essential to follow these steps before

You should give thought about who will be
using the bathroom, there is no point designing
an elaborate bathroom with mirrors and
trinkets if the children will be the ones using
it – A bathroom really needs to be functional
for all.

Do you take showers of linger in a long bubble
bath? Utilising the space available is essential.
Today most young professional couple enjoy
the speed and efficiency of high end showers
but if you have a young family a bath is a
necessity. If the property possesses only one
bathroom then a shower- bath combo is a
great compromise.

Fittings, consider extraction units, shower
sockets, plugs for hairdryers and lighting. The
latter especially, is a crucial part of a bathroom
design. With a variety of new LED lights on the
market even the simplest bathroom design
can be illuminated in a way that will add real
aesthetic appeal.

Setting a budget is crucial. A typical bathroom
costs between €2000 - €5000 depending upon
the products and appliances used. If you’re
considering moving fixtures and fittings this will
be an additional expense.
