North Leeds Plumbing & Heating – Home Improvement and DIY Advice

Whether you are thinking of selling your house and want to maximise your profit or are just fed up with staring at the same tired fixtures as you lie in the bath, brightening up your bathroom should be a priority.

What’s more it need not cost a fortune. Have a good look around the bathroom. Isolate areas that need attention and then go to work compiling a list of trouble spots.

Top of the list is sure to be those boring fixtures. Things such as vanity unit doorknobs and hinges can be easily and cheaply changed. You will be amazed at how much difference such small items can make.

Give the room a lick of paint. Change the colour scheme. It will take a weekend at most. Think vibrant colour. Be experimental. Paint no longer costs the earth and it will be like having a completely new bathroom.

Painting not your thing? Then try wallpaper. Create a mural or alternate different patterns on each wall. Bathroom wallpaper is easy to hang and wrinkle resistant. Choose from a huge variety of patterns and designs.

Throw out those tired looking towels. Invest in some of the heavy styles in plush. Again, choose something colourful that complements your bathroom walls.

Don’t forget to have look at your shower curtain. When was the last time it was changed? Perhaps pick one in a fabric and line it with vinyl. There is really no need to keep buying the cheap and nasty plastic ones from the local supermarket.
