Freshen Up Your Bathroom

Does Your Bathroom Need Help?
Don't get overwhelmed...

Here are some simple ideas and tips to get you started.




The bathroom above is considered a mid-line remodel because they replaced tile, cabinetry, plumbing, etc.  Updated bathrooms are a good investment for the resale of your home and will put you ahead of your competition when on the market. 




One of the most important features in EVERY bathroom
is the lighting. 

 Recessed ceiling lighting as well as adding a fixture (or two) will brighten and update one of the spaces in your house that is as small as a closet and almost important as your kitchen.



If you are working in a tight area,
consider hanging a double curved shower rod. 

 It will give you a chance to add a decorative element
with a shower curtain and make your bathroom appear LARGER at the same time. 


MORE TIPS...

  • Visit showrooms and specialty centers to get ideas.  Creative Tile in Fresno has a great showroom if you are considering replacing any tile.
  • Magazines are also a great source of ideas.
  • Cabinetry designers can help with your layout if you are considering making floor plan changes.
  • Always consider including:  a second sink, additional storage, good lighting, new faucets, and a flooring surface that isn't slick when wet.

MINOR FIXES WITH HUGE IMPACT...

If you are not in the market for a complete remodel,
here are some great tips to spruce up your bathroom on a budget.

  • Caulk the areas around your sink and tub.
  • Replace your faucets.
  • Replace your doors & trim.
  • Re-grout your tile. 
  • Change your toilet seat.
  • Replace your shower door.

  • Hang new {matching} towels.
