Bathroom remodeling contractors are tasked with working on bathrooms of all sizes and shapes. When undertaking bathroom remodeling in Naperville, the contractor knows that with a little careful planning and design, a small bathroom can be remodeled in such a way that upon completion it will appear larger and it will be far more practical and functional as well as easier to move around in. When you and your chosen contractor set out to remodel your small bathroom the first thing to do is have a hard look at what needs to be done to meet the objectives and set a budget for accomplishing the task. A remodeling project does not have to cost a fortune, even something as simple as a paint job will freshen up the room but to really do the job right you will need new fixtures, new flooring, lighting and cabinets; this will obviously be more expensive but the impact will be far more significant.

The primary objective of small bathroom remodeling in Naperville is to make the room appear larger than it really is, create an “illusion” of space even though it is really only an illusion. Staying with light colors on the walls and floor is one of the best ways to create the appearance of space. Light walls and floors are desirable but this does not mean that you must avoid dark colors; actually it is just the opposite. Dark color accents such as towels and accessories are ideal.

Proper lighting can make or break a small bathroom remodel. When light fixtures are fitted to the walls above the sink or imbedded in the ceiling the room will appear larger than what it actually is and the beauty of the positioning of the fixtures is, they take no space. Once the lighting has been selected and installed, consider a large mirror in comparison to the actual size of the bathroom. A larger mirror reflects a considerable amount of both natural and artificial light.

When the fixtures were installed many years ago the choice would have been limited compared with those available today. The fixtures available today take up far less space so consider replacing them. Think about removing the old tub and instead, install a modern stand-up shower stall using frameless glass panels, the effect is striking and the space saving is considerable. Old style vanities also use up space, think about installing a modern pedestal sink, they are ideal for small bathrooms.
