By Renovations Plus of Naples | August 10, 2021

Pause for a moment and reflect upon the last time you entered a bathroom that completely took your breath away. There were likely more significant features than just a washbasin, corner shower and a toilet.  Utterly fine bathrooms incorporate spectacular design features and extra elements that create a high-end, multi-functional space.

When it comes to remodelling your bathroom finding inspiration is easy on renovations plus, however after seeing the bathroom of our dreams, many of us ask the big question, how much will that cost

In today’s post, we will be exploring precisely that question and some bathroom options to consider. Locally in the Naples area more and more people are looking to refresh their bathrooms, in short, the answer is there isn’t a one-hat fits all solution. There are several factors entailed with accurately pricing up a bathroom makeover.

Food for thought

Before we look at the numbers, why not consider these excellent bathroom ideas to create a stylistic refresh?

Closet comfort

We are seeing a trend in the Naples area of more and more home enthusiasts creating a walk-in closet. While this might not be your first priority for a bathroom remodel, it’s a rapidly become a favoured choice for those who enjoy its easy access and practicality. A small fitted closet can store all your trinkets, not to mention fresh towels and spare toiletries.

Dividing areas and partitions

For bathrooms with plenty of space, divided areas are a great idea. For example, a separate closed toilet with a lockable door is ideal for larger families or for adding extra privacy. It’s a fabulous way of adding extra space and depth to any bathroom, not to mention more than one person can utilize the bathroom at once.

Sink and surrounds

If you can part with the countertop space surrounding a standard sink, why not consider a vessel sink? These perch nicely on top of your counter and instantly add an aesthetically pleasing stylish feel and are a quite the centre point in remodelled bathrooms.

Spa bath

For those that love to soak and while away a tough day, a luxury tub is an excellent edition. Depending on your style, you could add a freestanding bath with ornate legs, or a jet spa corner tub. Either option makes for an elegant bathroom addition.

Walk-in shower

For areas with a larger footprint, why not consider a sperate tub and a walk-in shower. The surrounding walls can be developed to create a focal point with patterned mosaics, or a sleek, smooth marble finish. Both are popular trends we have noted in the Naples area.

Dressing area

Much of great design comes with knowing what one should add, and what one should take away. A simple dressing area with a vintage mirror or vanity table offer a great space to keep toiletries and a serene spot to get pampered. You can add a comfortable chair to make it an ideal place to relax into getting ready.

First things first, check the average costs.
