Ideas and advice if you’re remodeling your bathroom

Open the door and say, Ah. Your master bath can be more than just functional; it can be a spa.

Bathroom remodeling continues to be one of the most popular home improvement projects. It ranks consistently among the top 10 most reviewed categories on Angies List, which has more than 700 home and health categories.

What you can do with a bathroom depends on its size and whos using it.

Hall bathrooms are commonly used by kids and guests, and an update may be focused more on making the most of a high-traffic, cramped room. Ideas include replacing a mirror with a medicine chest faced with a mirror, or replacing a pedestal sink with a vanity that has cabinet space.

A master bathroom is usually larger and more private. Its a likely candidate for a spa makeover. Some ideas from highly rated remodelers:

Replace the tub with a luxury shower featuring multiple showerheads and hand-held sprayers, or a large rain-style shower head.

Create a fresh, clean look with a frameless glass shower door.

Upgrade with granite or solid-surface materials.

Focus less on the latest design trend or fad, and more on elements, fixtures and colors that will stand the test of time.

Incorporate universal design, which is intended to ensure that a project is useful for people of all ages, abilities and sizes. Among the ideas: Replace lower toilets or sinks with taller ones that require less stooping or bending.
