Yearning For A Luxurious Bathroom?


Today is the best time to renovate and enjoy the luxury of bathing. You can make your budget flexible for this.

The reasons for renovating your bathroom are countless. Having a new bathroom is equivalent to the quality of life.

Everyone will enjoy having bathrooms that are complete in equipment which have whirlpools and showers, low water toilets, faucets with spacious sinks and all maintenance free.

That design for your bathroom that you really want is achievable if only you would properly plan it. The average price for bathroom renovations according to National Kitchen & Bath Association is somewhere between $6,500 and $11,600.

The designs and materials that you choose will greatly affect the prices. Keep in mind, though, that installation can account for nearly a quarter of the total.

Whether remodeling a master suite, or a powder room, you must plan ahead. For you to know the right products and materials to use, you definitely have to know about this. Magazines, catalogs and the Internet will definitely provide you an array of designs to choose from.

When you have already chosen what design you want, look for an expert to help you. Ask friends for recommendations or contact trade organizations such as NKBA, ASID, and AIA for qualified members in your area. Know how long the organization has been established, if they offer insurance and if their employees are certified.

Matters like this should be researched by you always. The price, how it can be maintained and how long will it last are the things you should know about. Unleash the interior designer in you. It is definitely sure that every curve, handle and shape will coordinate with one another once they are placed together.

A measurement of 15 to 30 inches should be allotted between the center of the toilet bowl to the wall and 21 to 30 inches for clearance space of the bathtub, shower or sink. It is a must that you should install door swings for closets and cabinets to be accessible. The best height for a lavatory should be 34 to 36 inches.

The tallest person in the family should be able to comfortably use the tubs and showerheads. If you have kids and members who are short, then it is advisable to use shower bars with adjustable showerheads. You need to utilize materials that can minimize risks to happen such as grab bars, non-slip flooring and temperature shower controls.
