What bathroom fixtures do I need for a complete renovation?
For a complete renovation of your bathroom, you will need several items and tools. These depend on your current fixtures, your renovation goals, and sometimes personal preferences. Here is a general, basic list of the bathroom fittings you may need:
- Floor and wall tiles: Tiles are an essential part of bathroom fittings. They protect the walls and floors from water and moisture and contribute greatly to the bathroom’s aesthetics. In addition to tiles, you will also need tile adhesive and grout.
- Sanitary fixtures: These include a toilet, shower or bathtub, washbasin, and possibly a bidet. When making your selection, pay attention to quality and, above all, water-saving options.
- Fittings: Whether for the shower, washbasin, or bathtub, fittings are essential. Modern, traditional, or rustic - there is a wide range of styles to choose from.
- Cabinets and shelves: Cabinets and shelves are important for storing personal items and care products. They also help keep the bathroom tidy and clean.
- Lighting: The right lighting contributes to the atmosphere and makes daily bathroom routines easier.
- Bathroom accessories: These include towel rails, soap dispensers, toilet paper holders, and shower curtains or screens.
Don’t forget to also get the necessary tools and materials such as a hammer, screwdriver, drill, silicone sealant, and perhaps even a circular saw.
