Guard as standard. This clever ‘nano-coating’ allows water to form minute beads which easily trickle off the surface of the glass making it easier to clean and minimising the need for cleaning detergents. The Matki Colonade infold range is just one of their products featuring this fabulous innovation.
Demystifying the bathroom mirror debacle
Talking of avoiding streaky glass, our fourth design choice for easy cleaning is a mirror that doesn’t mist up, so no more dried in swipe marks across your reflection! Whatever shape you prefer, our range of HiB mirrors and cabinets will have something to suit your style. HiB’s Demista Pad technology prevents your mirror from steaming up and can be combined with other exciting features such as colour changing illumination, Bluetooth speakers and wireless phone charging!
Phew, that’s enough mirror gadgetry to make it into James Bond’s bathroom! Two customer favourites are the HiB Sphere LED Ambient Mirror, which comes with an integrated Demista Pad and allows you to personalise the warmth of the light, and the HiB Stratus LED mirror cabinet which includes illumination inside and out, a shaver socket, double sided mirror doors and Demista Pad.
Last but not least, our fifth and final choice of products is a bath-shower mixer tap.
Ok, we know there’s no fancy tech with this one BUT if you’ve ever tried cleaning a bath that doesn’t have one, you’ll know that the scrubbing and rinsing process is definitely up there in back-pain inducing tasks! And let’s face it, if you have a family, it’s always a good idea to have a shower handy for bathing wee ones or fur babies! The Aqua Velar Free-standing Shower-Mixer Bath Tap in black and copper is a contemporary choice but if your home suits more traditional styling then the Kingsbury Bath Filler / Mixer Tap is an option.
We hope you enjoyed our round up of life-changing clean-bathroom products and found something useful for your own bathroom. Our website has more detailed information about all of the products mentioned and we have a customer service team on hand for any other queries.
