Key considerations
There are many decisions to make, and while it’s a good idea to have an ideal vision, being flexible is key. Sometimes certain choices aren’t possible due to space, practical or budget restraints. Talk with your builder about restrictions, alternatives and options available.
When planning your new bathroom, think about the following major practicalities:
- Space: utilise awkward corners, prioritize tub placement
- Drainage: easy access from fixtures to existing plumbing position
- Shower: over bath attachment, wet room, standalone cubicle
- Tub: freestanding, integrated, size, shape
- Basin: material, single/double, tap choice, plug, built-in storage underneath
- WC: flush mechanism, lid style, seat type
- Walls/ceiling: fully/part tiled, patterned/plain, painted
- Flooring: vinyl, laminate, tiles
- Heating: towel rail, underfloor, radiator
- Lighting: overhead, sidelights, vanity mirror
- Windows: style, material
- Doors: sliding/hinged, timber/aluminium/solidor composite/PVCu
- Storage: wall-mounted cabinets, under-basin cupboard, freestanding ladder style
One of the most exciting parts is dreaming up the design aspects and finishing touches:
- Colour scheme: fixtures, wall/ceiling/floor, themed accessories
- Theme: maritime, spa, monochrome, etc.
- Accessories: mirrors, towel rack, laundry basket
What is the renovations process?

The steps typically include:
- Remove existing fixtures
