4 Things Every Bathroom Should Have

Beginning the process of renovating your bathroom is incredibly exciting, but all might not go according to plan if you don’t consider the necessities that make the space functional for you and your family. From the type of lighting you use to the accessibility of the area, there are a variety of options when it comes to deciding on the best design for your needs. While working with your contractor to create the bathroom of your dreams, here are 4 things every bathroom should have.

Optimal Storage

First and foremost, you should be considering the amount of storage you want your bathroom to have. This can drastically change the layout and process of your renovation, especially if you are working with a smaller space, to begin with. Will you have built-in storage? Will you add storage solutions after the renovation? Will you ask your contractor to include these considerations in the overall plan of your bathroom renovation? These are all important questions to ask yourself so that you aren’t struggling to find enough space to make your bathroom liveable and carefree for you and your family.

A Fan

In this day and age, a bathroom fan is non-negotiable. It is necessary for keeping your bathroom smelling fresh and managing any steam during long showers that can then lead to mould build up on un-tiled walls. Your fan should be the first priority when it comes to deciding on the fixtures in your bathroom. There are a variety of options to choose from, but those on a timer are often the most convenient. You can just turn it on for however long you think you will be in there and not have to worry about turning it off as you go about the rest of your day.

An Accessible Shower/Tub

Another vital consideration when renovating your bathroom is deciding on the type of tub or shower you will be installing. The important thing is how accessible it is for you and your family members, especially older family members and children. Compromising a bit on the design for functionality can make a world of difference to how much you and your family enjoy your new space. If in doubt of whether to choose a tub or shower, there are a plethora of reasons why a walk-in shower might be the best decision for you.

Good Lighting

And, finally, one thing that you might not consciously be thinking about when planning out your bathroom renovation is the type of lighting you want to install. Along with the style of the fixture, it’s also important to consider the type of bulbs you want to use, the dimmer settings, and anything else that will affect the ambience of the space and make it functional throughout the day as well as at night. In order to keep your renovation as affordable as possible, think about your lighting options as early as you can so that you and your contractor are on the same page throughout the process.
