Choosing products for a new bathroom involves more than finding individual items that look good. The products selected for the project should suit the room’s dimensions, practical requirements and overall style.
Taking time to consider these choices before installation can help create a room that is practical to use and consistent in appearance. Evesham Bathrooms can help customers select products for their project, with options available for both complete projects and customers who only require product supply.
Start With the Available Space
The size and layout of the room should influence the products you choose. The available floor area will influence which fittings are suitable and how they can be positioned within the room.
Measure the available area and consider the position of doors, windows and existing plumbing. The location of each main fitting can affect how easily people move around the room, so it is useful to consider the overall arrangement before choosing individual products.
A computerised design can also help show how different fittings may work together within the proposed layout.
Choose Sanitaryware for Everyday Use
Sanitaryware forms a central part of most bathroom projects. Toilets, basins and baths are available in different shapes, sizes and styles, so the choice should reflect both the available space and the way the room will be used.
A basin that provides sufficient washing space may be suitable for a busy family room, while a more compact option could work better where floor space is limited.
The same principle applies to baths and toilets. Rather than choosing based only on appearance, consider dimensions, positioning and how the fitting will function as part of the complete room.
Consider Shower Enclosures and Valves
The showering area also needs careful planning. Shower enclosures come in different configurations and sizes, making it important to consider how the enclosure will fit within the available space.
Shower valves are another component that needs to be selected as part of the overall shower arrangement. Considering the enclosure, shower fittings and surrounding space together can help avoid choices that do not work well with the intended layout.
Where several components are being selected for one project, discussing the complete arrangement before ordering can make the selection process more straightforward.
Combine Furniture With Practical Storage
Furniture can provide useful storage while helping to establish the appearance of the room. Vanity units, wall-mounted furniture and other storage options can be selected according to the available space and the amount of storage required.
Think about what needs to be kept in the room on a daily basis. Toiletries, towels and cleaning products all need suitable storage, and keeping frequently used items accessible can make the space easier to maintain.
Furniture finishes should also work with the sanitaryware, wall coverings and other elements rather than being treated as a separate choice.
Pay Attention to the Finishing Details
The smaller elements can make an important contribution to the finished appearance. Mirrors, lighting and accessories can be selected to complement the main fittings while adding practical features to the room.
Wall and floor coverings should also be considered carefully. Their colour, pattern, texture and suitability for the space can influence both the appearance and ongoing maintenance of the finished room.
Considering these details at the same time as the main products can help create a more coordinated result.
Visualise the Complete Design
When several products and finishes need to work together, it can be difficult to picture the finished room from individual product choices alone.
Computerised designs can provide a clearer representation of the proposed layout and help customers consider how furniture, sanitaryware and other fittings may look together before installation begins.
This can also make it easier to identify changes at the planning stage rather than after products have been selected or installation has started.
Choose the Right Supply and Installation Option
The level of service needed will depend on how each project is being managed. Some may want a complete project from design through to installation, while others may already have an installer and simply need the products supplied.
Evesham Bathrooms offers a supply-only service for customers who have their own installation arrangements. Products can be supplied for different parts of the project, from shower enclosures, valves and sanitaryware to mirrors, lighting and accessories.
For customers who want a complete service, bathroom installation is also available through the company’s own in-house team. This provides an option for customers to have the design, product selection and installation considered as part of the same project.
Bringing the Choices Together
Selecting products individually can make it easy to overlook how they will work together once installed. Considering the layout, dimensions, practical requirements and overall style at the beginning can help create a more cohesive result.
Evesham Bathrooms can assist with design, product supply and installation, while computerised designs can help customers visualise the proposed space before work begins.
Whether you are planning a complete renovation or sourcing products for an existing project, considering each element as part of the whole room can help you make informed choices that work for everyday use.
