Posted by Adam Chard in How to guides | 3 years ago 2 min read

Deep cleaning your shower enclosure or shower screen is a simple and hygienic way to bring back that new bathroom sparkle. In our latest Quick Fixes guide with video, we’ll show you how to achieve the best results.

If you’ve already fitted a new shower enclosure or shower screen, you’re bound to recall the pride you felt when it was all shiny and new. However, without regular care and maintenance, it can begin to lose its lustre over time. That’s why it pays to give it a thorough clean, at least once a month.

To help you do this quickly and effectively, we’ve created this short video and step by step guide.

Here’s how to clean a shower screen or enclosure

  1. Clear out your shower enclosure or the area around your shower screen. Remove toiletries, shower mats and anything that’s not fixed in.

  1. Clean everything you remove and throw away or recycle items that never get used.

Dispose and recycle

  1. To clean the enclosure or screen use a standard shower cleaning product and a damp sponge to remove the soap scum and dirt.

  1. Once you have scrubbed the entire shower enclosure or screen rinse with cold water.

  1. To combat limescale and water marks, use a squeegee to remove as much excess water once you have rinsed the enclosure. Not only will the screen dry faster, it should also dry relatively clear and smudge-free.
