The first place to start a bathroom upgrade is to reduce clutter. This is important to help you keep your bathroom organised. Most design experts are in agreement that decluttering is a crucial step to make your bathroom more modern.

1. Functional storage

Your bathroom can get an easy and affordable facelift with good old-fashioned decluttering. Consider compact storage shelves, wall cabinets as well as floating shelves. Not only are these cost-effective options to modernise your bathroom but they will also increase storage space while removing clutter. Get creative with containers and hooks added to the back of your cabinet doors to add extra space-saving options.

2. Improve the lighting

In most cases, bathrooms have little to no access to natural light. As such, there is a need to introduce extra lighting to your home if it is dim and unwelcoming. As you plan your bathroom remodel, consider changing or adding to your current lighting to improve the functionality and mood of the space. Well-located adjustable and purposeful lighting can greatly improve the ambience of your bathroom. Updating and relocating your bathroom lighting can be a good investment in both style and money terms.

3. Add colour

Creative use of colour can instantly upgrade the look and feel of your bathroom. Looking to remodel your bathroom on a budget? Luckily, cupboard and melamine paint or tile and grout paint is a cheap way to renew outdated fittings. For a truly modern touch, try pastel greys, browns or graphite within a neutral colour scheme.

4. Replace your old wallpaper

One of the first things you should look to update when remodelling your bathroom is outdated wallpaper. Do you know that old and tacky wallpaper that shows wear and tear will make your bathroom seem dated and feel more tired? With this in mind, replace your wallpaper with colours that are simple but bold. White is a great colour to give your bathroom a lighter feel and make the space appear larger.

5. Install a high-efficiency toilet

Most old toilets use a lot of water which is detrimental to the environment and is bad for your wallet. A high-efficiency and modern toilet will use significantly less water than an old toilet. Over time, this type of toilet can provide major benefits to you and the environment. Moreover, these types of toilets are not only stylish but also enhance the appeal of your bathroom.

6. Bring in some plants

You can introduce some plants into your bathroom décor to add a touch of class. You can use plants to energise specific areas of your bathroom. Besides this, plants are a great way to aerate your bathroom and deal with stagnate conditions. Pick your bathroom plants carefully to match to the available light so the plants can thrive.

7. Add tiles

Walls and floors covered with smooth and sleek contemporary ceramic tiles in neutral colours are the mainstays of the modern bathroom. As such, wall and floor tiles are a straightforward way to modernise your bathroom. Find a reputable tile fitter to undertake the task professionally, and efficiently and ensure good-looking results.
