Renovation in the bathroom

Renovation in the bathroom

In most typical apartments, the bath and toilet are 2 rooms, separated, as a rule, by one common wall and characterized by very small sizes.

Preliminary stage

Before proceeding directly to the repair, you should destroy the wall, and then make a plan for the room being created. Ensuring free access to all functional components is the main criterion that you should be guided by when doing so.

In order for the newly created room to have maximum functionality, conditionally divide it into 3 zones: toilet, bath and washbasin. And do not forget about the need for a mirror here.

Proceed

First, it is necessary to clean the walls and ceiling from tiles, old paint and plaster. Then, without fail, plaster all the gaps and align the planes.

When laying communications, it is necessary to take into account both the location of plumbing components and the possibility of hiding the communication wiring so that the abundance of pipes does not spoil the impressions of the appearance of the room.

Wall

To give the most aesthetic appearance to the bathroom, its walls must be finished. To do this, you can use ceramic tiles, plastic panels or moisture-resistant plaster. Performing repairs in the bathroom with your own hands, you should know that small rooms are best suited to the color scheme of light, for example, beige tones. They visually expand the space. Ideal for the bathroom is suitable for the newly appeared material agglomerate. Externally, it is very similar to tile, but is characterized by greater strength and ease of installation. And, in addition, a smaller thickness, as well as a glossy surface.

Ceiling

The next stage is the finishing of the ceiling. For a bathroom, a suspended ceiling would be a good option. It has an attractive appearance and, in addition, is neat. In addition, in the resulting space, you can easily hide the elements of communications.

The budget option is plastic panels. In combination with low cost, they also look good, are characterized by high resistance to the effects of fungus and, importantly, they are easy to attach. However, in the bathroom will be appropriate and stretch ceiling.

Floor

Taking into account the fact that the floor covering should be practical, preference should be given to ceramic tiles. After all, under the influence of moisture, most other materials are destroyed over time. Therefore, laying tiles on the floor for a long time will save you from the need to make repairs.
