For 2 storey home builders in Perth, as well as homebuyers who insist on the

one solitary level, the quality of the bathroom is vitally important to those

that live in the home, because you spend so much time in there either

grooming, washing or just plain relaxing.

A bathroom must be effective in how it works for you. If you have a bathroom that doesn’t quite work for you, here are some renovation

suggestions.

Try the bathtub for size

If you have decided to have a professional install a new bathtub for you, try

a variety out for size. The largest bathtubs will cost you more to fill with hot

water, while some are just too small to feel completely comfortable. Some

bathtubs don’t support your neck the way you would like while bathtubs for

two have their taps in the middle rather than at one end. How will that affect

your plumbing?

The claw foot style of bathtub has returned to popularity, but does it suit the

rest of your bathroom style and design?

A separate shower is often preferable, if you have the space and budget.

Some people never take a bath and only use a shower. The decision is down

to you and your family’s requirements.

You can consider and refuse, but why not at least look at some open concept

showers? You will not need a door or a curtain and they are certainly less

restricted areas to shower in. A ceiling mounted showerhead will splash less

water outside of the shower area.

Ask about home renovations in Perth for advice on flooring

You will find that marble and stone tiles are often considered excellent and

hard-wearing choices for water resistance in the bathroom. Ceramic tiles are

just as good and cost less.

If you are working to fund new flooring in your bathroom, you will have an

excellent opportunity to lay a sub floor heating system to make the natural

surfaces warmer because many claim they are cold to the touch, especially

in those cooler months or when you are reluctant to turn on your heating

while you save energy costs.

Can you find some new space for storage?

You should ask your professional Perth renovation expert to check to see if

you have stud walls that can be opened to expand your storage space by

adding cabinets or shelving. Even if a cabinet can only partially fit into a

wall, there will be less of it edging out into your bathroom legroom.

Hanging a quality mirror can give the room the impression of more space

than you really have. Larger mirrors can have a useful effect on room size

and can become a focal point if you choose carefully for an impressive and

different design. Of course you will need to involve the expert in home

improvements in Perth when planning electrical installations to help show off

your mirror. Next Level Extensions would be happy to give you a quote and
