Floor covering in the bathroom

Lighting in the bathroom

Worktop for bathroom
Avoid purchasing a countertop made of wood and other fibrous materials that absorb water well. It is best to use a table top made of glass and quartz.
Wall covering in the bathroom
It is best to choose ceramic or marble tiles that are very resistant to moisture. If you do not cover the whole wall with the tile, then apply a special waterproof film to the rest of the wall to avoid moisture entering the remaining part of the wall and draining it down the tiles.
Use natural cleansers to care for the bathroom

Moreover, ammonia will be further discharged into the sewage system, and pollute the environment. To avoid this, you need to use detergents that decompose with the help of microorganisms. As a rule, manufacturers of detergents write about this on the packaging of their products.

Replace the shower curtains in the bathroom
Most inexpensive shower curtains are polyvinyl chloride, they are resistant to mold, but they can evaporate dioxin (a known carcinogen), and after they are thrown away, they decompose for a very long time in the soil and pollute the environment. Vinyl curtains are less toxic, but they also do not decompose in the soil. It is best to buy cotton or linen shower curtains. Also, curtains can be replaced with glass doors, which will even better contain water.
Replace the bathroom mats
Choose mats made of natural fiber. Give preference to cotton rugs or bamboo mats. Also, the bath mat should be washed or washed once a week.
