Ask people to design their dream homes and they will talk about large bedrooms, a gourmet kitchen and a family room that just begs for parties, sleepovers and binge watching favorite shows. You will notice they made no mention of the bathroom at all, as if it was an oversight. Ask them specifically about the bathroom though and they have plenty of ideas with the common theme being more room and more storage space. They will want a room that is perfect for relaxing soaks in the tub or scrubbing down a cookie crusted toddler. A bathroom that cleans itself might also be a pretty nifty idea. While we can’t give you the magic of a self-cleaning bathroom, Dowdal Cabinets can give you the bathroom that is pretty close to the one of your dreams.
Making Use of the Walls and Vertical Space
If you have to step over or turn sideways in the bathroom, the last thing you are going to want is to use anything that takes up more of the floor. In fact, you might want to skip looking at bathroom vanities and opt for a sleeker pedestal sink instead. It will give you more room but unfortunately you lose the space beneath for towels and other items. This is where bathroom wall cabinets and bathroom shelves become the perfect answer. Not only do you have a place to put your needed items, you don’t lose a single inch of floor in the process. Wall units might also be a good solution to the problem of little hands that like to pull out all of the towels and get in to things they do not need to be touching.
If you are worried about your children exploring in the bathroom, we can help you figure out solutions like locking medicine cabinets and cabinet doors that are hinged in such a way that toddlers can’t get them open.
The Necessities
The bathroom needs to have a working toilet, a good bathroom sink and a tub or shower to meet the minimum needs of most families. But, it also needs places to put things like towels and extra toilet paper, including places to put things like cough medicine and headache pills. The amount of places you’ll need to put stuff will depend on how much stuff you have and how much space the bathroom has to work with. If you have unlimited space then you have unlimited room for the perfect storage solutions. If you have a smaller bathroom then you are going to have to get a little more creative and maybe work with a custom design to maximum your stuff storing capabilities in the small area you have available.
