Ensuite bathroom renovation

🚿🚽 Renovating our small ensuite bathroom

 

Our first big DIY project was to renovate our ensuite bathroom. We did everything ourselves from demo, re-lining the villaboard walls, screeding, waterproofing, tiling, installing new cornices, painting and installing all the fittings and fixtures. We wanted to achieve a light, bright and clean look as it is a small bathroom so we opted for all white tiles on the walls and a grey large-format floor tile. To keep consistent with the matte black tapware, we opted for matte black finishes on all the other bathroom fitting accessories (toilet flush button, toilet roll holder, hand towel holder, shower caddy, shower screen knob and the vanity drawer pulls).

Re: Ensuite bathroom renovation

WOW!! Well done guys, amazing effort! 

 

Love how the lay out its still the same but the bathroom looks so much more bigger and welcoming. And great job with the finishes, such as the taps and the oval mirror.
