10 smart tips for your bathroom renovation

Renovating or building a new bathroom opens up many exciting possibilities – and involves plenty of decisions. With the right planning, it’s easier to create a bathroom that suits both your style and your needs. We’ve gathered our best tips and advice to guide you through the key steps, from your first ideas to a finished bathroom.

  • Step 1

Think about your family’s needs

What features would you like, and how do you use the room? Tip – divide your bathroom into three functional zones:

  1. A toilet zone

  2. A bathing zone – shower and bath

  3. A personal care zone – hands, teeth and face

Measure the room and plan where each zone should go.

 

  • Step 2

A large family may need a separate toilet

Is there an unused space in your home that could accommodate a separate toilet? A toilet within the bathroom can be screened off with a partition wall.

  • Step 3

Should your bathroom have a bath, a shower, or both?

Teenagers tend to spend a long time in the shower. Could you have a separate shower room?


  • Step 4

Consider the size of your bathroom and ask questions such as:
  • Where can I change nappies?

  • Where can I store nappies?

  • Do I need space for a washing machine and tumble dryer?

  • Step 5

Don’t forget the lighting!

Lighting that’s too dim or too bright can make your bathroom feel uninviting. A good rule of thumb is to have at least one light for general illumination and another directed towards your face. Consider mirrors too – they reflect light and make the room feel more spacious.

  • Steg 6

Förflyttning av avloppsinstallation, golv eller vägg?

Det går att få vägghängt porslin även om man har avloppsanslutning i golv sedan tidigare.


  • Step 7

Good ventilation is essential

Good ventilation – ideally combined with underfloor heating – helps your bathroom dry quickly and reduces the risk of moisture damage.

  • Step 8

Pipe routing and plumbing

Proper preparation of floors and walls, along with correctly installed pipework, is essential to prevent moisture damage. We recommend hiring a professional to find the best solutions.

  • Step 9

Choose the right colour

Light colours make your bathroom feel more spacious and make dust, soap residue and water splashes less noticeable. Darker colours can add depth and create a cosy, sophisticated atmosphere.


  • Step 10

Choose qualified tradespeople

Always get quotes from at least two different companies. Then draw up a written agreement with the company you choose, ideally with a fixed price!
