Your bathroom is one of the most important rooms in your house. No longer is it seen as a functional place where you spend as little time as possible, it has grown with the times and has now become to some – a sanctuary. A place to spend time each morning getting ready for the day ahead – often waking yourself up with a refreshing shower. And at the end of the day or getting ready for bed, perhaps having a nice relaxing shower to wind down and soothe the aches and tensions of the day. 9 in 10 homeowners choose the bathroom as their top priority renovation.
So what are the key looks and where do you start looking for inspiration?
Bathroom Renovations – Good Reasons To Renovate Your Bathroom
Renovating your bathroom can seem like a costly, time consuming and sometimes unnecessary task. However there are actually many benefits for renovating your bathroom space, some that you may not have heard of yet. Although it may seem like a massive upheaval the end result will far outweigh any inconvenience. Today we will outline some of the main reasons it's a great idea to get planning those bathroom renovations.
More Luxury
Who doesn't love some luxury in their life? No one. So by renovating or even simply updating your bathroom, you can create a space you're proud of, and a space you actually want to spend tine in. Loving somewhere you spend a lot of your time in is definitely a space you should invest your money in. Such is the range of luxurious bathroom products now available it is really easy to create that spa environment in your own home. Whether it's powerful body jets or sumptuous whirlpool baths or even marble effect tiles there are endless ways you can bring a touch of luxury into your own bathroom space.
Improved Functionality
When you are looking to improve your own bathroom a vital consideration is to think who uses the bathroom and which items you think are most important. If you are a fan of showering there is no point in letting a generous sized bath over run your bathroom space. Choose a three sided shower enclosure to create a lavish shower space and opt for a bath with a more space saving design such as a corner bath. There are also numerous modern touches which can improve the function of your bathroom too such as infrared sensors to turn on mirror lights and digital shower panels to allow you to set the water temperature and flow before entering. By considering contemporary bathroom designs you will find a vast choice of products to improve the usability of your bathroom and the clever designs which create more space and comfort in even the smallest of rooms.
Despite the fact renovating your bathroom may cost a few bob, the long term financial benefits can be huge. Updating the technology and functionality of your bathroom can save you a lot on energy costs. Over time this will balance out the cost of the renovation. There is a good range of water saving products available now. From the popular dual flush mechanism on toilets to shower and tap regulators which ensure you don't use too much water. You will also find modern heated towel rails have controls which allow you to control the amount of heat perfect for different times of the day or even year! Not only will you save on energy costs you will also have a more functional, reliable and luxurious bathroom.
If you're currently looking to sell your property, or it's something you are considering in the future, bathroom renovations can add significant value to your property. Which is certainly something not to ignored! Many property guru's suggest that adding an additional downstairs toilet can also reap you big rewards when it comes to increased profit. A tidy, clean, functional bathroom is also very appealing to prospective buyers. This will ultimately make selling your home much easier. Indeed many home buyers will overlook a property that only has one bathroom area such is the demand for these spaces today.
