1. Budget: One of the most important aspects of planning a bathroom remodel is determining your budget. This will help guide your decisions on the scope of the project, as well as the materials and finishes you choose.
2. Layout: Consider the current layout of your bathroom and whether it meets your needs. Think about if you want to reconfigure the layout or keep it the same. Changing the layout can be more expensive, but it may make the space more functional and enjoyable to use.
3. Size: Consider the size of your bathroom and how it impacts the design. A smaller bathroom may require more creative solutions to make the most of the space, while a larger bathroom may allow for more luxurious finishes and features.
4. Lighting: Lighting is an important aspect of any bathroom remodel. Ensure there is ample natural light and consider incorporating task lighting around the vanity and shower.
5. Fixtures and finishes: Choosing the right fixtures and finishes can make a big impact on the overall look and feel of your bathroom. Consider the style you want to achieve, as well as the durability and maintenance requirements of the materials.
6. Storage: Consider your storage needs and how they can be addressed in the bathroom design. This may include incorporating built-in shelving or cabinetry or adding additional storage solutions.
7. Plumbing: If you plan to alter the layout of your bathroom or upgrade fixtures, you may need to make changes to the plumbing. This should be factored into your budget and timeline.
8. Accessibility: If you plan to age in place or have mobility issues, consider incorporating accessible features such as grab bars or a walk-in shower.
