Is it weird to vacuum my bathroom?

[LanceStatersGold]

Just that really - friend just popped over whilst I was giving the bathroom a quick spruce and thought it was hilarious - is it?!

My parents, siblings, grandparents etc all do so aside from asking other friends (who I think will give me the face because after all, it doesn’t really matter), I just thought I’d ask!

Do you have a carpet down?

I vacuum mine as it's a tiled floor so it gets the dust up before I mop.

I vacuumed the bathroom this morning. It's a wooden floor, but gets really dusty. So vacuum first, then mop.

I vacuum mine too What else do people do with it?!

No, no carpet. I do like PP and get all the dust /fluff / hair etc up before I mop.

No it's not weird. What else are you supposed to use for the dust and hair and stuff, a broom?

I vacuum before I mop.

My friend says she just mops.

Vacuum then mop, otherwise you're just moving the dust and hair that inevitably gets all over the floor around.

Yeah I thought it was having a carpet in the bathroom! I too vacuum my tiled bathroom floor before mopping it.

I vacuum all the floors before I mop - no carpets whatsoever. Otherwise you just move the dust around with the mop.

I too vacuum before mopping. Otherwise the steam mop just moves the dust around.

I don’t think it’s weird. I have tiles, and vacuumed mine this morning. I didn’t have time to mop, but it looks better for getting rid of the dust, and I can’t be bothered with sweeping.

God yes. Needs be. All the fluff and dust gets caught in the corners and only a hoover will suck that out.

Your friend is no friend of mine

I ldo my kitchen hard floor, so a loo & bathroom is the same surely?

That’s what I thought and I wasn’t
planning on not doing it. She just seemed totally bamboozled as if I was adding in an unnecessary task.

I sometimes hoover the cistern top and edge of the bath as well as the floor.

Always vacuum then mop.

Another vac-n-mop advocate here.

Thank goodness. Like I say, I know it’s not a big deal but I thought it was going to be another of those weird quirks I think are completely normal!

I sweep then mop, but if I could be arsed to get the hoover in there, I’d do that.

Not weird. I hoover first.

I vacuum all of my floors. The hard ones need vacuuming before mopping. Otherwise, as PP’s have said, the mop gets gummed up with bits, crumbs, hair, fluff, dust, etc. Vile.

Ours gets done about twice a week. Hoovered, then cleaned with a cloth & Stardrops.

Huh? How else would you remove all the dust, hair etc? I HATE mopping a floor that hasn't been swept or vacuumed properly, all the dust goes all gross and sticks to everything!

I always vacuum before mopping, think it's much stranger not to!
