I need remodel inspiration/tile colors for bathroom

7 years ago

We are getting our bathroom completely remodeled (my husband is permanently disabled so we are having this turned into a walk in shower for his safety) so we figured for resale we might as well do a complete renovation, pick out nice tile etc. make it look nice!

This bathroom is connected to our master bedroom. It is a small bathroom and there are no windows, so no sunlight coming in.

I want it to look nice, obviously remodeled! I want it to look the best of its potential!

but know nothing about bathrooms haha!
We are going to go to floor and decor and attempt to pick out tyle/match it all up. Any advice??

You need a plan! In this case I would recommend a designer to help sketch out a real plan...especially if you want to be ADA compliant and so your husband has a safe place to shower. Who is doing the work? Some contractors have experience in this. Also in regards to Floor & Decor be careful there. Some stuff is ok and some is literal garbage. My contractor told me not to pick any tiles with a PEI rating of 3 or under for flooring or shower tile! It’s not good quality!

consider doing a curbless shower. Maybe even a wall-mount toilet. (don't know what the budget is, but both of these will cost more). check w/the city or state and see if they have an allowance to give you to turn your bath into ADA for your husband. In some situations they will pay for a portion to convert.

I would lose that tower and do a larger vanity w/more storage.

I'd also do a wall mount faucet which will make cleaning easier for you! It's not that difficult for the plumber to put the lines in the wall. he will have to come out to redo the shower anyway.

another option is a floating vanity. you could put baskets underneath for extra storage if you need it.

as for the shower, think of doing a little pony wall, like in the pic, with a glass panel atop, and leaving the entire doorway open. that way he can roll right in. (you can have a built in bench in the shower or one that pulls down. grab bars can also be installed

curdles, linear drain at the entrance, single panel glass, and teak bench.

or you may choose to do no pony wall and just have a door that swings open.

These have to be done by someone qualified to understand floor slope! so make sure you choose a pro.

I just redid a shower for my neighbors. they took out their tub and did this

no door, just a single 36" glass panel. (not shown here)

I also gave them wall mount faucet. quartz countertop and this is a 36" vanity.

extra storage in the niche (shelving not done yet) and over the toilet.

We agree with Beth on losing the tower and checking with the city to see if they will cover a portion of the costs. It might be nice to get a bigger vanity and go for a a walk in shower.
