The bathroom is one of the most important rooms within a house. Here are our top tips to create the perfect bathroom for you and your family. 

1. Have a realistic budget

It might be easy to overlook your bathroom budget due to a number of factors. Most people think that bathrooms, due to their size, are not as expensive to renovate, however you must include any labour and building costs in your equation. Try your best to stick to your budget when it comes to bathroom remodelling. 

2. Consult a professional

From manual labourers to subcontractors or even skilled interior designers, take any advice needed when it comes to bathroom functionality and design. Having a professional present you with a consultation might provide you with more room for budget, higher quality materials and better comfort and functionality. 

 

3. Pick the right materials

Whether you are looking to get a large shower area or a luxurious bathtub in the middle of the room, you need to give a lot of attention to the materials that you choose. Certain areas of your room, such as the walls, need to be protected with waterproofing materials. If you fancy a nicer and more aesthetically pleasant solution, you can opt for glass splashbacks. 

4. Protect your walls

Beadboards, splashbacks or even tiles are great at keeping away any of that pesky humidity. If you are looking for an antique look within your bathroom, it is best to opt for a classical beadboard. These valuable and functional installations can protect your walls from any inevitable splashes. Do not forget to add a waterproofing compound, as this will make your walls impervious to any moisture.
