According to the U.S. Census, homes today that were built between the years 2000-2009 average 2.5 bathrooms. This is a 10% increase when compared to homes that were built in or before the 1960’s. This means that if you live in a home that was built in the previous time frame, it is very likely that you do not have enough space in your bathroom. These historic homes offer incredible retro features, such as sunken family rooms, wide doorway arches, and unique wall murals. Thankfully, there are ways to create unique storage solutions as you work on bathroom remodeling in Hershey, PA, or the local area.
Creative Bathroom Remodel and Storage Solutions
Hiring a knowledgeable renovation company to redo your bathroom is quite possibly the most important step in the delicate balance of preserving history and attaining function in your bathroom. This type of company should always offer a free consultation and estimate before any permanent decisions are made. Some of the best ways to update a bathroom and provide additional storage include:
- Surfaces – Updating the surfaces in your bathroom leaves the architectural detail intact, while modernizing the room. A new bathtub and sink, updated flooring and modern counter tops always transform the room the most quickly.
- Fixtures – Once the surfaces are updated, it only makes sense to take another look at the older fixtures. The contrast between glimmering surfaces and old faucets and showerheads is typically not ideal. There are plenty of newer, eco-friendly appliances today that are built to match the era and architectural style of your home.
- Storage – Creativity is a must when you are trying to squeeze extra storage space into a small bathroom. Your remodeling contractor will help you take a fresh look at your existing space and figure out the types of storage solutions that will be of most benefit to you. From shelves and small cabinets to towel bars that are installed on the back of the door – the possibilities are endless
