Small bathrooms can be a headache for homeowners. However, reassessing and recognizing opportunities to maximize style and efficiency and reaching out to bathroom contractors can allow you to make the most out of the limited space.

Make use of form and function
The first problem you have to tackle when redecorating is maximizing space. One of the first things you’ll want to consider is clearing up what little floor you have. Figure out what items currently sitting on the floor can be placed on shelves instead. Find the most convenient location for these shelves and decide on the dimensions. Bathroom remodels featured on Fresh Home reveal that open shelves are a popular choice among homeowners. You’ll want to consider taking advantage of these fixtures, which are convenient and stylish.

Rather than install a protruding shelf that takes up more space at another height, think about having shelves put into the wall. These niches will free up the area and still allow plenty of room to store various items.

If you prefer keeping items on the ground, look at storage units with multiple shelves that will accommodate many products without taking up too much room. Remember to limit yourself only to the number of shelves necessary, as additional surface areas can encourage clutter, which will undermine your project.

You can use methods that trick the eye into thinking a space is bigger than it really is by putting up a mirror across from another. These work together to create an endless reflection that will extend your room. Alternatively, placing more mirrors around the space, not necessarily across from another will reflect the room and create the illusion of a window.

Color is a fun way of making a room look larger than it is. Start by choosing a relaxing color that best suits your style. Then expand the color palette by exploring different shades. Maintaining a single color throughout the room will make the space cohesive and will prevent any drastic contrasts that will draw attention to the limited area.

While you’re considering colors for your small bathroom, look into acrylic tubs and showers, which come in a variety of colors that will definitely fit in with your decor.

Reach out to a bathroom contractor to discuss the best fixtures that will maximize space and boast style. These professionals will be able to advise you on the benefits of various materials and give further suggestions.
