  • How to make a small bathroom look bigger

    For homes with a small bathroom, there are a number of tricks and tips to help you make the space look bigger than it is and give a feeling of a more spacious bathroom. It’s always worth speaking to your local bathroom fitters for their professional advice about making the most of your bathroom space.

    1. Flood the space with natural light. If you only have a small window you can consider installing a skylight or solar tunnel to increase the light in the room, which will open up the space and make it seem larger.

    2. Embrace the magic of mirrors. If installing additional or bigger windows isn’t an option, mirrors are the next best thing for increasing the amount of light in your bathroom – you could even mirror a whole wall.

    3. All white really works. Keeping everything the same colour (including the ceiling) creates a more seamless space and gives the impression of the room being bigger – and if that colour is white it makes the bathroom even brighter.

    4. Tile to the top. If you want tiles in your bathroom, you can create the feeling of space by tiling all the way to the ceiling to avoid any horizontal lines breaking up your walls.

    5. Combine your bath and shower. Chances are you already have a combined bath and shower, but if you do have them separately then it’s time to combine the two and have your shower over your bath to gain valuable space in the bathroom.

    6. Lay down large floor tiles. Lots of homeowners think a small bathroom needs small floor tiles, but they’re wrong – large, plain-coloured floor tiles actually make the room look bigger and less cluttered.

    7. Use clear glass for your shower. You want to remove any visual barriers in small bathrooms and that means avoiding patterned or coloured shower screens – a clear glass screen is much better to open up the space.

    8. Install recessed shelves. If you can build shelves into the walls of your bathroom, do it. It will save you space and reduce the amount of objects breaking up wall lines.

    9. Keep clutter to a minimum. To make your small bathroom feel bigger you want clean lines and minimal clutter. Keep products stored within a cupboard or on recessed shelves and, if possible, keep your laundry basket in another room. Removing unnecessary clutter will instantly make the room feel bigger.

    10. Make use of the walls. By suspending fixtures from the walls you can free up floor space, giving your bathroom a more spacious feel – cabinets, vanities and even toilets can be attached to the wall.

  • How to clean a bathroom

    We use our bathrooms every day to keep ourselves clean, so it’s important that we return the favour. It’s especially important to regularly clean your bathroom as the combination of water, steam and dirt can quickly become a home to bacteria, fungus, and unpleasant odours.

    To help you keep your bathroom in tip top condition, here’s our guide to cleaning your bathroom...

    1. Move everything before cleaning. To get the best results from your cleaning, you want to remove all products, towels, mats and other items from the floor and countertops.

    2. Start by sweeping. Grab your duster and broom (or hoover), and start by removing any dust, dirt and cobwebs and then sweeping or hoovering up any debris on the floor.

    3. Apply cleaner to the shower and bath. You can use a shop-bought cleaning product or make your own using baking soda, water and vinegar. Apply to the bath fittings and shower first, and leave to soak.

    4. Move on to other surfaces. Using a clean cloth or sponge, apply your cleaning product and wipe down all surfaces, towel racks, shelves, doors, blinds, tiles and walls.

    5. Tackle the floor. Once you’ve finished cleaning the main surfaces, it’s time to clean the floor using an all-purpose cleaner or more of your homemade cleaning solution.

    6. Go back to the shower and bath. By this point the cleaning product you applied to your shower and bath should have had a good chance to soak. A light scrub should get rid of most of the dirt and grime, then rinse everything down with warm water.

    7. Clean the toilet. Ideally you should regularly scrub the inside of your toilet using toilet cleaner or bleach and a toilet brush – this helps avoid a build up of dirt. Spray the outside of the toilet with an all-purpose cleaner and wipe with a clean cloth.

    8. Shine the mirrors. Glass cleaners give the best clean for mirrors, which you can apply and then wipe off with a damp lint-free cloth.

    9. Freshen with a spray. Who doesn’t love the smell of a good air freshener? Finish off by spritzing the bathroom with your favourite room spray.

    10. Put everything back in place. With your bathroom now clean you can put all your items and products back in their place. Job done.
