Remodeling a Small Bathroom

 It’s easy to feel discouraged by a tiny bathroom. It feels as if, no matter what you do in terms of home improvements, you’ll never have a grand spa and always feel cluttered and cramped. However, even though you might not have room for a Jacuzzi, why not make the most of your small bathroom? Even the smallest touches, like tub refinishing, can make tiny bathrooms seem luxurious.

The Positives:

• Renovation costs are lower. You can splurge on a high-end bathtub refinishing or a brand new tile floor because you don’t have to cover as much space. Think of the hand-painted tiles you’ve always wanted to use on your walls—since your bathroom is tiny, you’ll probably be able to make them fit your budget.
• Smaller bathrooms feel cozy and more intimate, while large bathrooms tend to feel cold, impersonal, and awkward much of the time.
• Remodeling projects can be overwhelming, especially when you’re dealing with a large space. However, with a small bathroom, you’ll be able to contain the mess to a small area, and the renovation will take much less time.
• A lower square footage means less space to clean!

Some Design Tips:

• In any space, light is important; in small spaces, it’s essential. Consider adding a skylight or window to your bathroom, and update your lighting fixtures.
• Get rid of stains and discolorations. A dingy bathroom will feel oppressive, regardless of its size. Check out tub refinishing and sink refinishing options. A bright white fixture will always feel more spacious than a dull yellow one; you’ll be surprised by how much difference it makes.
• Keep counters clear and clutter to a minimum. Use the drawers and vanity for storage, and don’t litter your walls with distractions.
• Small rooms can benefit from bold accents and bright colors just as much as large ones can. Paint one wall an accent color, or choose a brightly-colored tile as your sink’s backsplash. Small bathrooms certainly don’t have to be boring.
