How to Get Most Out of Your Bathroom With Compact Vanity Units

The bathroom used to be a simple room where the residences of a house, and their guests could refresh themselves undisturbed by others. But no longer is the washroom expected to be a lifeless place where one can go about

their business, instead it’s supposed to a sanctuary of tranquility where users can pamper themselves in superior luxury.

For those boasting spacious bathrooms with ample room to spare, decorating the room to be impressive, comfortable and user friendly is a little easier than having to work with small bathrooms where space, plumbing and electrics can limited the choices. Fortunately there are a number of solutions that can help you get the most out of your bathroom.

Space Saving Ideas For the Bathroom

Replace the Bath with a Shower

The first most obvious place to increase the available space in the bathroom is by installing a shower instead of a bath. It’s estimated that the average size of a bathroom in the UK is around 2,438cm x 1,829cm (8ft x 6ft) and when you take into consideration that the average bath is approx. 1,700mm x 700mm (1) then you’ll quickly realize that’s quite a lot of space to forego by installing a traditional bath. Of course, not everyone can, or wants this option, and those who do probably have it at the top of their list.

Wall Mounted Toilets

These are often a popular choice throughout Europe, and are becoming ever more common in shopping malls and supper markets. By storing the water tank within the dry wall. The toilet itself takes up much less room. While this does help save a fair amount of room, the major draw back here is that you’ll need to construct and mount the item in the dry wall.

Bathroom Sinks

Next is the sink unit. There are a few options of washbasin units that can help save space. Traditional looking bathrooms can benefit from installing a pedestal sinks, whilst they offer no room for storage, they do use very little floor space and look ideal together with classic bathroom décor.

Bathroom Vanity Units
