Top 10 San Diego Bathroom Remodeling Trends and Ideas
1) Get a fresh start by replacing old bathroom fixtures.
Start with the easy stuff such as light switch covers, knobs, toilet seats, drain covers, shower curtains, etc. Then move onto more involved items such as faucets, sinks basins, light fixtures, medicine cabinets, base boards and wainscotting.
2) Add more storage
Stand alone shelves and racks are great because no installation needed. Or you take it to a new level by adding storage closets and built in cabinets for extra storage and appeal. Or replace a sink pedestal with a vanity that has storage capacity and/or drawers.
3) Trick out the shower
Give a basic shower stall a boost with a sound system. A water-safe stereo and speakers could help you perk up in the morning. Or put in a digital panel that programs the water’s temperature and pressure.
New shower heads are great too because you can get the right one to your liking. Also a held on a hose is handy. Why settle with a simple boring spray head when you can have pulsating goodness raining down upon you?
4) Paint
Another relatively easy bathroom remodel technique is a quick paint job. Wall paper too if you’re so inclined.
5) Choose wood
Wood in the bathroom? Absolutely, but make sure it’s the right type of wood that is naturally moisture resistant and use a good sealer. Wood lends an organic, natural vibe to what can otherwise feel like a cold, sterile space.
6) Flooring
Change it up for a fresh new feel so you can show your personality and style. There are many fun textiles, colors and patterns to choose from in vinyl, linoleum and ceramic or natural tile that you can choose from.
7) Increase the size
Bigger may be better when it comes to your bathroom space because size matters. The latest trends in today’s bathroom renovations focus on a light, open feel.
8) Consider changing the floor plan layout
Moving the sink or cabinets is easy (for a San Diego bathroom remodeling contractor). However, moving the tub and toilet is a little more involved and costly but still doable.
9) Add a standalone tub
A freestanding tub can be a very upscale addition in a San Diego bathroom remodel. It’s not only a semi-retro design feature but also a way to create a relaxing, spa-like atmosphere, especially if you opt for a “Jacuzzi” style tub with jets.
10) Upgrade to modern high tech
Bathrooms can be remodeled with technology incorporated into its design. Such as toilets with self-cleaning mechanisms, heated toilet seats (my personal favorite on winter cold mornings) to smart lighting that lets you sync it with your music and favorite colors. Due to great lighting you can enjoy an experience that ranges from soothing and relaxing to waking up to start your active day with an invigorating and exciting display.
