7 bathroom upgrades from on-trend taps to easy-fit flooring
GIVE your bathroom a new lease of life without starting from scratch – try these hacks for a hassle-free glow-up. Tap in Rails, taps, handles and loo-roll holders… swapping out fittings can make a big difference. Looking for a traditional finish? Try the Bristan Corinth chrome effect pillar tap (below). Styles that are on trend include matt black and brass. Or mix metals for an eclectic designer look. Neat trick Clutter ruining your feng shui? Open storage helps remove things from the floor while providing handy surfaces for styling accessories and plants (perfect for 'shelfies!'). If you prefer to keep everything out of view, a wall-hung cabinet (like the GoodHome Nevado tall matt green double bathroom column, below) is just the job. And don't forget hooks behind the door for those fluffy towels and dressing gowns. Floor it If you're after a completely new look, lay down some luxury vinyl click flooring for an elegant feel, or go classic with monochrome tiles. A day's work is all it takes. Otherwise, spruce up your existing flooring by renewing the grout lines with a grout pen. For even more impact, tile paint can do wonders. Screen light Did you know that you can change a tired-looking shower screen without ripping out the whole suite? The GoodHome Ahti black bath screen, below, has a modern, industrial vibe, while the GoodHome Ahti black glass panel with aluminium grid maximises the light coming into a walk-in shower. Bright ideas Bathroom more Blackpool illuminations than zen spa? Switch up your lighting – the GoodHome Dorres pendant silver wall light (below) emits a soft, flattering glow for luxuriating in when you've run yourself a hot bath. Add more focused light sources either side of your mirror for pampering and preening – something like the GoodHome Bobwhite satin silver effect light. There are even mirrors with built-in illumination to save on space, like the Sensio Mistral Curved illuminated colour-changing mirror. Wonder walls Take your inspiration from top hotels by painting or papering the walls in your bathroom in a vibrant colour or bold print. If it's the latter, cover with clear decorator's varnish to create a water-resistant barrier. Little touches Finally, add a smattering of stylish accessories, whether that's a fancy new toothbrush holder and soap dish that complement your fixtures and fittings or a pot plant and wall art. Don't forget lovely smellies. It's all in the details.
