Before you search the web for a “bathroom remodeler near me,” it’s important to approach a bathroom remodel or renovation knowing what you want to achieve. You don’t necessarily have to have every little detail down to a T, but it’s best to at least have a vision of what you want your bathroom to look like once everything is completed.
To do this, it’s often helpful to write down a list of features you want your bathroom to have, putting the most priority on the most important ones. Let our experts at DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Central Texas walk you through some of the most important things you want to take care of when remodeling your bathroom.
The Vanity
Bathrooms don’t offer as much opportunity for design as, say, a kitchen or a bedroom. However, any good bathroom remodeler will tell you that a good vanity can easily make or break your project. Vanities are often the first thing that draws attention when stepping into a bathroom, so you don’t want to cut corners when planning its design or choosing materials. Vanities can also come in all styles, shapes and sizes, each with its own set of advantages and disadvantages, depending on your bathroom layout. For example, a wall-mounted vanity suspended off the floor can help make a small bathroom appear bigger. Inset basins can also be helpful if you have small children.
Shower or Bathtub
Some experts may recommend not deciding between showers and tubs and simply going for both options. This isn’t a big problem if you have the space for it. Unfortunately, this is not the case for many houses. Still, the choice between a shower or a bathtub depends on a number of factors. Showers are better suited for smaller bathrooms but bathtubs offer a great focal point for most bathroom designs. The middle choice here is a bathtub and shower enclosure. Your contractor should be able to help you visualize whether your bathroom would be best served by a tub or a shower.
Lighting
Lighting often takes a step back when it comes to discussing priorities with your bathroom contractor. However, a good lighting plan can drastically change your design. As an example, brighter rooms that allow plenty of sun look bigger, while dim lighting can be more conducive to relaxation. Think about what you want to accomplish with your bathroom remodel and plan your lighting accordingly.
