Be careful to consider both before you go ahead with the project. Bathroom remodeling should be based upon the below mentioned factors, which would serve both practical and aesthetic purposes. The first thing to consider while remodeling is the space available. Make full use of the floor space, by building utility cabinets for storage purposes, hence doing away with the clutter. Also plan the placement of shower cubicle, toilet seats, bathtubs in such a way that there is enough room to move around without bumping into any fixture. Secondly, keep the lighting in mind. Dimmed lighting may be helpful for relaxing, but it can hinder other practical purposes like putting on make up, shaving, cleaning, etc. Bright light also does wonders to impart a sense of more space even in a small area. Another thing to keep in mind is that whatever the size of the bathroom, there will be issues of moisture and humidity. So choose the floor, countertops, ventilation and ceiling in such a manner that withstands these factors. The last but not the least in bathroom remodeling, is the factor of budget. Consider all the factors and come to a decision on how much should be spent on the project, including the expenditure incurred for hiring professionals. The affordability of the entire project should be chalked out in the very beginning, so that everything you have planned can be given proper culmination.
