You may not think much of your bathroom and see it as simply another room in your house. However, it is more important than you may think, serving as a personal area of respite and rejuvenation. As such, your bathroom should be tailored in a way that meets your needs both in functionality and aesthetically, and you might be thinking about giving it a rework. If you are looking into bathroom remodeling in San Diego, you should consider the following tips. To begin with, here are a few things to keep in mind:

• Style: Your bathroom should match the style of not only your home but also your personal taste. You would not want to have an elegant Victorian bathroom in a ranch-style house, for example, and a modern shower and bath would look out of place in a Tudor manse. A few accessories may be exempt from this rule, such as a fancy showerhead, but you will still want to keep a consistent theme with the rest of your house. When in doubt, going with classic styles, clean lines, and inviting colors is always a safe choice, as these will all continue to be popular for years from now. That said, it is recommended to find a balance between your personal taste and an overarching theme.
• Space: The size of one’s bathroom varies from person to person, and some are lucky to have naturally large ones in their homes. Others have to make do with small or otherwise inconvenient spaces that seem to have been wedged in as an afterthought. Knowing the limitations of your bathroom’s space from the beginning will give you a better idea of what you can and can’t achieve. You won’t have to accidentally end up with an oversized bathtub you’ll have to pass over to get to the toilet or shower, for instance.
• Layout: Some remodels can unintentionally make your bathroom worse. If the room is poorly laid out in the first place, replacing the fixtures with more recent and larger models could make your bathroom more cramped. Before you start to draft a plan, consider how you use the different areas of the bathroom, mainly whether you need a separate shower and bathtub and a one-sink or two-sink vanity. You may realize that your needs and wants do not go together and will be able to adjust your layout accordingly.
• Lighting: If you have ever tried to shave or apply makeup with a single overhead bulb, you know the importance of good lighting in a bathroom. Recessed lighting is popular in modern bathrooms, but you may also want to install plenty of light over the shower, tub, and vanity. Just adding light won’t be enough, though. You should also compare the light fixtures to the color of your walls. For example, yellow-tinted light bulbs mixed with blue paint could result in your skin having a very green appearance. Try to aim for a combination that produces natural light.
• Maintenance: It goes without saying that no one enjoys cleaning the bathroom. You will want to choose surfaces and fixtures that are resistant to stains, mold, and water markings so that the maintenance is less frequent and cleaning is easier.
