A small bathroom does not have to feel cramped or uncomfortable. With the right layout, storage and finishes, you can create a bathroom that feels spacious, practical and stylish.
At Animanimus Home Improvement, we help homeowners across Hackney, Dalston, Islington, Camden and Tower Hamlets make the most of their bathroom space. From design and planning to installation, our in-house team manages every stage of the renovation.
1. Choose a Layout That Makes the Most of Your Space
Before choosing tiles or bathroom fittings, consider how you use your bathroom.
Think about the position of the shower, toilet and basin. A well-planned layout can improve movement around the room and create space for essential storage.
For smaller bathrooms, consider:
- A walk-in shower with a suitable glass screen.
- A wall-hung vanity unit to create more visible floor space.
- Recessed storage where the wall construction allows.
- Compact bathroom fittings suited to your room’s dimensions.
2. Select the Right Wall and Floor Finishes
The materials you choose can make a difference to the appearance and maintenance of your bathroom.
Large-format tiles can create a clean, simple finish with fewer visible grout lines. Microcement may offer a seamless appearance when installed using a suitable bathroom system.
For flooring, consider slip resistance, water exposure and ease of cleaning before making your decision.
3. Make Storage Part of Your Bathroom Design
Storage is especially important in smaller bathrooms. Without suitable storage, everyday items can quickly make the space feel cluttered.
A bespoke vanity unit can be designed around your bathroom’s dimensions and storage requirements.
Mirrored cabinets, recessed shelves and fitted cupboards can also help you keep essential items organised without taking up unnecessary space.
4. Plan Your Lighting and Ventilation
Good lighting makes your bathroom more comfortable to use. Consider a combination of ceiling lighting and suitable task lighting around the mirror.
Ventilation is equally important. A correctly specified extractor fan helps remove moisture and reduce condensation.
Electrical fittings and installations must be suitable for their location and comply with applicable UK electrical and building regulations.
5. Work With a Dedicated Renovation Team
A bathroom renovation involves several stages, including planning, plumbing, electrical work, wall and floor finishes, and fitting the final fixtures.
