A bathroom is an essential part of any home, so updating this space or adding a new bathroom is one of the best ways to add value to your home. You want a bathroom to be both functional and stylish. A bathroom reno or addition is one way to improve the salability of a home or make it more practical for any homeowner.
Swap out old tapware
Simply changing tapware can modernise a dated bathroom. A new tap is a simple and cost-effective way to slowly add incremental improvements to your space. Popular finishes like satin or brushed nickel pair well with most tiles. For a more classic look, chrome is a good choice.
Improve lighting
While it often gets overlooked, light is one of the most important elements in bathroom design. When undergoing a bathroom renovation, you’ll likely have a combination of natural lighting and artificial lighting. Incorporate as much natural light as possible with windows and maybe a skylight to the bathroom design. Have sufficient lighting installed especially in the vanity.
Add storage
Not including enough storage in a bathroom renovation is a common mistake. Add storage behind the mirror, in the sink, and with shelving.
Invest in a bathtub
If you want a bathtub, make sure there’s enough space and you choose the right kind. Consider the needs of the space and the person who will be using it. For example, you may not really need a huge spa bath if you’re renovating a one-bedroom apartment.
Luxurious extras
You may want to include some luxury features to make it extra special. For example, installing heated floors is a small touch that homeowners say is one of the best investments they’ve made.Plus, heated floors can help you keep the main thermostat slightly lower during the winter. Another luxury feature is heated towel rails to keep bath towels and robes at the perfect temperature.
