Bathroom Renovations Wollongong
Small Bathroom Renovations may be the ideal way to transform one small room into feeling like you’re on a luxurious vacation. Why leave home if you can step into a relaxing spa-like environment surrounded by a palette of calming colours? Our professional work and attention to detail make our small space bathroom renovations a joy to behold. If we can renovate a 1930s miner’s cottage and include a fully tiled modern main bathroom and en suite as a luxurious addition, think what we can do for you! We build to suit and look forward to following your guidelines for your perfect retreat.
Issues to Consider When Designing Modern Bathroom Renovations
With over 60 years of combined experience in Illawarra doing bathroom renovations, we’ve seen many trends come and go. We’ve learned that there are some critical choices that, if made upfront, allow the building process to flow more smoothly. Think about the following ideas as you finalise your kitchen or bathroom renovations in Illawarra.
· Whenever we build renovations in Illawarra for a kitchen or bathroom, we understand that you’ll be looking at your choices for years. Before finalising flooring, countertops, and tile choices, spend days looking at them. Sometimes the most boring options become more palatable when viewing them over the long haul.
· Avoid the inevitable cluttered bathroom by adding as much storage as possible. Tall shallow cabinets can store numerous odds and ends. Towel bars along a wall keep towels tidy and out of the way. Recessed cubbies in the shower offer spots for bottles and shampoo. Hidden storage may be the best-kept secret in bathroom renovations.
· Tabletop heights are usually 76cm. Countertops in your bathroom tend to be higher so that you won’t be bending over as much. The average height in a bathroom is 91cm; however, if anyone is exceptionally tall, you may want to add even more height.
Lighting Considerations for Small Space Bathroom Renovations
A bright and airy bathroom can lighten your mood and calm your spirit. We recommend our clients increase the amount of light as much as possible in all small bathroom renovations. Our construction work in Wollongong doing bathroom renovations teaches us that the more our clients understand the options, the happier they are with the final product.
Install a window if the bathroom is on an outside wall so the light can stream through the glass. If this isn’t possible, a skylight is an excellent alternative. The more sunlight you can let in, the better. Not only because sunlight kills mould but also because seeing a bird fly by or a tree sway in a breeze may have enormous calming effects.
The most efficient way to light a bathroom is with diffuse ceiling lights. The light flows from above and bounces off the walls, especially if they are pale or white.
The type of lighting to apply cosmetics is a personal preference. Fluorescent vertical light fixtures provide abundant light without shadows. A cold white bulb, on the other hand, will give you the precise light that a surgeon uses.
When Is the Best Time to Consider a Bathroom Remodel
One needs the motivation to renovate a bathroom because it can be challenging. We take the stress off you by providing excellent professionalism and communication. Our bathroom renovations in Illawarra may be your best bet if you find the following true.
Your family needs have changed. A gaggle of kids in a home you purchased when first married may no longer have large enough bathrooms. Adding double sinks and more storage space will provide a cleaner look, and there will be less elbowing each other during those early morning hours.
The kids left for college, and you want to create that dream bathroom with a bit of extra space. You have more time on your hands, so why not spend that time luxuriating in a spa-like environment?
You’re aging in place and don’t want to move. By redesigning your bathroom, you may be able to live alone for many years to come. Non-skid flooring may be one addition worth considering.
If you plan to sell your home in the next few years, a bathroom renovation will add value to your house, and you get to enjoy it until closing day!
