Small Space, Huge Potential
If your bathroom feels more like a closet than a sanctuary, you're not alone. Many older homes in Maineville, Mason, and the greater Warren County area have small, outdated bathrooms that weren't designed for modern living.
The good news? You don't need to knock down walls to create a bathroom that feels open, stylish, and efficient. At RGV Contracting, we specialize in smart design solutions that make every inch count.
Here are our favorite small bathroom remodeling strategies that make a big impact.
🪞 1. Use Light to Open Up the Room
Small bathrooms can feel dark and cramped. The fix?
- Bright, neutral colors like soft grays, off-whites, and warm taupes
- Large-format tiles that reflect more light and reduce grout lines
- Mirrors that stretch across the vanity or go full wall height
- Glass shower doors instead of shower curtains to visually open the space
RGV Tip: A backlit mirror adds style and extra lighting without taking up more wall space.
🛁 2. Go with a Space-Saving Layout
Sometimes the secret to more room is simply better flow. Our team helps redesign tight layouts with options like:
- Replacing a bulky tub with a walk-in shower
- Installing a corner sink or vanity
- Moving the toilet to maximize wall space
- Using a pocket door instead of a traditional swing door
We'll work with your existing plumbing when possible to keep costs down.
🧼 3. Maximize Storage—The Smart Way
Clutter makes small bathrooms feel even smaller. Solve this problem with clever built-in storage:
- Recessed medicine cabinets
- Floating shelves above toilets
- Vanities with deep drawers instead of standard doors
- Over-the-door towel racks or organizers
At RGV, we design bathrooms that look sleek but still handle real life.
🎨 4. Don't Be Afraid to Add Personality
Just because your bathroom is small doesn't mean it has to be boring. Bold choices can make your space feel intentional and designed—not just "small."
Consider:
- A statement wall tile or wallpaper
- Unique hardware or faucet finishes
- Fun floor tiles in a herringbone or geometric pattern
- Custom vanity with a splash of color
We'll help you strike the right balance between style and function.
💡 5. Upgrade Fixtures for a Luxe Feel
Swapping outdated fixtures for modern, efficient ones instantly makes the room feel newer and cleaner. Consider:
- Wall-mounted faucets to free up counter space
- Rainfall or handheld shower heads
- One-piece toilets with a sleek, minimalist profile
- Soft-close drawers and cabinets
Bonus: Newer fixtures often use less water, saving you money over time.
