There are many reasons to improve your bathroom, including the joy and tranquility you should feel while spending time in a private and intimate space by making it more aesthetically on-trend while meeting you personal day-to-day needs.
Tip One: Update the Fixtures
Replacing old or outdated fixtures can give your bathroom a fresh, modern look for that spa-like experience in the comfort of your home.
There are several fixtures that you might consider updating in a bathroom:
- Faucets: Updating the faucets in your bathroom can give it a fresh, modern look. Consider choosing a new faucet with a stylish finish, like chrome or brushed nickel, and a design that fits with your bathroom’s overall style.
- Showerhead: Replacing an old or outdated showerhead can improve the functionality of your shower, making you feel refreshed and rejuvenated. There are many different types of showerheads available, including rain showerheads, handheld showerheads, and multi-function showerheads.
- Toilet: If you have an old or inefficient toilet, consider replacing it with a new, more efficient model. Newer toilets use less water per flush, which can save you money on your water bill and help conserve resources.
- Towel bars: Replacing old or damaged towel bars with new ones can improve the overall look of your bathroom. Consider choosing towel bars in a finish that matches your other bathroom hardware, like faucets and cabinet handles. A cohesive space aids in a calm mind.
- Mirrors: A new mirror can make a big difference in the overall look of your bathroom. Consider choosing a mirror with a stylish frame or one that is larger in size to help make your bathroom feel bigger.
Updating one or more of these fixtures can help improve the time you spend in a bathroom that complements your aesthetic and functional needs.
Tip Two: Install a New Vanity
A new vanity can add storage space and improve the overall look of your bathroom. Premier Kitchen & Bath recommends considering a vanity with plenty of drawers and cabinets to keep your bathroom clutter-free for a seamless experience when preparing for your busy day.
Tip Three: Add New Lighting
Good lighting is important in any bathroom and adding new fixtures or replacing old ones can make a big difference. Premier Kitchen & Bath recommends considering light sconces on either side of the mirror or a chandelier above the tub for a more elegant look.
Tip Four: Replace the Flooring
Old or worn-out flooring can make a bathroom feel dated. Consider replacing it with new tile, stone, or wood for a fresh, updated look. Premier Kitchen & Bath recommends selecting a waterproof flooring option as it will resist any moisture or humidity that occurs in a bathroom. Waterproof vinyl flooring and tile are two of the most popular choices for bathroom flooring.
Tip Five: Paint the Walls
Set the ambiance for your sanctuary with a fresh coat of paint. Consider a neutral color like white or beige, or go bold with a bright, bold hue.
Tip Six: Install a New Shower or Tub
Consider the experience that makes you feel refreshed by replacing an old, outdated shower or tub with a new one. There are many options available, including walk-in showers and soaking tubs. Premier Kitchen & Bath offers a variety of custom shower and tub options tailored to your desired experience.
Tip Seven: Add Storage
We know the impact that organization can have for your busy life, so if your bathroom lacks storage space, consider adding some new cabinets or shelving to keep your bathroom clutter-free and organized.
There are many storage options that can be added to a bathroom to help keep it organized and clutter-free:
- Over-the-toilet storage: This type of storage unit is designed to fit over the toilet and provide additional space for towels, toiletries, and other bathroom essentials.
- Shelving: Adding shelving to your bathroom can provide additional space for storing towels, toiletries, and other items. Consider installing a shelf above the toilet or adding floating shelves to an empty wall.
- Cabinets: Installing new cabinets in your bathroom can provide plenty of additional storage space. Consider choosing cabinets with pull-out drawers or shelves to make it easier to access items.
- Baskets: Woven baskets or bins can be a stylish and practical way to add storage to your bathroom. They can be used to store towels, toiletries, and other items and can be tucked away in a corner or under a sink.
- Under-sink organizers: If you have a small bathroom, consider using an organizer specifically designed to fit under the sink. These organizers often have multiple compartments and can help make the most of the space under your sink.
- Medicine cabinet: A medicine cabinet is a great place to store medications, first aid supplies, and other small items. Consider installing a new medicine cabinet with mirrors on the front and inside to help make your bathroom feel larger.
Tip Eight: Update the Hardware
Love even the small details of your bathroom by replacing old or outdated hardware with new, stylish options.
There are a few factors to consider when choosing hardware for a bathroom:
- Finish: Choose a finish that will complement your bathroom’s overall style and color scheme. Popular options include chrome, brushed nickel, and oil-rubbed bronze.
- Durability: Bathroom hardware should be able to withstand moisture and frequent use. Look for options made from durable materials like stainless steel or brass.
- Style: There are many different styles of bathroom hardware available, ranging from traditional to modern. Consider the overall aesthetic of your bathroom and choose hardware that fits in with your desired look.
- Functionality: Make sure the hardware you choose is functional and easy to use. For example, handles on cabinets and drawers should be easy to grip and operate.
- Matching sets: It’s often a good idea to choose matching sets of hardware for a cohesive look. This includes things like faucets, handles, and towel bars.
Ultimately, the best hardware for a bathroom will depend on your personal preferences and the overall style of your bathroom. The design experts at Premier Kitchen & Bath can help you compare options to find the hardware that works best for your bathroom style.
