Renovating a bathroom is always a rather complicated process. And if, in addition, it still has a small area, then the situation becomes more complicated. Indeed, in addition to plumbing, it is necessary to place a washing machine, a locker for small items, a toothbrush sterilizer, a heated towel rail and much more. Therefore, first of all, it is necessary to draw up a repair plan and try to at least visually enlarge the space of this room.
Main steps
If you plan to completely re-equip the bathroom, then the following sequence of actions is observed:
the design of the premises is being developed;
finishing materials are selected;
a repair estimate is drawn up;
a complete dismantling of old equipment and interior decoration is carried out;
communications are changed if necessary;
a rough finish is done – the ceiling and walls are plastered, the floor is leveled;
tiles are laid, decorative finishing is carried out;
installation of plumbing and electrical equipment.
After that, the repair is considered completed. It remains only to arrange furniture and hang accessories.
Selection of building materials
The main problem that the owner of a small bathroom is trying to solve is how to increase its size. There are two ways. The first is visual. Choosing the right finishing materials, you can visually expand the space. The recommendations of professional designers are as follows:
use only light colors;
tiles for wall and floor cladding should not be large;
horizontal stripes increase the width of the room;
a mirror wall expands the perspective;
replacing the bathtub with a shower cabin allows you to place a washing machine and storage systems in the room.
Another aspect to consider is accessories. In order not to clutter up the room with an abundance of small items, it is necessary to make built-in wardrobes. They store a first aid kit, an eye massager, cosmetics … This allows you to get rid of clutter. Only a few bright objects can be left in sight.
