Plumbing

         The bathroom is one of the most important rooms in the house and a well designed bathroom can be practically invaluable. The type of bathroom you install will depend primarily on what your needs are. For example, you may require a large shower, or a bath for the kids. Perhaps you are limited space-wise and wish to incorporate a laundry into your bathroom space. However, bathroom renovations or installations can be expensive, so it is important to keep your budget in mind. Luckily, the benefits of a better bathroom more than pay for themselves, whether you are using it yourself or plan to renovate to improve resale value.

 

If you are renovating your bathroom, it is a great idea to look at what your existing fittings and see which of them can stay. If you have a bath or tiles that are in fundamentally good condition but look a little dated or tired, why not consider resurfacing them? Tiles can also be painted over using a special tile paint. Wherever it is possible, leave the plumbing and electricals in place unless there is a compelling reason to move them. From a structural point of view, it is important that the bathroom is well-ventilated and properly waterproofed. This will both prevent the buildup of mould and also water damaging the structural elements of your home.

 

There are several different styles of bathrooms but the most common ones are retreat, minimalist, high tech, utilitarian and colonial. The colour scheme in a bathroom can be an important choice and if you are after a classic look that will always remain in style, consider using neutral colours or whites. Accents can always be added through the use of colourful accessories such as towels, bathmats and ornaments. If you have a smaller bathroom, you can easily make it look larger through clever use of larger tiles, mirrors to reflect spaces in the room, and tiling from floor to ceiling. Heating is also a consideration, especially in the colder months and your options include underfloor heating, heated towel rails, and heating lights.

 

Water efficiency is becoming a consideration now and water efficient fittings such as dual flush toilets and water saving taps and showerheads will save water and means that you’ll be paying significantly less on your water bill.
