Here are a few ideas on how you might do small bathroom remodels.
Tubs and wall systems
Tthere are many choices when it comes to bathtubs/showers and the surrounding walls. We offer acrylic tub liners and wall surrounds, as well as replacement tubs and shower pans. These products are available in a variety of colors and tile patterns. Depending on the budget, we also offer solid surface wall systems, Marblestone, and ceramic tile. This will enable us to help you create the bathroom of your dreams without “breaking the bank”.
Vanity Replacement
This is not necessarily the easiest part of a small bathroom remodeling project, but it is a quick way to update the appearance. Many homeowners don’t realize that if the vanity is replaced, the footprint often is effected, thus the need to redo the floor. If you prefer, you can replace your vanity with a wall or pedestal sink, however the plumbing typically won’t line up with the current plumbing. You will not have to re-route pipes as part of your small bathroom remodel.
In-Wall Cabinets
In-wall cabinets fit between the studs and reduce the distance they protrude from the wall. Since they do not protrude as far into the room, they save space while providing storage. A small bathroom remodel can easily incorporate this task.
Toilet Replacement
A toilet replacement is often part of your small bathroom remodeling project. A new toilet is not only more efficient, it will also help update the look and provide more comfort for your bath remodeling project. We offer a variety of options in this area; one piece toilets versus two piece toilets, elongated bowls versus round bowls, Comfort height as opposed to standard white toilets.
Flooring
There are many options when it comes to flooring for your bathroom remodeling project. We offer laminate flooring, as well as tile flooring. Laminate flooring can look and feel like a much more expensive product then it actually is. Tile flooring can be as fancy as your imagination and budget allow.
Mirrors
Many small bathroom remodeling projects forget this inexpensive technique. Large mirrors will reflect the room and make it look much larger. They will also bounce light around the room, making it seem airy.
Tub/shower doors
Once we’ve transformed your outdated tub or shower area into a beautiful new Oasis, having us supply and install a frameless or semi-frameless shower door with clear glass will appear to add space to the room.
Little Things
Little things mean a lot. Look around your bathroom for ways to make it appear roomier. Light colors tend to make the room feel larger, dark colors are warm however make the room feel smaller. Additionally bright decorative window curtains also enhance the look of your small bathroom remodel. Avoid too many accessories such as large towel bars. Fold towels on smaller bars. Hang double towel bars to use wall space.
