Freshen Up Your Bathroom Renovation Ideas. Are you contemplating freshening up your bathroom décor and design? There are many ways to go about this but knowing where to start is not always easy. Below we give you 11 bathroom renovation ideas that are guaranteed to give you the bathroom of your dreams.

1. CONTEMPORARY BATHROOM VANITIES FOR BOTH AESTHETIC AND FUNCTIONAL PURPOSES

You can install sleek bathroom vanities to give your bathroom not only a fresh new look but also to get more storage space.

You can include a vanity with a countertop or one without,depending on your requirements. The vanity is the focal point of the bathroom and you should, therefore, be creative. Quartz and marble are the most popular materials for vanity tops today.

If you want a contemporary look, go for a wall mounted unit as this gives you extra floor space. Stainless steel also gives you a contemporary look and feel.

If you want enough room for two, consider upgrading from a single sink to a double sink. For more space, use custom drawers. 

If your bathroom is small, consider a pedestal sink or a compact powder room vanity. Pedestal sinks give bathrooms an antique look and feel.

For example, Muti, Tidal Canada and Ron Bow offer wide variety of vanities in different designs and styles.

2. DRAMATIC BATHROOM ARCHITECTURE

If you want a complete overhaul of your bathroom (and you have some money to spare), you can go for dramatic bathroom architecture complete with handsome moldings, lofty ceilings, and deep arches.

3. SMART TILES FOR EASY INSTALLATION AND GREAT LOOK

To freshen up your bathroom renovation idea, you can install smart tiles that are self-adhesive and very easy to install. All you have to do is cut the tile, peel off the tape, and stick to the floor or wall.

Marble gives you a natural finish that complements any style from traditional to transitional to contemporary and is long-lasting. You can have marble in a variety of geometric shapes and patterns.

Maax offers great utile wall tiles that have the same deep texture, stylish patterns, and rich colors you expect from wall tiles.

4. WATER-EFFICIENT TOILETS FOR COST SAVINGS AND BIDET ATTACHMENTS FOR A CLEANER BATHROOM

Go for a water-efficient toilet that will help you reduce your utility costs. Porcelain perches come in different styles – pick what complements the rest of your bathroom décor.

Bidet attachments and handheld wands give you a cleaner, healthier bathroom.

Acti-Clean self-cleaning toilet and innovative cartridge system from American Standard gives you a fresh, clean toilet. The system offers 2cleaning cycle options, one for a 10 minutes thorough clean and one for a 1minute regular clean.

Some of the top toilet manufacturers in North America are Duravit, Toto, Kohler, Produits Neptune, and American Standard.

5. FEATURE-PACKED SHOWER HEADS AND PANELS FOR A PREMIUM LUXURY EXPERIENCE

A good shower in the morning sets the right tone for the rest of your day. Go for a feature-packed shower head and panel to have the same experience you would have in a 5-star hotel. A good shower head gives a gentle stream that soothes you.

Today’s shower heads and panels come with such features as LED displays that change color as the temperature of the water changes and adjustable shower handles.

6. EYE-CATCHING BATHTUB WITH MORE SPACE

Go for an eye-catching bathtub without compromising on functionality. You can go for a soaking bathtub, a freestanding bathtub, or a whirlpool tub, whatever your preference is.

Today’s bathtubs are available in different styles from shabby chic to formal antique.

If there are seniors in your home, go for low height tubs for easy entry and exit. These can go as low as 16 inches.

Top bathtub manufacturers include Kohler, Maax, Zitta, Victoria & Albert, Oceania, Produits Neptune, Mirolin, Bain Ultra, and American Standard.

7. POLISHED FAUCETS FOR A SUBTLE FLOURISH

You can go for a waterfall faucet for natural beauty that will turn your bathroom into a spa. Bronze and chrome faucets are particularly breath-taking. Be consistent with the material you choose.

Moen, Grohe, Kohler, and Delta have a wide range of polished bathroom faucets that combine style, aesthetics, and exceptional performance.

Other top manufacturers of faucets are American Standards, AquaDesign, Blanco, Brizo, Franke, Hansgrohe, Kindred, Maier, Biobel, and Rubinet.

8. SIMPLE, MINIMALISTIC SINKS FOR UNDERSTATED SOPHISTICATION

Consider installing under-mount sinks for a sleek, modern, and contemporary look. The understated sophistication you get with this “less is more” approach lets the sink take the spotlight.

Under-mount sinks below the countertop offer an innovative design that will send a statement in the bathroom space.

Freshen Up Your Bathroom Renovation Ideas – Pedestal bathroom sinks save you much-needed floor space and are easy to install. They can give your bathroom a traditional look or a contemporary one, depending on how they are implemented.

Top sink manufacturers include Franke, American Standard, Blanco, Cantrio Koncepts, Duvavit, Victoria & Albert, Kindred, and Kohler.

9. LARGE MIRRORS FOR AN ILLUSION OF EXTRA ROOM

When picking your mirrors, consider large or oversized mirrors for an illusion of extra room and more light to brighten the bathroom. Large mirrors also have a functional benefit in shared spaces as they make mornings easier.

Mirrors come in different designs and have different functions ranging from LED mirrors to adjustable makeup mirror.

10. DISTINCTIVE ACCESSORIES AND HARDWARE TO COMPLEMENT THE BATHROOM DÉCOR

The accessories and hardware you pick should complement the rest of the bathroom décor. The materials, finishing, and forms should match the other fixtures in the bathroom, otherwise, they will feel out of place.
