Squeezing a Shower into a Little Bathroom
Is the sole problem with your house the fact that the bathroom is so tiny? These small bathrooms were often tucked into unused corners or built in closets in order to be unobtrusive and take up less space when they were added after an older house was built. Even in modern homes, bathrooms can be small, because builders prefer to use the space that is’s available in other ways. Due to this shortage of foresight by some homebuilders and remodelers, many homeowners are at a complete loss for how they can redo their bathrooms to make them look bigger while still adding a desired shower stall.
Unless you completely have to have abath in your small bath, you could consider not having one in the slightest. In fact , abathtub must be big to accommodate all sizes of users, and it takes up a large amount of room in atiny space. Dumping it means that you are able to add a roomy shower stall in same amount of room previously occupied by your tub or put in a smaller stall that may open the room up even more. Before youmake a extreme move like getting rid of your tub altogether, though, stop and consider the fact that in doing so you are not only going to deprive yourself of an occasional long, relaxing soak, but you’ll also be lowering the value of your home to prospective customers who expect to find abathtub in every bathroom. Naturally, if you’ve more than one bathroom, this won’t be a major issue.
If the bathroom decorating idea you decide on opts for a shower stall instead of a tub, choose an enclosure with clear glass which will open the room up so much more than opaque glass will. Clear glass is ultra-modern and will give your bathroom a more spacious look. If you keep your tub and put a shower nozzle over it like so many folk do, be sure to add either clear glass doors that can be pushed back to open up the space or a shower curtain which you can tuck away into one corner. Anything that breaks up the space is going to make the room look smaller, so you’ll want to go for clear, unobtrusive accessories regardless of which way you make a decision to go.
