Bathrooms are one of the most underrated yet important spaces in a home. While it is not a room that will immediately catch a guest’s attention like the drawing-room, it’s required to be highly functional. This is because, firstly, it’s the place where one starts their day, so why not make it aesthetically appealing? If designed strategically, it can be made better with efficient storage and spacing. Also, this particular area is always prone to moisture, so as a contractor, you need to be extra careful while working on bathroom remodelling projects and ensure the safety of both your team & customer. In this blog post, we’re going to talk about some bathroom remodelling factors you must take into consideration.
Single Colour
A bathroom has several things that can be colour coordinated. The walls, cabinets, sink, vanity and bathtub are a few to name.
For the people who like to keep it simple but stylish, going with a single colour is perfect. Choosing white will get you easy and affordable options. Other impressive colours for the bathroom are teal, lavender and grey.
Dedicated Shower Area
Most bathrooms have an open shower in them. Nowadays, that is considered old-school and inelegant.
A dedicated shower area is an enclosed area for a shower. The water stays in the area, which leaves the rest of the bathroom dry. This is preferred by buyers, too.
Dual-Tone
The minimalistic trend is going strong but people might not be fans of keeping a single colour. If one colour is too plain for your client’s taste, a dual-tone setting can be suggested.
Colour combinations like- gold-white, burgundy-white, black-grey, etc. can bring a different style. There are two effective ways of using the dual-tone style. You can either get fixtures with each of the colours or ones that have a base colour with border finishing off the other one.
Tub & Overhead Shower
Both these additions are adored by owners. You can give the bathroom an interesting look by combining the two.
The bathtub is made the centre of attention. With the hand-held shower, add an overhead shower. Placement of the shower is key here, so run it by your client before fixing it. A wall-mounted toilet pairs well with this sophisticated look.
Wallpaper
If the paint is too mainstream to suggest, the right wallpaper can be a unique yet tasteful option.
Paint, especially in bathrooms, end up requiring more maintenance. Standard wallpapers work fine as long as they are away from the splash area. There are water-resistant sheets nowadays to avoid that problem altogether. The best wall for this is the one with the vanity on it.
Introduce Technology
Yes, technology has made its way to the bathrooms too!
Smart lights allow switching the light on and off from a smartphone. A smart geyser lets the owner set the exact temperature before they enter the bath.
Small Bathroom
Working with a small bathroom can be tricky. The client might ask for a new look without expanding the area.
Drop the tub and focus on getting a good shower setting. Draw attention to other parts of the bathroom by upgrading the vanity. Strategically place the cabinets to use the available space to its best. If your client agrees, you can make a few structural changes to their bathroom.
These ideas will get the heads turning. Bathroom remodels should be done with utmost care because of the plumbing involved. Here are a few tips to keep in mind while doing a quick bathroom remodel.
