The bathroom is one of the rooms with the most traffic in any house. Restoration can be a big task to take on, but it'll benefit you greatly in the long run. The key is to pick upgrades that fit your routine and way of life. According to the Woodworking Network, homeowners renovate more than 10.2 million kitchens and 14.2 million bathrooms each year. Happiness is the ultimate goal. This explains why 70% of consumers "have a greater desire to be home" after a bathroom restoration, as per the National Association of Realtors' 2019 remodeling report. Read on and learn the secrets.

Answer These Questions

Keep your space in mind as you brainstorm. A few things need to be considered before the old walls are torn down. To start with, take these questions into consideration:

• How much room is available?
  
• How much will remain the same?
• Do you want to renovate the bath, shower, or both?
  
• What shape is the room?
  
• How much storage space is necessary?
  
• Is there room for bathroom supplies, towels, and toiletries?
  
• What characteristics are most crucial?
  

Understand the Basics

When the time comes for a bathroom restoration, you need to know some of the fundamentals. Here are two important aspects of redesigning bathrooms that you should keep in mind before you begin.

Fixtures

Keep the design and colors simple for higher-end elements like bathing areas. If you upgrade as trends change, you can save yourself some money and simplify the process. Additionally, it'll guarantee a wider appeal when selling a house. Use decorative items like mirrors, towels, and floor coverings to instill the space with your personality.

Wet Areas

A building consent is required for level-entry walk-in showers to ensure water tightness above, below, and behind the shower surface and adjacent floors and walls. Convert to mains pressure if the taps drip rather than run. Don't cut corners when it comes to water; it could cost you dearly in the long run. Properly installing and sealing all the bathroom components is essential to maintaining the integrity of the space.
