esign trends this year are showing bathrooms that complement the rest of the home, all while being a universe unto themselves. Fitted out in nature-spa style, with black and white contrasts or cheerful colors, the trendy bathroom exudes style.

The latest trends are driven by the desire to purify this room and free it of any superfluous elements. Floating vanities give an impression of opulence and facilitate cleaning. Similarly, vessel sinks are also suspended or placed on a wallmounted countertop.

TREND: COLORFUL

Another big trend this year is to set the mood by adding touches of color. This mostly involves resin vessel sinks or toilet seats, as well as a variety of accessories in funky colors to set the tone. There’s also the possibility of incorporating a strip of trompel’oeil PVC into the flooring or wall, either for the color or the effect that the material gives.

SIX STEPS TO A

Renovating a bathroom always increases the value of a home.

NEW BATHROOM

G

orgeous and functional bathrooms add value to a home, so renovating this room is always profitable in the long run.

When launching into this type of work, it’s wise to allocate a quarter of your budget for any unpleasant surprises you may find behind the walls. Keep in mind that this type of project requires a fair bit of preparation and the following of some specific steps.

1

. The plan. This is your starting point.

It allows you to identify your needs and style preferences, and to set a budget.

Plumbing could be costly if you decide to change the layout of the basics, such as the toilet, bath, and sink. Obviously, if you plan to open the walls and floor to change the dimensions of the room or to check for mold, now is the time to undertake such work. . Stripping the entire room. Tearing everything down and starting from scratch is often easier than trying to save a few details, such as a wall or a toilet! If there wasn’t any ventilation in the room before the renovations and the humidity

levels were high, tear everything down and leave the skeleton of the room to dry before starting the rest of the work. Ventilation in a bathroom is an important factor in preventing mold in the home. This is also the time to install a fan suitable for the size of the room you’re ventilating.

3

. The floor. This is the best place to start your rebuilding. It is also an ideal opportunity to install underfloor heating if you’re using plywood sheets.

4

. Bathroom fixtures. Bath, shower, or both? Just a toilet, or accompanied by a bidet? A vanity, or two vessel sinks on a floating countertop? It all depends on your taste and your lifestyle, or on your target audience for resale. Walk-in showers are increasingly popular; however, a bath may be necessary for a single family home in a suburban residential area.

5

For the wall under the ceramic tiles, opt for blue gypsum panels that are moisture resistant. These will cost a few dollars more per sheet, however. In the shower or bath, install cement backer boards (Durock), as they have the distinct advantage of not expanding if they get wet. Be careful—panels that expand behind a ceramic wall means the tiles will crack eventually.

6

. The finishing touch. Paint and accessories give the perfect finishing touch to your dream bathroom. For the paint, be sure to choose one specifically designed for bathrooms; it is designed to provide better resistance to moisture.

Yes, renovating a bathroom is a huge project, but supported by experts and armed with some good advice, you’ll feel proud of all your work and increase the value of your property.

. Wall coverings. Ceramic is one of the ideal wall coverings for renovating a bathroom. In addition to being sold in a multitude of designs, ceramic tiles stand the test of time and are easy to maintain.
