There’s been a rising case of bathroom accidents sending people to their early graves (God, abeg), and it’s time to take some precautionary measures.
Smooth surface or not, if your bathroom floor is tiled you need to do these eight things.
Avoid tiles with smooth surfaces
You need to call a tiler ASAP if your bathroom tiles have smooth surfaces. Go for something with a rough surface instead.

The walls in your bathroom should never be completely bare. Get a plumber to install grab bars, so you can have something to hold onto in case of accidents.

Don’t be tempted to dance
No, really, save your moves for the dance floor. Your only business in the bathroom is to clean up and leave.
Get bathroom slippers

Not your crocs, dear. There are bathroom slippers with super grip features that could save your life.
Avoid raising one leg
This is calling for it, and a lot of us are guilty. A better alternative is to bend down and wash your legs properly. You can also sit in your bathtub. It’s safer.
Have a grip mat at the entrance

You should always dry your feet before heading to other parts of the room. You want to take this to heart if the rest of your house is tiled.
Save the intercourse for your bedroom
You’re not in Fifty Shades of Grey, dear. This is real life. Sex in the bathroom means multiple movements that are risky on all levels.
Wash your floors frequently
A dirty bathroom floor means a build up of slime, and that’s not good for anyone. It takes less than five minutes to hard brush your floor after bathing.
