Master Bathroom Renovation Ideas

 

When renovating a bathroom there are a lot of decisions to make and some are much easier to think of on your own than others. You are probably starting this project because there is something about your master bathroom that you don’t like. Maybe it is outdated tile floors or a shower that is too small. These aspects of the renovation are easy to decide on, but what about smaller details that can really make a difference in the experience of your bathroom? Here are some interesting, often overlooked details that you can add to your master bathroom renovation project that you will love.

Fan Timer

Do you ever turn the fan on to cool the room a bit then forget about it only to return hours and realize it has been running unnecessarily this whole time? If you want to save some electricity but can’t seem to remember to turn off the fan, installing fan timer switches is a game changer. This way, you can set the fan to be on for a half hour, an hour, and even an hour and a half. It will stay on while you’re using the bathroom, and after you have finished and forgotten about it, it’ll shut off automatically.

Lighting

The bathroom is one of the most important places in your home to have good lighting. Whether you need to apply makeup, pop pimples, or spy a gray hair that needs to be plucked out, you want to be able to see everything clearly. Installing extra lighting is always a good thing to include in your master bathroom renovation, and it’s also a great way to add character.

While you need to be able to see things clearly in your bathroom, it’s also a place people want to feel relaxed. You usually begin and end your day by spending some time in the bathroom, and sometimes you may not be in the mood for lighting you could perform surgery under. If you want the option of ambiance in your bathroom, a dimmer on your light switch can make all the difference for taking a relaxing bath or getting ready for bed.

Heated Toilet Seat

While this may seem a bit unnecessary or over the top, you would be surprised how inexpensive yet amazing this addition is. With a heated toilet seat you’ll have to plan a bit more ahead than with other additions because you need an outlet by the toilet, so you will have to hire an electrician to help make sure it is possible. If you live in an area that gets cold, sitting on an icy toilet seat can be really uncomfortable. A heated toilet seat doesn’t cost that much more than a regular one, in some cases the difference is less than $100, and it can make a huge difference in the comfort of your bathroom.

Heated Floors

Another more extravagant but amazing thing you can add to your bathroom is heated tile floors. Just like the toilet seat, the floors can get very cold in the winter and if you prefer to walk around your house without shoes or even socks, the tile can be quite a shock to your feet. One option is to have a custom mat made that fits your bathroom exactly. However, a cheaper alternative is to buy the mats in a standard size, which can work well if your bathroom floor plan is relatively simple. Either way, the price tag is not as high as you might think, and it could be worth it to add a bit of luxury to your master bathroom.
