The Ultimate Guide to Renovating Your Bathroom

Whether you’re planning a complete modern bathroom remodel or seeking simple updates, we’ve compiled some bathroom renovation tips below to help transform your space.

This year’s bathroom trends embrace both aesthetics and functionality. Smart technology, like our digital showers, continues to revolutionise the bathroom experience with voice-activated features and personalised settings controlled remotely from your phone.

Nature-inspired colour palettes are increasingly popular for bathrooms, including sage greens, terracotta and blues. These earthy tones pair perfectly with crisp whites and subtle stone textures, maintaining a sense of cleanliness. Matte finishes remain dominant, with brushed metals adding sophisticated warmth to fixtures and hardware.

Texture can add depth and dimension to a room. Consider incorporating elements like textured tiles or natural wood accents. Small touches like woven baskets, plush towels and textured shower curtains can enhance the sensory experience of your bathroom.

From shower heads and bathroom taps to towel bars, updating fixtures not only modernises your bathroom design but also improves its functionality. Replace outdated shower heads with a rainfall or handheld option, or refresh your bathroom with new shower fittings.

• Replace your shower head - Using a wrench and plumber’s tape, swap your old shower head for a water-efficient model. Unscrew the old one, clean the connection, wrap it with tape and secure the new fixture.
• Refresh grout – Clean shower grout with a DIY cleaning solution and a stiff brush. For permanent results, apply a grout sealer after cleaning.
• Install storage - Mount tension-rod shelves or adhesive caddies to maximise storage without drilling.
• Replace your shower curtain - Upgrade from a standard liner and curtain to a double-track system with a washable fabric curtain for an instant transformation.

Proper lighting can transform both the appearance and functionality of your bathroom. Replace outdated light fixtures with energy-efficient LED options to improve visibility and reduce energy consumption. Consider installing fixtures with adjustable brightness settings to accommodate different needs throughout the day.

Sconces positioned at eye level on either side of the mirror provide a flattering light for grooming, while recessed ceiling lights deliver overhead illumination. For a touch of luxury, add LED strip lighting beneath floating shelves or vanities. Discover more bathroom lighting ideas here.

Creating an eco-friendly bathroom doesn’t mean compromising on style or functionality. Here are a few aspects to consider for an eco-friendly bathroom renovation:

• Water conservation – Consider water-saving options, like our digital and mixer showers.
• Eco-friendly materials – When selecting materials for flooring or wall coverings, choose recycled or sustainably sourced natural options.
• Insulation – If you’re renovating an older bathroom, proper insulation is essential to prevent heat loss.
