Guide to Bathroom Upgrade

Though the bathroom may not be the biggest room in the house, it is probably the most important. It is your personal private space where you can contemplate the day gone by. If you are thinking of upgrading your bathroom, there are many ways to make it feel more pleasant and relaxing. Your bathroom is important enough to update to where it can affect the value of your entire home. Creating the right feel in the bathroom is therefore vital.

If it’s been some time since you last upgraded, you may need to change out the bath, shower, toilet and wash basin. Any old or shabby appliances will stand out as these form the basis of the room. Depending on the type of look you are after there are numerous suites to choose from, ranging from sleek, modern designs through to more classical or retro collections. You will no doubt have a budget to stay within and therefore will need to shop around to work out prices and availability. The most high-end bathroom designs come from companies that create bespoke designs. At the opposite end of the budget, very affordable suites can be sought from high street stores or online. Besides the design, you need to include the fitting costs into your budget. If it is too big of a task to install your bathroom components yourself, you can have the companies you bought them from install it for you.

If you are not able to replace the entire bathroom at the moment, there are more inexpensive options. You can simply replace the knobs and taps for the bathtub or wash basin with something more modern to give your bathroom the extra flair. Alternatively, you may want to replace a tatty shower curtain with a clear screen to provide a cleaner look and feel. These options are very affordable and very easy to upgrade. You could also replace the tiles on the wall or floor making your bathroom look even cleaner. Try to ensure that any flooring, whether it is tiles, wood or carpet, is compatible to use in a humid bathroom environment.

Other than changing out the main appliances in your bathroom, you can easily do other things to give your bathroom a brand new look. Decide on a color scheme that suits your mood. You could easily enhance the bathroom with bath mats, curtains, blinds or nice fluffy towels. Again, there is a huge choice of these available, so have fun deciding on your look. You can also add some color to the bathroom by adding pictures and paintings or you can create a focal point like potted plants or scented candles. The candles can also create a sensual mood with its aroma. You can also do other inexpensive yet effective changes like adding a new toilet roll holder, a new soap dispenser or a toilet brush.

Also, you should try to keep your bathroom clutter free by hiding away stuff you don’t really need at that moment.
