Hello from the Nestiva Shower Cleaning Team!

At Nestiva, we believe a clean and organised space is the foundation for a happier, more productive life. As a professional domestic and semi-commercial cleaning and organising company, we are dedicated to transforming homes and businesses across the Western Cape. Today, we are pulling back the curtain to introduce you to the heart of our service—our incredible team—and sharing one of our favourite professional tips for maintaining your bathroom sanctuary!

A clean home is a healthy home, especially in high-moisture areas like bathrooms where bacteria and mineral scale can accumulate. Whether you are in the heart of Cape Town or the coastal reaches of the Strand, our goal is to provide a service that is so thorough you can simply relax and enjoy your space.

The Heart of Our Service: The Nestiva Team

More than just a cleaning company, Nestiva is a collective of highly trained, dedicated, and passionate professionals. Our team members are the primary reason we are trusted in so many homes and businesses throughout Cape Town and surrounds, the Winelands, and the Strand Gordons Bay area.

  • Professionalism & Trust: Every member of the Nestiva team is carefully vetted and trained to meet our exacting standards. We pride ourselves on reliability, discretion, and delivering a consistent, high-quality service every single time.
  • Dedication to Detail: We don’t just clean—we organise, sanitise, and refresh. Our goal is to ensure you step into a space that is not only spotless but perfectly ordered. This is why our Deep Cleaning service remains a favourite for those looking to truly revitalise their property.
  • Local Expertise: We understand the unique environmental factors of the Western Cape, from the fine dust of the inland areas to the salt spray that necessitates frequent Window Cleaning along the coast.

When you book with Nestiva, you are not just hiring a cleaner; you are welcoming a trusted professional into your space who is committed to providing peace of mind and an exceptional clean.

Sparkling Showers: A Simple Guide to Cleaning Your Shower Head

Over time, mineral deposits from our water supply and soap scum can clog your shower head. This leads to weak water pressure, uneven spray patterns, and a less-than-luxurious experience. Luckily, a deep clean is surprisingly easy using items you likely already have in your pantry.

Here is Nestiva’s simple, effective method:

What you’ll need:

  • White Vinegar
  • A sturdy plastic bag (sandwich or freezer size)
  • A rubber band or sturdy twist tie
  • An old toothbrush (optional for detailing)

Step-by-Step Instructions:

  1. Fill the Bag: Pour enough white vinegar into the plastic bag to fully submerge the nozzles of the shower head.
  2. Soak the Head: Secure the bag over your shower head using the rubber band or twist tie. Ensure the head is completely soaking in the vinegar.
  3. Wait and Watch: Leave the shower head to soak for at least 30 minutes. For heavily clogged heads with significant limescale, we recommend leaving it overnight. The vinegar’s mild acidity will safely dissolve the mineral buildup without damaging the finish.
  4. Rinse and Scrub: Remove the bag and run the hot water to flush out any remaining residue from the inside. If needed, use an old toothbrush to lightly scrub off any stubborn grime from the individual nozzles.
  5. Enjoy: Step back and enjoy your newly restored water pressure and sparkling clean shower!

Comprehensive Bathroom Care

While the shower head is a quick win, the rest of the bathroom often requires a more intensive approach. Grout lines and silicone seals are notorious for harbouring mould and mildew. Our professional Steam Cleaning service is the ultimate solution for these areas, using high-heat vapour to sanitise surfaces and remove deep-seated bacteria without the need for harsh chemicals.

For those moving into a new home, our Move-In / Move-Out Cleaning includes a full sanitisation of all bathrooms, ensuring that your new space is hygienic and ready for use from the moment you arrive.
