Home Improvement And Small Bathroom Design

Improve your home by remodeling your small bathroom



Everyone goes into your bathroom. You've probably got bedrooms and studies and other rooms and places in your home that your visitors never ever venture into unless they've asked for the "guided tour" and even then that will be the only time they see those places. On the other hand, anyone that remains in your house longer than an hour or so is bound to see the inside of your bathroom for one reason or another.



If your bathroom is the one room in your home that all your guests are going see and use then it makes a lot of sense to make it a very important part of your home improvement strategy.



Sadly many people don't give their bathroom the love and care that it deserves when they remodel. It could be because they fear the job or the expense or both. There are many things that you can do to improve your small bathroom that aren't difficult and aren't too expensive.



You can do a lot in a small bathroom by adding a few mirrors, painting the walls and adding some nice lighting at the edges of the bathroom. All these things are relatively inexpensive and will make your small bathroom a more appealing place to be. These techniques won't make you any more room in the bathroom but they can make it seem as if your small bathroom is a lot bigger than it actually is. It's a bit like the conjurers trick with smoke and mirrors, without the smoke.



Reasons for improving your property



The main reasons that most people make home improvements fall into the categories below:

* Maintenance * Improving your living standards * Add value to the property * Make efficient use of energy * For a change and because they can



Lets see how this list applies to you and your small bathroom.



Small bathroom maintenance



Repairing leaky faucets, broken mirrors and cracked bathtubs are all things that you should be doing no matter what the size of your bathroom. The fact that the room is small might mean that there is less to go wrong but it also means that it could be more difficult to fix. There is no doubt that making repairs in the bathroom will improve your property to the benefit of all your family and increase the value of your home.



Better standard of living



No other room in the house can make the same difference to your life that your bathroom can. Done properly, your small bathroom can make you feel like a celebrity and we all know how they like to deck out their bathrooms.



Increase the value of your home



Have no doubt that your bathroom can make or break a sale on your property. An attractive and functional, feature rich bathroom can command a far higher selling price than a dull, dirty lifeless one. Pay attention to your bathroom if you are planning to sell your home.



Becoming more energy efficient



Think about energy conservation when you are planning your small bathroom design. You have the opportunity to make some energy savings and to do your part to save the planet. By installing a high efficiency water heater in the shower and taking showers sometimes instead of baths you can lower your electricity and water usage. Changing your toilet for a dual-flush type can save a lot of water.



Just because you can



Some people just like a change and there's nothing wrong with that providing you have the money and the patience.



Remember that redesigning a bathroom can make a big difference to your life no matter how small it is.
