Essential Guide to Planning a Bathroom Remodel

If you move to a new home and there is a bathroom that is a little less than desirable, then naturally, it will be one of the first rooms you want to renovate. Bathrooms can feel like a lot of work, but they shouldn’t be something leaving you feeling daunted. There are some tips and tricks to help you to plan the remodel of a bathroom. After all, it is one of the rooms in the house that can be used functionally, as well as for relaxing. That is why designing it right will help it to serve the multiple purposes that it has.

Start by assessing your bathroom needs

In order to know the best way to renovate, you need to think about what needs this bathroom needs to fulfill. Will it be just for you? Just for the kids? For the whole family? When you know who will use it, you can think about how best to use the space. A double sink and large shower may not be needed if it is just for you, but double sinks and a large bathtub would be perfect for a family.

Speak to professionals

When you are planning out your design, you need to speak to someone in the know to see if your plans are feasible. When it comes to bathrooms, talking to professionals like Ritz Plumbing could be a good idea. This is because a plumber will know what is and isn’t possible, especially when it comes to the positioning and placement of your bathroom installations.

Don’t forget about ventilation

The bathroom is a room in the home that can fill up with a lot of steam and humidity. You can’t forget about this when planning a bathroom remodel. If you have plenty of windows in the bathroom, then that is half of the job taken care of. However, if you don’t have many windows, then making proper plans to have the right kind of ventilation will make a difference to the bathroom and prevent a build-up of mildew and mold.

Remember storage

The bathroom isn’t a room in the home that needs a lot of storage. However, it still needs some, and when planning, it can be easily forgotten about. When you have space to put everything away that you need to, such as shampoo bottles and towels, it will leave the room looking spotless and less cluttered. So don’t forget about how much storage you want as you plan the kind of sinks or cupboards that you will have in the bathroom.

Good lighting

The bathroom is a space to get clean and get ready, as well as a space to rest and relax. So you should get the lighting right so that it is truly fit for purpose. One of the things to think about is the kind of lights that you have, but where they are placed. One single light won’t be enough in a bathroom, which is why several lights in the ceiling is a good idea. You could also consider a light-up mirror and side wall lights too.
