What's your best cleaning tip/advice?

I used to hate cleaning but with the kids grown up now I have started to like doing a big clean on a Monday (then smaller cleans during the week) when they're off at school/college and DH is at work. I love looking around at how good it looks afterwards (and the smell 😍)
BUT two things that are driving me mad is how to stop my shiny tiles from being streaky (I mop with hot soapy water and then go over them with a dry wipe on the flash mop) and also the glass shower door is just disgusting. I've tried vinegar, a squeegie, various glass cleaners etc and while it looks ok for a few hours it looks grimy again pretty quickly.

Any suggestions for those or just all round tips that you can't believe works so well?

Hire a cleaner! 😅

Boiling water with a touch of dish soap for 90% of things, a bit of vinegar for the rest

Clean down every time you’re in the shower with Fairy liquid. Keeps it clean & the WU is harmless on your skin.

Not so much cleaning but housework.

I bought an extra wide ironing board, mainly for bedding. It really does make for efficient ironing.
