6 products you need in your bathroom renovation

If you’re planning to renovate your Perth home, there is a good chance you’re looking to renovate your bathroom.  According to the 2015 Houzz & Home Report, the master bathroom was one of the most renovated living spaces of 2014. The survey reports that 15% of Australian homeowners renovated their master bathroom, while 13% renovated their guest bathroom. Moreover, a further 3% added an addition to their master, while 4% added an addition to their guest bathroom.

But what are the absolute essentials of a bathroom renovation? Don’t worry – I’ll help you out with it. I’m the head of purchasing at Ross’s Discount Home Centre, and I’ve helped many customers with their Perth bathroom renovations.

Today, I’ll do the same for you by listing 6 products you absolutely need in your bathroom renovation.

1. Bathroom Vanity

Many of our customers at Ross’s Discount Home Centre splurge on bathroom vanities. After all, your vanity is by far the most important part of your bathroom. A vanity is the centrepiece of a bathroom, and it defines the overall look and feel of your space.

Typically, a bathroom vanity consists of a basin or sink and the storage area surrounding it. However, it serves more functionality than simply offering storage and providing good aesthetics. Vanities are a part of bathroom cabinetry that holds the sink, conceals plumbing and, of course, provides storage. The benchtop also forms part of the vanity, and it is usually made of waterproof or moisture-resistant material.

Bathroom vanities are available in various designs, sizes and shapes and are necessary for any bathroom renovation in Perth.

For your bathroom renovation

For your Perth bathroom renovations, take a look at the selection we have to offer here at Ross’s Discount Home Centre. We have a wide range of vanities to complement the style and décor of any bathroom. In particular, the following three models are very popular with our customers undergoing a bathroom reno:

Brianna PVC Vanity: The Brianna PVC Vanity is unique – unlike any other vanity in Perth. It is 100% waterproof and will not succumb to mould or water damage. It comes in various sizes and includes a benchtop and an integrated basin. At an affordable price, the Brianna vanity is the ideal vanity for a bathroom renovation.

Tianna PVC Vanity: If you like a simple, sophisticated design, consider our Tianna PVC Vanity. This unique vanity, like the Brianna, is 100% waterproof and comes with a 15-year warranty. It is available in multiple sizes, and it offers fantastic value for money.

2. Bathroom Basin

After the vanity, a basin is the next most important thing to consider in your bathroom renovation. Basins are the most used item in a bathroom, so it is important to pay close attention to your needs.

Traditionally, bathroom basins were only available in ceramic white or porcelain finishes. However, today’s designs have come a long way. They are now available in a variety of materials. You can even have them made from black marble or colourful glass; the sky’s the limit. However, a basin has the ability to become the focal point of a bathroom. Therefore, your choice must blend in with the décor and overall style.

If you want to make a style statement with your bathroom renovation, go for a modern basin. On the other hand, traditional basins will also do just fine to offer an overall refined look.

For your bathroom renovation

Ross’s Discount Home Centre offers quality bathroom basins that are ideal for Perth bathroom renovations. We stock a variety of bathroom basins, from traditional basins to the latest trends.

Some basins that have been incredibly popular with customers in Perth include:

Cordan Vessel: The Cordan Vessel basin sports a brilliant contemporary design. This basin will do well to complement both traditional as well as modern bathrooms. It is stylistic and sophisticated and can become the focal point of your bathroom.

Asha Vessel: The Asha Vessel basin is a contemporary vanity that will look fantastic in any new bathroom. Featuring a modern design, this basin is designed to sit on top of a vanity top for bench-mounting.

3. Shower

I’m often surprised at how many people think that a shower screen is not a necessary item. Showers are a functional aspect of every bathroom and, in many cases, the highlight of a bathroom itself. In my personal opinion, shower screens are a must for all Perth bathroom renovations.

These days, shower screens are available in various styles and designs to complement the interiors of any bathroom. Some common types of shower screens include frameless and semi-frameless, round, rectangular and other odd shapes. Shower screens are usually made of toughened glass and can be clear or decorative.

For your bathroom renovation

Ross’s Discount Home Centre has an excellent selection of shower screens that will meet any bathroom renovation budget. We stock shower sets and glass shower panels, which can be bought separately.

Some of the most popular showers to consider for your renovation include:

Brighton Showers: A set complete with a pivoting (reversible) glass door and return panel, this shower screen is one of our bestsellers. This shower is also available in a matt black finish and is one of our best sellers.

Quadrant Shower: The Quadrant Shower has been designed specifically with affordability in mind. It exhibits stylish curves and is available in a variety of sizes. This shower screen is affordable and looks great in any compact bathroom.

Frameless Shower: If you’re looking for a frameless shower for your renovation, you won’t find anything better than the ‘Frameless Shower’. It is attractive, elegant and highly practical. It is also available in a variety of sizes.

4. Bath

Increasingly, more and more customers come into Ross’s looking to convert their bathroom into a more relaxed space. If you’re looking to do the same with your Perth bathroom renovation, then a bath is a must! Besides, you don’t really need to splurge on a bath, as they are quite affordable – it’s more a matter of finding the space to fit one!

With the wide range of bathtubs available today, choosing one for your renovations can be a challenge. Your bath must not be too large or it will look awkward in your bathroom. On the other hand, too small a bath will make things inconvenient for you. The best approach to getting a bath is to consult with experts such as Ross’s Discount Home Centre. We’ll simplify the buying decision for you.

For your bathroom renovation

Ross’s Discount Home Centre features a selection of freestanding baths and back to the wall baths. The following baths are particularly popular with our customers who have undergone bathroom renovations in Perth recently:

Galaxy Oval Freestanding Bath: Sleek, stylish and modern – that’s the Galaxy Oval Bath for you. Available in a stylish oval design, this bath will modernise the look of your bathroom design.

Morocco Back to the Wall Freestanding Bath: The Morocco Freestanding Bath redefines luxury in the bathroom. This bath is available in two size options and features bold, exquisite looks that will make a statement in any space.

Rio Back to the Wall Freestanding Bath: The Rio Back to the Wall Freestanding Bath exhibits gorgeous bold looks that will become the focal point of any bathroom. Because of its back-to-the-wall design, this freestanding bath is best installed against a wall or panel.

5. Bathroom tapware

Bathroom tapware and mixer taps are other essential items for any Perth bathroom renovation. Not only do they need to be functional, but they should also look stylish. Tapware comes in all styles – square, round, contemporary, traditional and many others.

When purchasing tapware for your bathroom renovations, consider the ease of use, water efficiency and plumbing. With these three things in mind, go for one that will suit the interiors of your bathroom space.

For your bathroom renovation

Elle Project Stainless Steel: Elle Project Stainless Steel Mixer is a fine example of modern tapware design. It is a high-performance and high-spout tap that boasts excellent water efficiency.

6. Toilet

Toilet designs have certainly come a long way over the years. Today, toilets can be the defining factor in a bathroom. They serve the purposes of functionality and style both. Therefore, you should choose your toilet carefully for your Perth bathroom renovations.

Toilets are available in a variety of styles and designs. You should consider your bathroom’s interiors and décor to choose a toilet suite accordingly. If you’re unsure about anything, it is best to consult experts to help you decide.
