mouldy bathroom

[Blondeshavemorefun]

not sure how its gone mouldy

prob me not cleaning it enough

tiles round bath have got/gone mouldy in grout and gone black

should be white

how do i fix it - have tried bleach and not working?

thank you

I think there is mildew remover spray available from homebase etc. Then draw over manky grout with a grout whitening pen. And keep your bathroom window open more in future!

Yes I use a mould removing spray from Homebase.
And there was recently a thread singing the praises of Domestos Grotbuster.

fab

will get some mildrew remover and a white pen

bad blonde

Would deffo recommend this - v. effective.

It removed some grim mould on our tiles when we first moved in which mildew spray from homebase wouldn't shift.

Grotbuster! It's fab

That mould spray BlobdieMinx linked to is the one I got from Homebase.

yes you need the domestos grotbuster. Cheap in Tesco now too, it really works.

Another vote for Grotbuster. We don't have a window in our bathroom so it gets a bit black and mucky (ick) and that stuff is fab!

ok

i have brought some mould remover

have sprayed and now waiting while it does its magic

I will keep you all updated

thank you

I used thin bleech in a spray bottle then got some dettol mould and mildew remover (which is ace) and use it once a fortnight as a deterrent. Also I now keep my bathroom window open on the latch all the time.

hmmmmmmmm

have sprayed, left, rinsed and still have mould

will try again

i dont understand why i get mould as the window is often open

Try thin bleach in a spray bottle (I had to put it on neat ) It had an almost immediate effect on the mold.

I just left it on in the end (was gonna scrub and wash it off) but ended up having to rush DD to A&E and by the time I got back it had all dried so I didn't bother

neat bleach is on as i speak - well type -

why did you have to go to A&E?

We have a really old chair that we use as a computer chair and it has thin metal legs, I had sat down and then went to pull the chair up so I was sitting closer to the computer and DD had come out of nowhere (she is 15mo and can be extremely quiet when she wants to be). As I pulled the chair up she put her foot under the leg and then I sat down.

Blood everywhere, couldn't see if her toes/foot were okay, rang mum in tears and legged it to A&E.

ouch

and were toes ok?

the smell of bleach/cleaniness is over powering in my house at the moment

Yes her foot/toes are fine thankyou, looked worse than it was.

I know what you mean about the fumes, our bathroom is downstairs at the end of the kitchen and I had to leave the dogs in the kitchen and was so worried they would be high as a kite when I got back lol.

Domestos Grotbuster. And then keep it really well ventilated.

Domestos Grotbuster is not working

i must have a really grotty bathroom

how long did you leave it on for?

i have tried the grot buster...on mine it seems to be 'bleaching' the mould...ie its now a lighter colour of black but still there!

mine is in the shower...down at the bottom behind the shower door when its open so its difficult to clean....i now have grey grouting!

I put it on, left it overnight then brushed with toothbrush when i went in the shower.

will try again and leave overnight

wideratthehips-same here - now a greyish colour

will update you all tomorrow

I attacked mine with a babywipe one evenng when ds2 was in the bath. Worked a treat!

hmmmmmmmmmmm

parts of my grout have disolved and can be peeled away
