Quick, Easy Ways To Spruce Up Your Bathroom This Year

Bathroom fitters for Torquay and Exeter

With the warmer weather on its way, now is the perfect time of year to think about giving your home a bit of a facelift – and what better place to start than your bathroom? Whether it’s your relaxing hide-away at the end of a long day or used for a quick nip in and out of the shower, it needs to be cosy, inviting and stylish.

If you aren’t able to splash out on a whole new bathroom, then check out the suggestions in this article – which will show how you can freshen up your existing bathroom, without putting too much pressure on your bank account. Moreheat, as qualified bathroom fitters for Torquay and Exeter, are not only able to help with planning your bathroom refresh but also in dealing with the task in hand.

Turn It On
Shiny taps are one of the first things you’ll notice in a bathroom so if yours are looking rather dull and scratched, or have ingrained limescale due to a constant drip, then why not replace them? There are so many styles available but before making your choice, remember to check whether your bath or basin (or both) is set up for a mono tap or two separate ones for hot and cold.

Power Up
If you only have a bath, or one with a mixer tap shower attachment and low water pressure, you might want to think about installing an electric shower. This can be fitted over the bath and adds a great option if you’re in too much of a hurry for a good long soak. You’ll need a shower screen and you can choose from solid, single screens to fold-away, space-saving styles. If you don’t already have one, it’s definitely worth adding an electric heated towel rail, these are especially useful in the winter months to ensure that you are drying yourself with a nice warm and dry towel. As experienced bathroom fitters, we can advise on the best solutions for your bathroom.

Let There Be Light
Modern lighting offers so many options and can create the right mood and atmosphere for any room. A new light fitting needn’t cost the earth but could make a big difference to the look and feel of your bathroom. You could also replace your bathroom mirror with one that has built-in lights, making it easier to shave or put on make up.

From Ceiling To Sealing
Tired, chipped and grey-looking grouting does nothing to enhance the look and feel of your bathroom. It isn’t always possible to get rid of mildew and mould that’s built up over the years. Re-grouting your tiles gives an instant lift and will make your bathroom look fresh and hygienic. Replacing silicone around your bath will do the same and will help to stop water seepage, which could damage your walls or floor.

The Finishing Touch
With the essentials taken care of, treat yourself to a deep, toe-cosseting bathmat or fluffy new towels – they’ll feel fabulous when you step out of the bath or shower once they’ve been warmed up on the towel rail. Neutral colours go with any bathroom but for that extra wow factor, this year’s ‘must-have’ colour is coral.
