If it is time for a new bathroom and you have thought about it for awhile now there are many ideas that can be done in your bathroom renovation. An idea is great but it should always be put down on paper so your contractor knows exactly what you are looking for also. Many things can be done to your bathroom to spruce it up from adding a mirror to changing the color of the paint.

If you are planning to change to door, pocket doors do not need a wide arc to be opened. By adding a pocket door you will give your bathroom some added space. If it is added space you are looking for you need to get rid of your bathroom closets, all you bathroom should need are shelves hanging on the walls and maybe a few hooks to hang whatever you may need to hang.

When changing the paint color you should go with a lighter color like whites or cream colors. Lighter colors make your bathroom look as though it has opened up. These lighter colors are better then dark colors because dark colors give a closed in cave like feeling. Also to add some illusion of extra space in your bathroom you should hang some mirrors on the walls. More mirrors will make your bathroom look bigger.

If you are looking into having a whole bathroom renovation the you should look into putting in a stand up shower. Stand up showers that sit in the corner are the best choice because they will give you some extra floor space.

Remember that if you are planning on a major bathroom renovation, write everything that you have in mind down on paper. Also you may want to hire a professional to do the electrical and pumbing.
