Not a day goes by that we don’t use our home’s bathroom. Here at B4U, we have put together some tips to make your bathroom the oasis you want it to be.

If you’ve been thinking about remodelling your bathroom, you may think it will be a stressful endeavour. At Bathrooms4U, we specialise in delivering a complete bathroom renovation in just 5 days. A member of our team will be with you throughout the whole process, from design to installation. This level of personal care will remove any stress or worry you may have about your bathroom renovation.

Do make a design plan for your bathroom. As with most things, it’s wise to have a plan upfront to guide your renovation process. When B4U complete your bathroom, this area is a key focus. Your B4U designer will give you a design plan, which will include every aspect from the sink to the shower tile and every drawer in between.

Don’t skimp on the vanity unit, with so many options available such as feature double sinks, large mirrors and plenty of storage. Don’t be afraid to make a statement with your vanity unit.

Do remember to add storage. While you may be tempted to cut out storage to go for a larger walk-in shower, you may regret this decision later. When planning your bathroom remodel, consider where you’ll keep bathroom essentials. B4U always ensure the installation of recessed shelves to optimize your bathroom space.  

Don’t be too distracted by trends. When planning your dream bathroom, think about the long term. While you may be tempted to add a trendy mirror, lighting or tile, don’t go overboard when bringing your bathroom up-to-date, as trends come and go. Not only do you want a clean and contemporary aesthetic, but its essential to ensure you won’t need a new refurbishment every five years.

Do think eco-friendly.  Our designers will not only install eco-friendly bathrooms because they are good for the environment but also because it saves you money in the long term. We will remove the existing bathroom and dispose of the materials, in the most environmentally friendly manner.
