Maximizing every inch of space is essential when your bathroom is on the smaller side. At James Russell Roofing & Restorations, we can help you take your space back and create long-term storage solutions for small bathrooms. Here are a few of our top tips for a renovation that delivers.

Stick with a Light or Neutral Color Scheme

A neutral or light color scheme enhances the perception of space and keeps a small area from feeling even more restricted. White is usually the best choice, since it lightens a room and creates an illusion of openness. When choosing faucets and accessories, stick to a single metal finish.

Install Floating Vanities

Floating vanities create the illusion of a more spacious bathroom. Elevating the vanity off the floor frees up space and improves the flow of the room, and the area underneath can hold extra towels, baskets, or a small trash can.

Choose Glass Shower Doors

A sleek glass shower door can completely change the ambiance of your bathroom. Clear, unobstructed glass extends the line of sight and makes the whole room feel much larger.

Strategic Lighting

Bright neutral tones and strategic lighting make a bathroom feel more expansive and inviting. For an added touch of elegance and functionality, consider mirrors with built-in lighting.

Built-In Storage Solutions

Recessed shelves integrated into your shower or walls create more room for toiletries, keeping every bottle and bar accessible but tucked away.

Lengthen Your Counter Space

If a small counter leaves you cramped during the morning routine, consider extending the countertop to create more room for your go-to products.

Compact Fixtures for Small Bathrooms

Space-saving fixtures such as corner sinks, wall-mounted toilets, or free-standing showers conserve square footage while offering full functionality without compromise.

Optimize Vertical Space

Make the most of your walls: shelves, hooks, or slim cabinets positioned above toilets or doors put every inch of the room to work.
