Experience Luxury with Bathroom Renovation Services in Ontario
The bathroom renovation makes a big difference in your home (and your skin care procedure). So it's not surprising that this functional space is one of the main priorities of home renovation. But choosing a completely new style can be challenging.
So Happy Constraint Company has collected a set of bathroom design ideas, each full of inspirational ideas to rebuild yourself, including relaxing bathtubs, glittering bathrooms and stylish showers.
How do you renovate a small bath?
You need to consider the renovation's performance, appearance, equipment and storage space. A complete bathroom should be at least 1 to 2 square meters. The bathroom length should be at least 1.5 meters in one way to accommodate the bathtub.
Canadian Building codes usually require 1.5 meters (finished dimensions) for the shower. Ensure the shower is large enough to raise your arms and bend in space quickly.
No matter how small the bathroom is, it should include certain items. GFCI, according to Canadian Wiring Codes, is needed to protect sockets in humid areas such as bathrooms and kitchens. These interruptions quickly break the circuit, preventing the potentially fatal shock caused by a hair dryer or electric rash.
Install small toilets in the bathroom
Small toilets, which consume 1.5 gallons of water per wash, are required by law in all new and reconstructed baths. Pressurized toilets effectively wipe the bowl with a one-time wash, but they make a powerful sound in this process. Gravitational models sometimes need two flashes to clean the bowl properly.
Choose a bowl with a large water surface for maximum efficiency. Make sure there is enough space around the toilet for easy access. Ideally, at least 1.5 meters from the bathroom, walls or items on each side are required.
Ensure ventilation in a bathroom renovation
Proper ventilation prevents moisture from falling into the bathroom, which can lead to mildew growth. Extract water by installing a fan. Most timer fans allow you to adjust the fan for 1 to 2 minutes to eliminate heat, steam and density.
Use proper lighting
Sufficient lighting is required for all spaces. Place a lamp above the bathtub or under the shower. Some completely invisible built-in ceiling lamps give a beautiful look to the bathroom. Avoid fluorescent lights that change the colour of your skin.
11 ideas for a small bathroom renovation in Ontario
Check out these 11 easy ways to make your small bathroom more spacious and luxurious.
-
Installing a rail sliding door
Instead of opening inward, sliding rail doors slide on a track inside the wall. It creates more usable space in the bathroom.
2. Trying the glass shower
Clear glass shower doors create the illusion of more space by eliminating visual barriers.
3. Save space by choosing the suitable toilet
There are many ways to save space by choosing a bathroom. The first is to select a wall-hung unit, where the tank is hidden inside the stud wall, allowing for an extra 0.2m of space in the center of the room. Another option is to create a wall niche for the toilet, which reduces its footprint.

4. Add a window for more light
Give a dark bathroom the look of a spa solarium by enlarging an existing window. This technique highlights the hard work you've put into the other details of the bathroom. Or install skylights to create a visual extension and add luxury to your bathroom.
5. Working with large mirrors
For a clean look with minimal visual clutter, choose a large mirror.
6. Use optical illusions
Large-scale graphic prints can make the area more noticeable and add visual impact to it at the same time. A narrow black and white checkered tile make a small bathroom look big. Add graphic appeal to your bathroom by tiling a geometric pattern on the floor or painting a checkerboard pattern on a wooden floor.
7. Installing small vanities to save space
The vanities are one of the areas where you can sacrifice some space. A miniature wall version may be even more to your liking.
8. Increase size with complex panels
When all else fails to enlarge a small bathroom, look up visually. Install vertically or horizontally, Ship-style panels can distract attention from the bathroom's smallness and enhance the room's design credibility.
9. Creating smart indoor bathroom storage
Eliminate the need for bulky storage units by creating wall panels that blend beautifully with your vanities. Or use the back of the mirror for extra storage with medicine cabinets built with hidden storage.
10. Relying on horizontal lines
In a bathroom renovation, horizontal corridors are great for expanding a room. This classic painting can transform a small bathroom. If you don't want to stripe the whole room, choose a prominent and attractive wall instead.
11. Creating an all-black luxury bathroom design
Make a lot of (the good kind) luxurious in your small bathroom with an all-black design. Allow your eyes to rest on other colours, such as the white pedestal vanities and dark red bathtub.
