4. Remove soap scum from tiles and shower doors by running a damp tumble dryer sheet over them.

5. Old toothbrushes are good for cleaning grout around your bathroom tiles, taps and tights spaces around the sink.

6. To remove limescale build up on shower heads, place a ziploc bag half filled with a combination of bicarbonate of soda and white vinegar and leave for a few hours. Rinse shower head once bag is removed.

7. Clean slats on a bathroom blind by using an old sock. Slightly dampen the sock and place on your hand to wipe dust and grime from the blind.
