Plan carefully – clean less Five tips for bathroom planning

Design the floor plan of the bathroom carefully to suit your requirements. Bathrooms should have as few corners and edges as possible. Without them, cleaning can be taken care of quickly and efficiently. On this note, plan to conceal as many unnecessary dust traps in the bathroom – such as cisterns, pipes and cables – behind the wall. You can even position traps and mirror cabinets behind or in the wall with a clever choice of products.

Moving straight on to the clever planning of your shower. Shower trays generate corners and edges – and they are more time-consuming to clean. However, there are simple and stylish ways of avoiding this in your bathroom. Floor-even showers are now available in the form of a shower surface made of a solid surface material, for example. It is also a good idea to continue the tiling or floor panels into the shower niche. In your bathroom, you should plan just one drain in the form of a shower channel in the floor or as a wall drain. This shower drain with its small combs is generally easier to clean than a standard shower drain.

Cleaning thoroughly around corners and edges is – as already mentioned – painstaking and troublesome. You can avoid this by planning the room carefully, but also by choosing the right bathroom furniture and toilets. If bathroom furniture and the toilet are hung on the prewall, a space results underneath that is easy to clean. Around 15 cm is the ideal distance between the floor and lower edge of the toilet or furniture. This allows for easy access with a mop or other cleaning utensils.
