How To Create The Perfect Family Bathroom

June 2, 2010 - PRLog -- When it comes to creating a family bathroom it is always a good idea to start off by accurately measuring the space you have and if possible try to gain more room, you could consider gaining more space from the landing or the room next door. Having more space will help you create the ideal family bathroom.

A bath is a must have if you have children also the lack of a bath can put off potential buyers if you ever come to sell your house. Having a separate shower and bath is a good idea, this will make your bathroom look more finished. Opting for a large double ended bath will allow children to enjoy bath-time fun and having a bath shower mixer will make washing hair much easier. Another good option is having a walk-in shower enclosure installed in your bathroom as they are quick and safe for children to use, choose the largest one you can for the space you have.

When it comes to choosing a basin, the bigger the better is usually the best option for a family bathroom. Look for a basin with a large flat surround, you will find that the space will come in useful for toothbrushes and toiletries. If you have the room, install double basins, they will come in handy during busy mornings when everyone is getting ready.

Another important aspect to consider is storage, as family bathrooms can easily become cluttered with toiletries. Opting for bathroom furniture with plenty of storage is a good idea, either making use of a separate storage unit or a basin with an integrated cabinet underneath, the extra storage space will be extremely useful. Built in bathroom furniture is another good option to consider, it will give your family bathroom an organised look, create plenty of storage space whilst gaining more surface areas and hide any unsightly pipework.

Lighting is an important aspect to consider in a family bathroom, making use of a large mirror with a light will create a focal point. Think about installing a dimmer switch, this will allow you set the lighting to your preference.

Making use of a large heated towel rail will keep your towels warm and off the floor and will help you keep your family bathroom tidy and organised.
