The bathroom is that one room in the house where luxury is expected and, in many ways, this private space is special; a place where you can shut out the world and pamper yourself. If you are planning a bathroom renovation in 2023, here are a few luxuries that should be classed as ‘essential’. 

Digital Shower

This is one feature that you won’t regret including in your bathroom revamp. Electric hot water on demand is very energy efficient and you can set the water temperature and control the jets. More people are switching from bathing to showering, which uses less water and once you have experienced a digital shower, there’s no going back! Where to find a range of top digital showers? The bathroom designer Esher or your city has know trusted showrooms that stock  top brands, along with all the fixtures and fittings you will need to complete the project.

Underfloor Heating

What’s not to like about walking on a warm floor on those freezing winter mornings? There are two systems, a wet and a dry. The wet system can only be used if you have a hot water central heating system, where you add thin copper pipes under the floor and connect up to the central heating; the dry system comprises of electric blankets that are placed between the joists to heat the floor. Wet or dry, underfloor heating makes perfect sense in the cold northern European climate.

Stand-Alone Bath

No luxury bathroom would be complete without a free-standing bathtub, and there are many top brands to consider. A choice of steel, acrylic or stone awaits the homeowner that wishes to create a focal point by adding a stand-alone bath, with a range of colours and styles. Whether modern, contemporary or antique, your stand-alone bathtub will be the main feature of the room, providing you have adequate space. You might have to scrap the idea of a bath, especially if you are usually a shower person.

Customised Storage

If you want a bathroom that looks neat and tidy, have storage units made by a local joiner, who can make best use of the recesses. Small cupboards and shelves give you the storage space that you need, which should be in proportion to the room size. Wall storage is the obvious choice for a limited-space bathroom, and a local joiner is the best person to create made to measure storage units.

Heated Towel Racks

Why not enjoy the warmth of a freshly laundered bath towel when you step out of the bath or shower? A local electrician can wire them up if you are unsure about working with electricity and for a little extra cost, you can enjoy the luxury of warm cotton towel fabric against your skin. This also helps to keep the bathroom warm in the cold winter mornings and damp towels dry quickly when hanging on a heated towel rack.

Whatever your preferred style, your local bathroom store will stock everything you need to transform your bathroom into a luxury space. Planning is a critical aspect of bathroom renovation; if you are looking to test your DIY skills and save money on labour, you can acquire everything you need at trade prices from your local bathroom store. If you would rather engage the services of a professional bathroom renovator, your local bathroom store has a team of builders who are more than capable of a bathroom renovation project.
