If you want to upgrade a bathroom, but the space is small, you might believe there's a lack of remodeling options available. However, you can transform it into a beautiful, functional area with some creativity. Here are a few ideas for a small bathroom remodel to consider that will enhance the space.

How to Remodel a Small Bathroom

1. Utilize Space Efficiently

A small bathroom has limited space, but you can maximize it by not letting tight corners go to waste. Installing a corner sink will open up the room. However, if this isn't possible, placing a tall, thin cabinet will provide additional storage for everyday bathroom items like towels and toiletries.

Another step you could take is to add a wall-mounted vanity. Not only will this increase storage, but it also frees up floor space, making the area feel larger. The same idea applies to a wall-mounted toilet, which is popular for small bathroom remodels.

2. Strategically Place Tiles

The right bathroom tiles can create the illusion of more space. To accomplish this goal, use larger pieces. This approach prevents having an excess of grout lines, which can make the room feel smaller.

In the shower, extend the tiling all the way to the ceiling. Select mosaic or pattern materials if you want to add a decorative touch to your bathroom remodel. 

3. Get Creative with Lighting

Lighting can impact the look and feel of a small bathroom. To make the ceiling appear higher, install cove or recessed fixtures. Supplement them with bright LED bulbs. These will light up dark areas, making the space look less cramped. If you have a long, narrow bathroom, position the lighting to illuminate the back wall. This approach will help the room look wider.
