Creating the perfect bathroom draws on creativity and technical know-how in terms of its construction. Companies such as Concord Remodeling can help you with all of this, from the design to finding someone to fit it for you. They will come up with designs based on your ideas, or take over the whole design process if you lack ideas, or designing is just not your thing. You do not have to be flush with cash because they offer competitive rates.

In this article, we will therefore consider just what makes the perfect bathroom. This should help you come up with some ideas of your own.

Bath or Shower?

When it comes to luxury bathrooms we have spacious baths and walk-in showers to choose from. In terms of which is better, well, a bath will allow you to relax more. With this in mind, you can ease any fatigue and have something that will also assist in treating conditions such as chronic pain. So, in that respect, baths can be seen as medicinal. They are also for people with time on their hands. But then, we should make time for something that we enjoy because we find it relaxing. In terms of relaxing tense muscles, power showers provide a space-saving solution.

There is a school of thought that says removing a bath may devalue a home. It has been done in many homes to save on space and because of the efficiency and speed the activity of showering has to offer. However, many house buyers will consider a bath an essential part of a house and so almost expect to see it there. So, we should think carefully before removing a bath completely. There is no harm in renewing our bath by replacing it with a more luxurious one, however.

If we want to go ultra-luxurious with our bathroom, then we have some way to compete with the underwater bathroom that was created on the manmade island of Palm Jumeriah in Dubai. That cost $2.3 million, and according to Guinness, is the world’s most expensive bathroom.

Sinks

In terms of your sink, you have a choice of wall-hung or pedestal. It all depends on how much space you want, or need, to save. Either one can be designed for the correct height to suit your needs. Then, you have to think of children and adults using them. This is one of the advantages of having someone design your bathroom rather than choosing a bog-standard sink from a DIY store or similar outlet. Then, that goes for your toilet, too.

How about gold-plated taps to add that finishing touch to your sink, bath, or shower? This is something about the colour gold that just puts luxury into our minds. These accessories might be a little more expensive but not as much as gold itself. We are, after all, only creating a luxurious colour.

Tiles

Tiles are a very important part of a bathroom because we need something waterproof in all those areas that water comes into contact with. Not only that, steam is produced in a bathroom which is not exactly suited to wallpaper and likely to result in it peeling off the wall.

So, let us consider some tile options. The most popular ones include porcelain, marble, ceramic, mosaic, slate, limestone, pebble, and vinyl.

Porcelain tiles are a popular option because they last a long time and are an ideal material for a bathroom. This is because they are durable, water-resistant, and will not stain or scratch easily. The tiles can come in a matt or high-gloss finish.

Ceramic tiles have similar properties to porcelain tiles and will create a seamless look. Marble is aesthetically pleasing to look at with the veins of colour that run through the material. Slate and limestone provide a natural look.

So, there is much to consider when designing a bathroom, from whether we want a bath or shower, whether our sink should hang off the wall or be free-standing, and in our choice of tiles. There are design companies online that can remodel your bathroom to a high standard.
