There are a lot of different reasons for renovating your basement bathroom. You might want to enjoy your living space to the fullest or just boost your home’s overall market value. Whatever the case, you’ll want to do an absolutely outstanding job, even when you’re on a tight budget.
The truth is, basement bathrooms get neglected, mostly because people simply don’t think it’s within their budget. Well, you don’t exactly have to be a billionaire to do it. You can easily do a bit of remodeling on a budget. Think about it – renovation is all about spicing up something that’s already there.
So… basement bathroom renovation doesn’t need to be a pricey construction project, but rather some simple budget-friendly upgrades that will add a special touch. Adding the right accessories, textures, and colors to your basement bathroom can completely transform it and it doesn’t cost much.
Here is what you can do:
Take Care of Floors and Walls
Start with the walls and floors first. Lighten up the room by applying a semi-gloss or satin paint color finish. That should brighten up your bathroom and add some light to the space.
Light colors make your bathroom look bigger and more spacious. It’s a simple visual illusion but it’ll do the trick. The best colors for basement bathroom walls are pale yellow, light grey, soft beige, and creamy white. Take care of your low ceiling by painting it up to two shades lighter than your walls to get that taller-looking effect.
Adding a linoleum floor adds a nice and modern touch. It’s quite affordable too.
Lighting and Fixtures
People never want to talk about bathroom fixtures. Let’s face it – old showers and toilets probably need a good clean-up to bring back their sparkle and shine. If they’re damaged, consider getting one-piece shower inserts, as those are the best and most convenient solution for an outdated or damaged shower. It’s also the quickest way to get the bathroom to look fresh.
Now, in most cases, basement bathrooms don’t have a proper lighting source like a window. If you can, add a window, because natural light is the ultimate way to brighten up a room.
Use lightweight, natural-woven shutters, blinds, or shades for some extra earthy texture. If there’s still a need for artificial illumination, pendant lights, track lighting, wall sconces or recessed ceiling lights will add a nice touch.
Add Some Accessories
When it comes to accessories, it isn’t a must – but they’re a perfect way to give your basement bathroom an instant face-lift. Get rid of those old bath linens and replace them with fresh modern linens to create a spa-like feel.
Washcloths and fluffy white towels will refresh your bathroom in no time. You can also use shag bath rugs, mats, and shower curtains to spruce up the space. Modernize your basement bathroom with simple accessories and you’ll find yourself spending more time in there than in the rest of your house.
