Make it shine: reasons why it’s time to renovate your bathroom


It’s the same old story: you’ve hit the snooze button twice, maybe three times, only to shock yourself into remembering that this is the morning of that important presentation.

You rush downstairs, skip breakfast and head straight for the bathroom, and it is a mess. It’s a clutter-heavy, messy eyesore, the likes of which does nothing to help your ease at this stressful moment.

In between the quick shower, the grabbing at clothes and the fumbling for toiletries you manage to say to yourself: “it’s time for a renovation”.

Here are a few reasons why you might be right:

  1. Nothing works properly

And this is the room in the house where everything should be working properly. After all, there is nothing worse than trying to get ready with a busted shower head - it’s just unpleasant! The best bathroom builders Mornington has will always focus on the space’s efficiency, ensuring it is a room where you are free to move uninhibited and with fully working essentials.

So, if you’re having a hard time getting ready because all the fixtures were fitted in the 80s, then it’s probably a good idea to consider a renovation!

  1. The aesthetic is getting you down

Why was it that back-in-the-day bathroom designers always used the daggiest colours and the strangest designs? Oldschool spaces look more akin to something you would find in a 50s sci-fi film than something that accommodates the modern home, and if this is the kind of space you have, and it’s not working for you anymore, then perhaps it’s time to remodel the bathroom space with stunning, modern appliances.

With everything from stylish shower heads to frameless screens, stunning vanities to heated towel racks at your disposal, it’s easy to see why you might be thinking it’s time for an upgrade…

  1. The space doesn’t function properly

Because those old school designs also didn’t optimise functionality, especially as the technology wasn’t advanced enough to make things easy when it comes to getting ready in comfort. So, if your space is dysfunctional, with a vanity that barely holds your toothbrush jar let alone your toiletry essentials, then some new fixtures will do wonders for making this space one that you truly feel at ease in when getting ready for the day ahead!

  1. The space just isn’t spacious enough

If your bathroom feels poky, or that wherever you turn you’re going to stub your toe on something unpleasant, then there are numerous things you can do to make the space more… spacious!

And, this is a room where one needs to feel that they move freely, without the fear that they are going to bump their head on a low hanging shower frame or knock their knee on a sharp vanity corner.

So, it might be a good idea to consider some of these tricks: think frameless shower screens, bright painted colours, large mirrors to amplify the sense of space - all of this is at your disposal and it all goes a very long way towards making your washroom one where you feel comfortable at all times.

So, if you’ve decided that your space is one that could use some serious reinvigorating, then there are some great options at your disposal. With new fixtures, some handy tricks and state of the art appliances, you could turn your old, outdated and unsightly bathroom into a space that makes you proud to own your home!
