There are several reasons for a bathroom remodel: your old bathroom no longer provides the amenities you need, you are updating your home room by room, you want your home to have a higher resale value, your old bathroom is too tiny, you want to add a new tub or a new shower, etc. However, the tricky part is deciding where to build it. We put together a list to help you make that decision.
The End of a Long Hallway
A long hallway with dead space at the end is a good place for a bathroom addition. If you have kids racing to the bath attached to your bedroom, this is the solution to those mornings when you want to sleep in without being bothered. If a guest needs to use the bathroom, you can simply point them down the hall. It’s a sneaky way to add a bathroom, and you don’t have to tear anything down but a part of the wall at the end of the hallway for the bathroom door.
The Space Under the Stairs
If you have a long set of stairs with enough headroom under it, you’ve just found the space for your new bathroom. Most bathroom remodeling contractors are not surprised when a homeowner asks them to add a bathroom under the stairs. It’s often a dead, awkward space that they don’t know what to do with, so converting it into a bathroom is a great idea.
Part or All of a Walk-In Closet
If you have a closet that isn’t connected to a bathroom, why not convert it into your own bathroom? Use all of the space if it’s a tiny closet, or use only a part of it if it’s a wide one. To make even more space, replace your old closet system with a space-saving one.
Part of a Spacious Bedroom
Is your bedroom so large that much of the space is empty? Steal a portion of that wide bedroom to convert into a bathroom. If you can convert a spot that already has a window, that’s one less thing to worry about when you’re designing your new bathroom.
