If your home is relatively new then you probably have adequate space in your bathroom. However, if your home is older then you could probably use a little extra space. For decades homes were built with little concern to the size of a bathroom. This lack of space can often hurt homeowners when they go to sell. A very small bathroom is a real negative in the minds of many buyers. There are, however, a few things you can do to save some space and make your bathroom look bigger.
The first thing you should do in a small bathroom is get rid of the vanity. A large vanity and sink can be replaced with a pedestal sink to create much more room in the bathroom. A pedestal sink also often looks much better than old dated vanity.
Once you remove the vanity you will still need somewhere to store your toiletries and towels. This can be solved by adding an over the stool storage cabinet. The space over the stool is often wasted and by installing one of these cabinets you can free up much more floor space. These cabinets can either be mounted directly to the wall, or they may have legs that support them that go around the toilet.
Finally, there are many varieties of new small bathtubs on the market that can save space in your bathroom. These tubs can be found in many different varieties, shapes, and sizes. Small bathtubs can be fit into a corner for even greater space saving. These small corner bathtubs are outstanding at maximizing square footage while maintaining functionality.
So do not fret over the size of your bathroom. Even the tiniest of bathrooms can be made to look much bigger by instituting these simple changes. Changes such as mounting a cabinet over the stool can be very easy. The other changes such as changing out the vanity and the bathtub may require a professional depending on your skills.
