4 Things You Should Not Forget During a Bathroom Renovation

December 17, 2018 By Martin MacFarlane Leave a Comment

A bathroom renovation is a time-consuming and detail-oriented project. There are many aspects that must be taken into consideration during the course of the project to ensure you have a space that you — and any potential buyers — will enjoy. Before you just jump in, here are four things you should not forget during your bathroom remodel. 

1. Shower and a Tub? 

Do you need both a shower and a bathtub in the space? While a built-in bathtub is convenient, it is not the most aesthetically appealing. Choosing just one or the other can help you create a statement piece in the bathroom. For example, if you desire a bathtub, consider a freestanding or a clawfoot tub to truly enhance the space. And, if you want a large shower, choose beautiful tile and a glass shower door rather than a shower curtain to make the entire bathroom look more up-to-date and open. 

2. Lights

Not only do you want light fixtures that are beautiful and match the design of the space, but you also want to think about the amount of light you need in the room. Where are you going to place the lights? Will you have the light you need above the vanity or near the shower? Just make sure you don’t make this lighting mistake. 

3. Flooring

The flooring in the bathroom is critical. You not only want something that is easy to maintain and complements your room’s design, but it also needs to resist moisture well. If you really want to splurge and create a luxurious bathroom, consider installing heated floors. 

4. Storage

During your bathroom renovation, the last thing you want to do is sacrifice your storage. You need to ensure there is ample storage for all your necessary items. Consider built-in shelves, large cabinets, and beautiful vanities. If space is limited, work with your contractor to create storage solutions that best match your room and don’t make the area feel too crowded and cluttered. 

No matter what projects you need to complete during your bathroom renovation, it is important that you hire an experienced contractor to assist you throughout the entire project. This professional can not only help you create and design the perfect space, but they can ensure the job is done right the first time.

Additionally, establish a budget for your project and stick to it. While there are many little details that can truly create a luxurious space, they can also break your budget. Set your priorities and be careful you don’t step over your price limit.
