hi,
I am 17 and a bit worried about my job that starts today cleaning houses. Vacuuming, sweeping, dusting, and organizing are all pretty simple. However, I’ve never had to clean a shower/bath tub or a toilet before, atleast not to the expected standard. Can you give me tips on cleaning those two things? (It seems self explanatory, but I don’t want to mess up, or not do something right and come off as lazy).

To clean the tub/shower and sink, use a Mr. Clean eraser. I won’t scratch or harm your hands.
In case you aren’t aware – NEVER mix chemicals – especially ammonia and bleach (or products containing them). Ammonia and bleach together make a toxic gas that can kill you. Use caution and read labels.
i like Soft Scrub to take off soap scum. Scrubbing bubbles is also good.
You’ll need a sponge with at least one side that is rough.
rinse thoroughly.
I wouldn’t use anything harsher than that, it may destroy the finish or the shine of the tub.
You put some cleaner product on a wet sponge go down on your knees and go all around the tub in a circling motion and rinse with cold water to remove any soap residue if you like you can dry the tub with a paper towel to make it shine,
example: if you ever watched the movie Karate Kid, remember when he was doing the wax on wax off motion? well that ‘s it!
For the toilet, I use a brush ,rubber gloves and Pinesol you could use it for the tub as well it’s my favourite to clean things around the house ,it’s refreshing and also deodorize and disinfect , make sure that you clean under the rim, the brush might not reach there so you need to keep a sponge just for that area if you have your own cleaning bag , remember to keep it in a bag or box and mark it "toilet only" this way you wont use it anywhere else around the house.
It’s very simple. I use a cleaner called "Awesome". It is wonderful and it only costs a dollar. Any dollar store or Wal-mart should have it. All you do is spray it on the toilet and tub and let it set for about 10 minutes while you clean something else. When you return, all of the dirt and grim will wipe right off with no problem. Also, if you can not get a hold of Awesome, then use a spray bottle with clorox mixed with water and it will have the same effect.
I like to use powdered comet, clorox disenfecting bathroom cleaner, scrub brush, old toothbrush, paper towels, and a clean sponge
1.I start by removing everything in the shower
2.I then spray the bathroom cleaner eveywhere, let it sit for a couple minutes(10 min.) recommened
3.After you have let it sit spray it some more everywhere and wipe with a slightly damp sponge(this includes the basin, walls, around it)
4. then take comet and sprinkle it in the basin of the tub, with some water to make a paste, let it sit
5. scrub everywhere with the scrub brush and old toothbrush(hard to reach places)
6. rinse everything down
7. spray your bathroom cleaner everywhere one more time and wipe down with a paper towel
Toilet:
Get a toilet bowl cleaner and a toilet scrubber
clorox bathroom cleaner, paper towels
1. flush the toilet
2.put your toilet bowl cleaner everywhere and under the rim, let it sit for 10 minutes
3. scrub everywhere really good
4. spray your bathroom cleaner everywhere around the toilet(lid, seat, tank, handle, base)
everywehre, let it sit
5. scrub the toilet again, flush
6.After letting the cleaner sit, spray some more and wipe with paper towels
***when your cleansers are sitting, you should be cleaning other stuff such as the sinks and mirrors
