The Secrets of Bathroom Remodeling

Remodeling any space in your home is an act of love and self care. In altering your space to your needs and preferences, you are giving yourself a gift that keeps on giving. While your tastes will inspire the style of your design, an expert eye can help you to achieve the results you deserve – so that you can enjoy your remodel for years to come. Here are some expert tips and secrets to help you create the bathroom of your dreams.

Make Space

Many people like a bathroom with a lot of open space, so finding as much extra space as possible is a good place to start. If a wall can be moved or removed, this can free up space that can be added to your bathroom. If space cannot be added, you can adjust the layout and or swap out elements of your existing bathroom to allow the space to be more usable and feel bigger. Sometimes, rethinking the configuration of your bathroom can make all the difference in making it seem and feel larger.

Lighten Up

Consider the addition of recessed lighting throughout your ceiling to lighten up the room. Added light can make a room more functional and beautiful. It can also make it seem larger and more spacious. If you’d like to have the option of lighting versatility in your bathroom, consider adding a dimmer switch to the recessed lighting to personalize your lighting. Dim light can be nice for relaxation, while bright light can help you to get ready for the day.

Add Color

Ever thought of adding trim around your bathroom? While whites and cool neutrals are often the most popular choices for bathroom colors, a pop of color can help your space look vibrant and unique. You can add a simple tile trim, vibrant wallpaper, or simply paint an accent wall. Personalizing your space will help you to get the most enjoyment from it.

Out of Sight

Consider adding storage where you can. Bonus points if you can find a way to add storage that does not take up extra space. Luckily, you will likely be able to work with your design build contractor to come up with ways to achieve this.
