Tips for renovating the bathroom

In this article, we explain:

The bathroom is one of the spaces in the house that gets remodeled the most. Whether it’s because it has become outdated over the years or because when we acquire an old home, it’s one of the first spaces we decide to renovate and personalize.

Not all bathrooms are spacious, bright, and have windows. In fact, this only happens in the homes of a few, which is why at Fincas Gumper we wanted to share some tips that you can apply to make your bathroom look brand new:

-Lighting. Many bathrooms lack windows, so adequate lighting will help make the space look larger. Bathrooms usually use lighting with different light points, but it’s interesting to consider more directed light in the mirror area with fixtures or light bars on the furniture.

-Choose according to your needs. It’s very easy to get carried away by trends or what you see in magazines, but we need to be realistic. The main thing is to have a clear distribution based on the space we have. If you have a lot of space, a double sink can be functional, but if the bathroom is small, you need to think about how many times it can realistically be used at once and avoid taking up unnecessary space.

-Storage. Many bathroom furniture pieces are very beautiful, but we always advise that they also be practical because we know that many bathrooms end up filled with shelves and become cluttered due to a lack of storage furniture. 

-Invest in quality materials. There is currently a wide variety of materials available. There are bathrooms with paint, wallpaper, and layered vinyls, so that the passage of time does not change the appearance of your bathroom. Therefore, we recommend that you invest in durable materials during the renovation.

-Choose shower or bathtub? If there are no small children in the home anymore, a shower will save us 70% of water consumption and will be more practical and comfortable. Currently, replacing a bathtub with a shower tray is one of the most requested renovations and does not require a large investment.
