6 Ideas to Revamp Your Bathroom

amomentwithfranca · 7 August 2020 · 15 Comments

There are a lot of ways you can improve the aesthetic and feel of a bathroom. Through remodelling work, you can have an entirely new room brought to life, you can create a more spacious area or redesign your entire bathroom to suit your preferences.

If you are looking for some guidance, you can see below some ideas of where to start looking when planning to revamp a bathroom:

1.Shower

Firstly, you could consider whether you would like to have a new shower installed. Some options could include digital, mixer, power or an electric shower. On the other hand, you may prefer a bath. Among the designs or styles of a bath, you could choose a small, large, steel, slipper baths or a Jacuzzi.

2.Lighting

In terms of lighting, halogen lighting is arguably the best option. For an energy-efficient fluorescent or LED light source, make sure that it has a minimum CRI of 90. This will give your bathroom a high-quality colour rendering which is important for this type of room.

3. Walls

How about the walls? Have you got cracks in the walls or are they falling apart because of moisture damage? Consider having the walls replastered or/and repainted if necessary. There are many water-resistant paints out there which are worth considering.

Some paint colours worth looking into are stone blue, pale oak, charcoal, light green, light grey and decorator’s white. It is essential that you find the right colour paint for your preference and the decor of your bathroom. Don’t forget to consider having the ceiling painted too. After all, it is often referred to as the fifth wall.

4. Flooring

When it comes to flooring, tiling is certainly one of the most popular options. As with most of the work described in this post, while you could have a professional undertake the job, you could also do it yourself as a DIY project. In each case, you should know what exactly is entailed. So, in this case, it’s important to know how to tile bathroom walls. Other flooring options include vinyl and engineered wood.

5. Fittings or Features

Regardless of what fittings or features you have added, it’s important to consider how resistant they are to water. However, an extractor fan can also help with the issue of moisture accumulation. Having a bathroom extractor fan fitted can not only reduce humidity levels but improve the overall air quality of the room.

6. Storage Solution

Lastly, you may wish to consider a variety of storage solutions. Options to approach this problem include wall organisers, cabinets and space-saving shelves.

Before having your bathroom revamped, make sure to do your research. Think through carefully and do a bit of shopping around before purchasing new materials/fittings/appliances. By approaching it in the right way, you give yourself the best odds of having the most satisfactory remodel you’d want for your bathroom.

I hope you like these ideas. Are you planning to revamp your bathroom?

    What fantastic tips. I love your plants too. Our bathroom is very boring and could do with a few plants to brighten it up. #KCACOLS

    Storage is a big issue in our bathroom because it is so small. If we were to refit it I would probably take the bath out and just have a shower cubical to increase space.

    I’m actually re-painting our main bathroom this weekend and getting rid of the horrible lilac walls! It’s going to look so much better, just need to order a new blind for the window now #KCACOLS

    We’ve just done our ensuite as we had a leak and the whole thing needed to be ripped out, and it’s now my favourite room in the house! We want to do the main bathroom too, but I want it super stylish – and I fear all the bath toys will ruin the look so think I’ll wait! #KCACOLS

✨Breakfast✨.Nothing like a healthy filling b ✨Breakfast✨.Nothing like a healthy filling breakfast, right? I have been trying to keep eating a good breakfast every morning to help me with my low iron! .Most days I have branflakes and sometimes weetabix but Fridays to Sundays, I make a little effort and prepare overnight oats. I love them! They are so tasty and leave me satisfy for hours which means not craving for snacks until lunch time! Win win 😀.I prepare the oats with chia seeds, almond milk, vanilla extract, honey and leave it overnight. In the morning, I serve it with strawberries, blueberries, banana and honey. It is so good! 😋 I vary the fruit that I put in but everything else is the same..What do you like eating for breakfast?.#overnightoats #oatsforbreakfast #easybreakfast #simplebreakfast #togobreakfast #quickbreakfast #breakfastideas #healthybreakfastideas #breakfastinspo #breakfastbowl #breakfastgoals #breakfastlover #oatmealbowl #breakfastclub #oatmealbowl
✨Teacher’s Strike Day✨.Happy hump day! So ✨Teacher’s Strike Day✨.Happy hump day! So we have our first teacher’s strike day today which means no school and learning from home..Bella is doing her school work via Google classroom so she will follow her normal school day that way and Sienna doesn’t have a structured day from school today so she should have a day off but we have agreed for her to do some work too, so she will be reading, practicing for her spelling test and doing some maths. This way we can all have a productive day 😉, well hopefully! 😬. Have you been affected by the strike today? What are your plans? .#sistertime #sisterlylove #sistersgoals #sisterhood #hermanas #sistersforever #sistersforlife #sisterslove #siblingslove #lovemydaughters #raisingdaughters #mydaughters #westfield #westfieldlondon #londonkids
✨Happy Friday✨.Did you have a good week? Unf ✨Happy Friday✨.Did you have a good week? Unfortunately, it wasn’t that good for us because the girls have been under the weather. Bella started first with a sore throat and high fever for a few days and then when Bella got better, Sienna started! She got a horrible cough but no temperature. Her cough was that bad that she couldn’t sleep very well for a couple of nights. They are both much better now and back to school.. The weather hasn’t helped either. It has been so cold lately! I literally feel frozen all the time. Thankfully it is looking better atm as the temperatures are starting to rise. I decided to get my flu vaccine, so I hope it protects me from all these viruses that are going around! Have you had the flu vaccine too? .On another note, I went yesterday to a parents meeting about GCSE options for Bella. I can’t believe she needs to think about it already ahead of Year 9. The time really goes fast. Are your kids dealing with GCSEs too?.📸 Sharing this beautiful bouquet of flowers from @freddiesflowers to brighten up our day.#flowerarrangement #flowerdelivery #bouquetofflowers #flowersmakemehappy #loveflowers #flowersoftheday #flowersoftheweek #flowerlover #freshflowers #flowerobsession #bunchofflowers #foreverflowers #flowersofinstagram #homesweethome
