How to update 1965 tiny bathroom and toilet?

[Aarti1]

I don’t have a big budget to do all the work so needed some hints to update it.

Hello @Aarti1 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your question about updating your bathroom.

One of the most affordable ways to revamp the look of your bathroom is to paint the tiles. This will save you from having to demolish the tiles, relining the bathroom and waterproof the wet areas. I suggest using the Dulux Renovation Range, this is a versatile painting system that allows you to paint wall and floor tiles.

In regards to the appliances in your bathroom, I suggest changing your vanity to an Estilo 450mm Vanity with Semi-Recessed Basin and 1 Tap Hole or an Estilo 600mm Wall Hung Vanity. These vanities have cabinets under them which is perfect to hide the plumbing. For your toilet, I recommend replacing it with a brand new Mondella Concerto Back To Wall Rimless Toilet Suite WELS 4 Star 4.5L/Full.
