Help me fix my bathroom please
Comments (68)I remember years ago being in a similar predicament and someone gave me some mirror tiles - I glued them on the the wall and thought I was very clever. They actually did look much better in my eyes. Try not to spend too much - I think everyone's idea of a shower curtain will all the bathroom colours in it would probably be the best option. You'll laugh about it in years to come and you will love the improvements you make over time. Enjoy the moment, unless you're selling soon your ideas will change after living there, so change when you can afford it - who cares it's YOURS. Good luck, it's so rewarding and so much fun. P.S. now we have a small bathroom, wall to wall tiles, dark grey on the floor and white on all the walls with a large grey tile up each opposing wall, tall mirror over the handbasin which reflects the opposite wall then a full length bath with shower over it. It works perfectly and looks great....See MoreNeed help for design of VERY small bathroom & ensuite
Comments (11)Thanks "The Hut Interior Design". Do you mean that I should work with the current width of about 2.5-2.6m wide (which is width of current bathroom and cupboards combined? When you say that I should split the space in 2, do you mean that the dividing line should split the current depth of 3.080m into 2 spaces of equal space. This would mean that I would have a front space of 1.54m deep and 2.6m wide in which to put the main shower and vanity, linen storage and B/I for bedroom and then the back of the current bathroom would be the ensuite also of 1.54m deep and 2.6m wide. Is there any chance you could scribble a diagram of what you mean. The diagram wouldn't need to be to scale but it would be great if you could suggest the overall space to be allowed for the main bathroom as compared to the ensuite and b/i wardrobe. Somewhere I would have to have a bit of linen storage too. I had thought about using the back of the bathroom where the window was for the ensuite and the front of the current bathroom for the main bathroom (once area is gutted). However, I could figure out how to do the ensuite and B/I wardrobe without wasting space and still be workable. Do you think in reality, I would have to put in 2 skylights. One for each bathroom. Unfortunately, I can't take space at the moment from any other room connected to the W/C as the front bedroom is quite small and I would like to keep the house as a 3 bedroom house at the moment. By keeping the current toilet where it is, it means that the main bathroom would not need a toilet in it. I have ripped out the bath and it is just sitting in the bathroom waiting for someone to help me move it out of the house (luckily I live alone here at present). There was no asbestos around the bath but the sheeting on the shower side (on which the shower tiles sit) plus the ceiling are both asbestos. That is the only asbestos in the area. From what you have said, do you recommend just working with the current bathroom and cupboard space and not taking another 0.4m x 2.1m from the bedroom (The bedroom is 3.080m deep, so I allowed 980mm for the door to swing back on current wall - If I were to eat into some space in the current bedroom).. I really appreciate your advice - it is along the lines of what I had been thinking but the 2 dilemmas I had were 1. how to make the ensuite/built in design work and 2. since main bathroom wouldn't need a toilet, how to keep make it not look way too small and cheap, knowing that it won't require a big space (square meterage) in order to work in a practical sense. ie. It may work in a practical sense, but due to its small size, it may look cheap and nasty. Many thanks for the time that you have taken to respond and your advice....See MoreBoring bathroom help!
Comments (19)Is the bathroom in a rental property or do you own? If you are looking for the modern look then the black accessories will definitely work with that look whilst the bamboo pieces will add warmth and texture, maybe a spa feel. I agree with the previous posts about storing away your toiletries, this will also help with a modern look. Matching towels in maybe grey can be used as part of the styling. Once you belongings are stashed then you can add some nice visual pieces to add some dimension and colour, like vases with greenery and candles....See MoreSTORAGE IDEAS FOR VERY SMALL BATHROOMS 2022
Comments (0)STORAGE IDEAS FOR VERY SMALL BATHROOMS 2022 Getting the most out of a very small space, I assure you that it brings more than one head. On this occasion, we want to share storage ideas for very small bathrooms 2022 that are totally useful and easy to put into practice. UPRIGHT STORAGE Vertical storage is one of the fundamental keys to being able to make the most of space and get useful space. In this way, you will see that it is much less difficult for you to get a nice bathroom, well organized and, at the same time, useful and practical. How can this be achieved? An example, because there are many more, is the upper wall that is free behind the toilet. All that wonderful, free and wide space can be made the most of by placing a tall and beautiful piece of furniture. If you lack the skills and knowledge to execute your vision for your bathroom renovation you can always resort to a professional property service specialist like a professional carpenter or handyman. TOWEL RACK BEHIND THE BATHROOM DOOR The towel rail behind the bathroom door is a classic of the classics. A great way to gain extra space is to be able to place towels or bathrobes without subtracting space from the little hole you have in the walls. FURNITURE WITH DOUBLE FUNCTIONALITY I don't know whether to tell you triple functionality anymore, but hey. Let's say that there is nothing like buying a piece of furniture that has a mirror on the outside, that has internal storage and that is also beautiful. Why do you need to have a mirror? Because these will help you create the feeling that the bathroom is larger and will also reflect the light better. CONSTRUCTION SHELVING It is surprising how many people have not considered building a built-in shelving unit or a storage space taking advantage of some covered hole in the construction of the floor. Yes Yes. Check if any wall in your bathroom sounds hollow, look at the plans and consult a professional. You may be able to get a little extra space out of an area that has been covered over to make it even and you can use it as a shelf or cabinet a skilled carpenter and property service company can help you to achieve the your ideals and preferrences. SUCTION CUP STORAGE For all those who like to change the decoration every so often, who prefer not to make permanent holes but prefer easy-to-remove options, you can opt for small storage areas with suction cups. For example, you have plastic containers that come with built-in suction cups so you can place them directly on the wall. An extra that it provides is that you can change their place, that you can place them vertically or place them in areas where a wardrobe would not fit. Another option is to opt for hooks with suction cups because you can place them in any area and you no longer have to put plastic containers, you can opt for crochet bags or other materials that you like more and go more with your style. MAKE USE OF THE INSIDE PART OF THE CABINET DOOR We continue with the same previous idea only that we move it to the interior of the cabinets. Have you ever realized that it is a totally wasted space? Depending on the size of the shelves, you can use it to place the smallest items, such as makeup, gaining extra space and super-visual, to have everything very localized. COATINGS There are bathrooms that have covered areas but inside they are hollow. For example, a bathtub with a wooden lining can have internal holes where you can put bathroom cleaning products, which is great. FURNITURE UP TO THE CEILING Consider a vertical piece of furniture, made to measure, so that you can take advantage of all the available space and get the most out of your bathroom....See MoreJulie Herbert
