Before and After: Bathroom Renovations - Part 5

Before: Beleaguered Bath

Among the many problems in this bathroom addition, dark and dated colors on the walls, ceiling, vanity, and trim -- along with poor lighting -- made the space feel cramped and cavelike. Without a door to separate the bedroom and bath, the room failed to achieve an escape-to-the-spa feel.



After: Clean and Serene

To keep renovation costs down, the homeowners kept the Chippendale-style vanity but revived it with crisp white paint. To avoid water damage, the wood countertop received several coats of high-gloss enamel paint. To lighten up the room, the homeowners chose soft blue paint for the walls and ceiling, and the existing trimwork was painted white. A mirror with a silver frame and new sconces bring out a refreshed vintage style. A pocket door -- seen in the mirror -- conceals the new toilet, where the shower once stood).



 Before: Beleaguered Bath (Continued)

The bathroom was plagued with a bad layout and a number of other troubles. Improper installation of the steam shower and spa tub resulted in cracks and leaks, rendering these fixtures unusable. A toilet between the doorway and tub also wrecked the spa feel.



 After: Clean and Serene (Continued)

The homeowners decided to remove the tub, board over the window, move the toilet, and convert the area into a walk-in shower. Classic white subway tiles cover the shower walls and help to brighten the room. The homeowners kept the white hexagonal floor tiles to enhance the room's old-fashioned aesthetic.
