The master bathroom is where most people start and end their day, so it should be personalized to create a productive and refreshing environment. But needs change as time goes by, and you may realize the current bathroom isn’t holding up to your expectations any longer. A bathroom remodeling project may be the solution, which you can enhance with the following tips.

How to Remodel the Master Bathroom

1. Splurge a Little

Bathrooms are among the smallest rooms in the house, so outfitting them with luxury materials is more affordable. Marble flooring or a quartz countertop can provide elegance. Fancier faucets or a glass shower are relatively modest add-ons you can find within your budget if you’re looking for more minimal touches.

2. Hide the Toilet

Hiding the toilet creates more privacy, especially if you and your spouse have an open-door policy. A fashionable divider or cabinet can separate the toilet from the rest of the bathroom. Also, place the toilet away from the door.

3. Pick the Right Vanity

Standard widths for vanities include 24-inch, 30-inch, 36-inch, 48-inch, and 60-inch models. The standard depth is 20 to 21 inches. Decide on one or two sinks and the amount of storage required before determining the size. If possible, test out a floor model at a store to see if the size is right for your height as well.

Many vanities don’t include faucets, so pick one that matches your sink types and the cabinetry’s hardware.

4. Provide Adequate Light

Bathrooms often benefit from three layers of lighting: ambiance, task, and accent. Ambiance lighting, such as a pair of sconces or recessed lighting, softly illuminates the majority of the room. Task lighting is brighter and focused for a specific purpose; for example, track or vanity lighting makes it easier to use a mirror during grooming.

Accent lighting highlights a specific object or architectural feature. Wall-mounted picture lights and recessed spot lighting work well as accent lights. You might also use a colored bulb to enhance the object featured.
