Bathroom renovations, unfortunately, aren't just about making fun style choices. You'll need to make sure that your new bathroom is as functional as it is attractive. Here are some other important factors to consider when remodelling your bathroom.

5 Aspects of Bathroom Redesign
1) Plumbing
You'll need to decide in advance whether you plan to redo the plumbing in your bathroom or move forward with the existing setup. Many bathroom re-designers would take the opportunity to install brand new plumbing.
This can increase the value of the property and “future proof” the bathroom, as it would ensure there were no serious plumbing issues moving forwards. Since you're already remodelling the bathroom anyway, it might make sense to go ahead and replace the plumbing.
However, you might decide this is too expensive or too labour-intensive and that you want to leave it as it is. This is fine, but remember that the placement of your bathroom appliances depends on your plumbing layout. You'll have to do this anyhow if you want to rearrange anything. It's also a good idea to inspect the existing pipes for repairs just in case.
2) Ventilation
While most people don't think about this important factor when they're in a bathroom, ventilation plays a huge role in keeping the space fresh. If your bathroom isn't properly ventilated, you can run into problems with excess moisture, mould or mildew in the future. If necessary, invest in an extractor fan.
3) Storage
Don't get so distracted with all the big bathroom appliances and flashy decorations that you neglect storage. Take the time to add in a vanity unit, mirror cabinet or extra shelves—the additional space is worth it.
4) Lighting
Make sure your lighting matches the atmosphere you want to create. Whether you decide to use modern LED lights or even a traditional chandelier, make sure it fits in with the overall style of your new bathroom.
5) The Colour
You'll want to give your colour scheme a lot of attention. Otherwise, your bathroom may quickly become outdated.
Whilst a certain on-trend bathroom colour may look great now, it may fall out of favour in a year or so. If you are picking a fashionable colour for your interiors, make sure it can be replaced easily further down the line.
White and grey are always safe choices because they are soft, neutral, and easy to clean. If you want to use a bolder, more creative colour palette, be sure it's a colour you won't get tired of too soon.
