How to Improve Your Bathroom


You spend so much time in your bathroom but do you love it, and does it still work for you and your family. Is the space not functional and not fit for purpose within your busy family home? Is the space looking a bit old and tired? Bathrooms get a lot of daily use, especially in a family home, and they can quickly start to look past their best, so how can you improve your bathroom? 

New tiles and grout 
Grout can look mouldy, dirty, and even yellow over time. Over time old grout can even trap moisture (leaving it mouldy), especially if it has not been applied correctly, so getting rid of old tiles and grout, and replacing it with new can quickly make any space look and feel fresher. From subway style brick tiles to mosaics, there are so many options out there that there is bound to be at least one perfect for you and your bathroom. For example, if you go with a coloured grout - especially in a darker colour - you may find it stands the test of time much better than traditional white. When tiling a bathroom, it is important to think about the size of the space you will be tiling. For example, if you are tiling top to the floor on all four walls within your space, you will probably want to go for a larger tile than a mosaic tile, as this will save you time, money, and effort.

New Coat of Paint 
Walls can quickly look grubby; even if they are washable walls, they tend to lose their clean, freshly painted look very soon, and this is especially true within a highly used space such as your bathroom. Bathrooms are spaces that contain and hold moisture, especially if they are poorly ventilated, so ensure that bathroom paint (moisture-resistant paint) is used. If normal emulsion or silk paint is used, you will notice very quickly that your new paintwork will look tired and old, and this is because as the moisture builds up, it will eventually get trapped in the walls, which will result in flaky walls over time, which of course will make any space look a mess. So, pay a little more upfront to get the right paint that will give you the professional, lasting finish you require. 

New Suite, new style 
Sometimes touching up bits here and there isn’t enough, and the space calls for a redesign and complete overhaul. If this is the case, and you want some inspiration for beautiful bathrooms Kidderminster based, then Summerhill bathrooms are the place to start your search. A bathroom design done by an experienced professional can help you use and utilise the space in a way you may not have thought about before. Sometimes getting a fresh pair of eyes to look at a space will ensure you can get the most out of any size/shape bathroom. 

Don’t forget when redesigning, improving, or redecorating a bathroom that your colour scheme is important. Ensure that everything ties well together, from the accessories and trinkets you add to the colour of your walls and towel bales.
