How do I clean glass shower screens in Nairobi?

Glass shower screens in Nairobi homes cloud rapidly with hard water deposits and soap scum. With the right technique, they can be restored to clarity and kept clear easily.

Daily Prevention (30 seconds)

• Squeegee the glass after every shower — removes water before minerals deposit. This one habit reduces cleaning frequency by 75%.
• Leave the shower door open after use to allow steam to escape and prevent condensation buildup

Weekly Cleaning

1. Mix equal parts white vinegar and washing-up liquid in a spray bottle
2. Spray generously on the glass; leave 10–15 minutes
3. Scrub with a non-scratch sponge in circular motions
4. Rinse thoroughly with clean water
5. Squeegee dry and buff with a microfibre cloth for a streak-free finish

Monthly Deep Treatment

• Apply a paste of baking soda + washing-up liquid to the glass
• Leave 20 minutes, scrub, rinse clean
• Apply a proprietary glass protector (Rain-X or similar) — creates a hydrophobic coating that repels water and dramatically reduces scale buildup

Very Heavy Limescale

For severely calcified shower screens, a proprietary shower screen descaler (Viakal or similar) left for 30–60 minutes will dissolve even heavy deposits. Bestcare's bathroom deep clean uses professional descaling products that restore heavily fogged screens to clarity.
