Stuck and unhappy with a small bathroom? Tired of the half bath everyone tends to ignore? The small bath of your dreams is within reach! You just need some creative ideas and the right contractor to bring it to life.
Small Bathroom Remodeling
There are a number of ways to improve your small bathroom. From choosing the right plumbing fixtures and hardware to picking tile, wallpaper, and paint colors that help the bathroom feel larger - a small bath remodel specialist can help you achieve the best look for your small bathroom.
Small Bathroom Toilets
Depending on the size of your bathroom, and whether it has just a toilet and a sink or a shower too, there are a wide variety toilet options for your bathroom. You could choose a traditional toilet with a narrow design or free-up even more space with a wall-mounted toilet.
Consider installing a floating vanity or cupboard above the toilet to save even more space!
Small Bathroom Sinks
Pedestal sinks are often found in small bathrooms, however, they too can sometimes take up too much space. If there's room for one, consider a vanity sink with a single shelf - the open design of a vanity sink can help the bathroom feel larger than a traditional cabinet sink, and also allow for more storage options.
Another great option is a floating sink - or wall-mounted sink. The vast amount of variety of sinks on the market should allow you to find the style you want in a size that will work in your small bathroom. Narrow bathroom? Consider a trough sink! Or maybe a corner sink is the perfect fit for your smaller bathroom remodeling project.
Small Bathroom Showers and Bathtubs
While half baths traditionally only have a toilet and a sink, one of your home's main bathrooms (with a shower and/or tub) may be on the small side too and in need of some renovation.
Shower curtains and door-less showers are a great option for small bathrooms - which are often too small and uncomfortable to fully open a swinging shower door.
Or you could go with a corner shower! Corner-oriented plumbing fixtures - toilets, sinks, and showers - are popular choices for small bathrooms.
Will if fit? Prefabricated showers and tubs found at hardware stores can limit your options. You must have the space to fit their fixed dimensions when what you need is for the dimensions to fit your space!
Consider a custom shower solution - a local remodeling specialist can help you design and install a custom shower to fit perfectly in your small bathroom. Whether installing a ceiling-mounted showerhead or a brand new floor drain, a custom built shower might be the answer.
Small Bathroom Design Ideas
Besides your plumbing fixtures and hardware, there are a number of design choices that can help with your small bathroom. When choosing a pattern for a small bathroom, whether tile, paint, or wall paper, go with a large-scale design - it will help the space feel larger. Lighter, neutral tones go a long way!
Choose pricier materials. The great thing about a small bathroom is it's small! A smaller size means smaller hardware, smaller fixtures, and less materials. This may afford you the opportunity to upgrade to the higher-priced options.
