Bathroom Renovation Essentials: Factors to Keep in Mind
Renovating your Southeast Louisiana bathroom can be both exciting and nerve-wracking. While there are seemingly endless ways to upgrade a bathroom, you need to ask: what’s right for you?
This article takes a closer look at what you need to consider before renovating your Mandeville LA bathroom. It also discusses how Northshore Renovations and Contracting can make the most of your vision and bring your dreams to life.
4 Things To Know Before Renovating Your Bathroom
Although daydreaming about an updated bathroom can be fun, deciding what you want to do can be very challenging. Bringing separate modifications into a harmonious, cohesive outcome isn’t for the faint of heart. However, it is possible with the right professionals by your side.
Given that, here are some things to consider when thinking about renovating your bathroom:
1. Theme
Theming is one of the most exciting parts of the bathroom renovation process. It’s also the part where you decide how everything should look, especially when it comes to colors for paint, tile, and backsplash. Ask yourself:
- Should the bathroom’s design language work with the rest of the house, offering a continuous flow throughout your home?
- Do you want the bathroom to have a design language that stands in stark — and fun! — contrast to the rest of your home?
- How do you want your cabinets, furniture, and paints to correspond with other rooms?
Taking time to ponder how you want your bathroom to feel, and how you want it to look, can help you decide on design directions from the outset of your project.
2. Functionality
Renovating your bathroom also means redesigning its functionality. After all, a cleverly designed bathroom can allow you to accomplish daily tasks without feeling like you’re running an obstacle course.
Thinking about how you want your daily bathroom activities to ‘flow’ can help you design a renovation that makes the bathroom more beautiful, enjoyable, and livable. This means planning a renovation that can:
- Have a luxury look and luxury feel by updating details like heated wood floors.
- Provide an optimized and practical living experience by capitalizing on vertical storage.
- Highlight new cabinets, vanities, and storage solutions that make your bathroom more accessible.
Speaking of storage. . .
3. Storage
Bathrooms never seem to have enough storage. However, the more storage you plan for, the less space you have for anything else — including yourself!
To find the right balance between storage and white space, you can take stock of your bathroom’s floor plan and layout. Then, you can explore the possibilities for increasing storage intelligently, especially when it comes to utilizing ‘dead space’ like corners and crevices.
A wide variety of storage options exist:
- Built-in cabinetry
- Freestanding storage solutions
- Repurposed furniture
- Wall-mounted shelving and cabinets

4. Usage
To find the perfect balance between theme and functionality, you need to think about how much time you spend in your bathroom.
For example, if your renovation is for a heavily utilized bathroom, you may want to maximize storage solutions and maneuverability. If your renovation is slated for a less popular bathroom, you may have more opportunity to play with the theme.
