Space-saving strategies for your small bathroom

Small bathrooms often need extra planning to make them feel larger. Here are a couple of space-saving strategies that will make all the difference to your small bathroom in Foster City.

Storage: Switch up your vanity for smaller open shelves, as this reduces the floor space used. We can also install hidden storage that will significantly reduce the need for more floor space to be used as storage.
Doors: One element that uses up the most space is your doorway, and you can reduce this by getting a sliding door instead of a swinging one.
Shower partition. Instead of a wall in the middle of the bathroom, go for a lowered floor to separate the wet from the dry. You can also use a sliding shower door to save space in the bathroom.
Shower over tub. Since space is limited, installing a shower will help effectively utilize the little room available.

Small Bathroom Upgrades for Foster City Homes

Working on a remodel often means adapting a new style into your current floor plan. These are common bathroom styles and how you can adapt them to suit your floor plan.

Layout	Description
Bath with a tub and shower	The bathroom design works best with a corner bathtub or a shower to ensure easier flow in the room. We can couple it up with an open cabinet to help with storage issues.
Small foot bathroom	The small foot bathroom follows a minimalist approach with a pedestal sink instead of a vanity, so you have space for other elements in the bathroom.
Half bathroom	A half bath works for guests visiting for the day or downstairs bathrooms. We install the toilet and sink, and it’s good to go.
Small bathroom with storage room	If you have a bathroom with enough floor space, then you can add a storage room at the entrance. Your main bathroom door will swing into the storage room when opened.
Bathroom with private toilet	A walled-in toilet will work for you if you need more privacy in the toilet area. We install the plans for this and will have partitions for the bath area and the toilet so everyone using the bathroom has privacy.
Narrow bathroom plan	If you have a narrow bathroom, you can always use this space for a toilet and a bath area. We can install the door to the bathroom on any of the two long walls and have a window at one end.

Factors to Consider for Small Bathroom Layout Upgrade

Changing your bathroom layout can go a long way in ensuring you have more floor space for other elements in your bathroom. However, you need to keep a few things in mind to ensure this change is effective.

Plumbing. Before changing the layout, figuring out the plumbing situation is vital. We will go over the old plans of the house and see how to come up with new plumbing for the different elements you move around. That way, your bathroom can function as it should.
Electrical. Changing elements will affect the electrical layout in the bathroom. Ensure the electrical and plumbing lines do not cross, which can be hazardous.
Local building codes. There are codes that every building needs to follow when remodeling. We will check these out and ensure your new layout does not cross them.

FAQs

Do I need a building permit for a small bathroom remodel?

You need a permit if you plan to change your bathroom’s structure and floor plan. We can get these permits for you and ensure all the necessary inspections are carried out before, during, and after remodeling.

Can I install a bathtub in a small bathroom, or should I opt for a shower instead?

For small bathroom spaces installing a shower is the best option. It occupies less space and can be enclosed without taking from the other elements in the bathroom.

What kind of lighting should I consider for a small bathroom?

Add sufficient lighting in your bathroom by using bigger windows and having reflective surfaces like a big mirror to bounce off this light. We can also install light fixtures by the mirror and the vanity to add more lighting options for nighttime use.

How do I plan for the space in a small bathroom?

As professional bathroom remodelers, we recommend solutions to address your needs. We will assess the available space and recommend the best layout that will suit the available space.

If you have a full bathroom and space for a small bath, you can always choose to install a half bath instead and save up on space.
