Big Ideas for Remodeling Small Bathrooms

small bathroom remodelingSometimes the perfect house, especially if it is an older home, has one big drawback  – small bathrooms.  Remodeling your bathroom based on functionality can make it more pleasing for you,  and it can also add value to your home.

Start With a Good Plan

Putting your new bathroom design ideas down on paper is a good starting point.  If your budget allows, you might just want to start from scratch and redo the entire space.  You can take in an adjoining closet if it is available to increase the overall size.

Decide What is Most Important to You

If enlarging the bathroom is not an option, decide what is most important to you and begin there.  Smaller bathrooms incorporating a tub can be enlarged by removing the tub and installing a standalone shower.  This can dramatically increase the amount of floor space and maneuverability in the bathroom.

Oftentimes, sinks and toilets are too close to each another.  Consider moving the sink to another wall or installing a small marble vanity with a beautifully designed vessel sink on top.

Incorporate Smaller Tub and Sinks to Save Space

Another idea for small bathrooms is to incorporate smaller tubs, sinks, vanity tops, etc.  While there are standard sizes for some of these items, you can certainly find smaller ones.  A small bathroom doesn’t have to equate to a cramped space.  Look at all the options available to you to make this high traffic area of your home more pleasing and functional.
