Redecorating and remodelling our bathrooms can prove to be a great way of making some stylish and practical changes in our houses. Whether you are looking to build around a particular new feature you have your eye on, (commonly a larger walk in shower or hot tub) or you’re hoping to produce a much more stylish and impressive result after remodelling, there are aspects of today’s modern bathroom that everybody should try to include. When looking at modern bathroom ideas try not to fixate your mind on one particular image when you think of the word ‘modern’, instead look at the new designs, fixtures and styles that are available and well suited to you and your home.

Redecorating and remodelling your bathroom is a great way to prepare for upcoming seasons by adding colours to bring the desired effect. Removing old fixtures and furnishings can make room for a complete overhaul of your bathroom, allowing you to make some substantial and effective changes. Some homes however, have very limited space in the bathroom and take a little more thought when planning to redecorate and remodel. So with that in mind, let’s see how we can optimise these rooms and look at some bathroom ideas for small spaces.

Just a quick note to inform everybody that Bathshop321 will be supporting a new television show called ‘Britains Ugliest Rooms‘ We are all very excited about this and seeing our products on television.

We recently moved house and as part of our improvements we installed underfloor heating in our kitchen and conservatory areas.  We started with a plain concrete floor and had to cut the mats to the right sizes, we had to buy several mats and join them together which didn’t create any problems for the fitter and this is how the system is designed to work.  Once this was fitted the area was tiled as normal with large format gloss tiles.  My tiles are quite thick so I was surprised how well the heat radiates through – it takes a while to heat up but holds its heat very effectively.  It’s tempting when you seem to be spending left, right and centre to try and cut out areas of expenditure – I’d just advise – don’t

The new revolution in brassware has now evolved into ‘waterfall taps’ these have open spouts and as the name described the water pours down the open spout to create the waterfall look.  At Bathshop321 we have sourced a full selection combining mono basin mixers, bath fillers and bath shower mixers. They are manufactured to a very high standard and finished with high levels of chromium to bring the ‘bling’ to your bathroom suite. The stunning open spout collection is shown below and we are sourcing direct from the manufacturers as new designs are released.

In the latest brochures from Sagittarius, Tre Mercati, Bristan, Home of Ultra, John Sydney, Mayfair there is nothing but the cold brush of chrome.  I’m wondering why this is?  A cursory search of the Internet reveals a few sites selling some odds and sods but not the same comprehensive selection that chrome offers.

We hope that our guide has helped you to decide what type of bath will work best in your bathroom. For more bathroom-related advice, stay up to date with our blog.

It’s now widely recognised that a mirror cabinet in the bathroom is an essential accessory, to perform tasks like shaving but also to reflect light and look aesthetically pleasing.  For a smaller bathroom or a busy area this useful item can also help hide a multitude of sins (and products).  As you may expect there are several choices available from clinical steel finish cabinets like the Home of Ultra Consul cabinet.

I previously blogged about why we should save water and some helpful hints for ways we can all reduce our demand for such a precious resource.

Here at Bathshop321.com we get to look at a wide variety of lovely bathroom products every day.  It must seem weird then that we spend so much time promoting using your bathroom and then blog about how to use it less!  We all have a responsibility to promote the best use of our products and help customers make wise product choices that help the environment.  This is going to be a two part blog, Part One about why we should save water and some practical everyday hints.  In Part Two I will recommend some items that are available to domestic customers that may mean a small change but can make a big difference.
