Idea For Remodeling A Small Bathroom With A Towel Warmer Wall Mount
By Steve Gee
A great space saving idea for remodeling a small bathroom
When you remodel a small bathroom the most important question you have to ask yourself is "how can I make more room?" You want to get the most out of your new ceramic paradise and often that means getting as much into it as you can.
When I remodeled my small bathroom I wanted to include a decent shower. The one I was using over my bathtub just wasn't doing it for me and I had set my heart on a shower cubicle apart from the bathtub completely. My problem of course was lack of space.
When I looked at my old bathroom it was already full of fixtures and I was having a hard time trying to work out how on earth I was going to rearrange things to add a shower into the mix. The breakthrough came when my contractor made what I thought at the time was a silly suggestion but came around to believing that it could work in any bathroom including yours.
Bathroom towel warmer wall mount
My contractor suggested that I threw away the radiator that was taking up space at floor level and replace it with a nice looking stainless steel towel warmer that would heat the bathroom as well as the towels. Ok so where's the space saving?
He then suggested that I used a wall-mounted towel warmer to double as a radiator and fit it on the wall over the end of the bathtub. This would save a lot of space because the radiator would now be on a wall that would otherwise be doing nothing.
The more I thought about this suggestion the less silly it became so I went with it and you can see the result in a bathroom remodeling before and after picture here: Remodeling Pictures Of Bathrooms Before And After
Could this work in your small bathroom?
Careful small bathroom remodeling can work wonders
The wall mounted towel warmer idea worked out very well for my small bathroom and it could do the same for you. You will find that the bathtub gets used a lot less if you have a separate shower so the heated towel rail can be used for warming towels most of the time. It will heat you bathroom, be out of the way and it won't take up any of your precious floor area.
If you spend time on the design of your small bathroom remodeling project before you start any work you will be surprised at how much space you can save by experimenting with small sized toilets, small deep bathtubs, tiny wash basins and carefully shaped small shower cubicles. It's worth taking the trouble to do this at the start of your project because you will reap the benefits later.
