Small Bathroom Plumbing and Electrical Upgrades

When upgrading the bathroom in your home, it is important to consider what electrical and plumbing upgrades you wish to add.

As bathroom remodel experts in Livermore, we have the expertise to help you successfully upgrade your small bathroom’s elements.

Plumbing Upgrades

Our small bathroom plumbing upgrade considerations involve:

1	Replacing regular fixtures with space-saving fixtures, such as a wall-mounted compact toilet with a smaller footprint or a smaller corner sink to maximize the available space.
2	Installing a wall-mounted faucet will free up counter space and modernize your bathroom.
3	Replacing the shower curtain or enclosed shower with a frameless glass enclosure. This will add class to your bathroom and provide a more open and spacious feel.
4	Laying the pipes and plumbing efficiently to maximize the available space.
5	Choose a compact bathtub designed for smaller bathrooms. Opt for angled or curved options raised from the floor to maximize space and provide uninterrupted floor space that gives the illusion of more space.

Electrical Upgrades

For a more functional space, our small bathroom electrical upgrades involve:

1	Installing recessed lighting on your bathroom ceiling to avoid taking up headspace.
2	Installing vertical lights on either side of the vanity mirror to provide ample lighting and avoid shadows.
3	Looking for a compact ventilation fan for small bathrooms to eliminate moisture and prevent mold growth. Go with a low-profile model that fits seamlessly into the ceiling.
4	Adding electrical outlets to accommodate all your bathroom electrical equipment, like shavers and electric toothbrushes. We will ensure the outlets are all placed away from water for safety.
5	Replacing the traditional lighting with LED bulbs. LED lighting is energy efficient, has a longer lifespan, and produces less heat, making it ideal for small bathrooms.

Open-Concept Layout for a Small Bathroom Upgrade

Achieve an open layout for your Livermore small bathroom renovation by:

Remove the walls separating the toilet, shower, and vanity areas. An open space provides visual continuity and gives the sense of a large space.
Get a freestanding bathtub to be the focal point of the bathroom and provide an enhanced feeling of openness.
Use glass enclosures for the shower or bathtub instead of brick walls—transparent and frosted glass help to expand the space visually.
Replace the traditional floor-mounted vanity with a floating one. A floating vanity increases the airiness of a small bathroom and visually enlarges the space.
If you prefer privacy, use transparent or translucent partitions, as they will provide privacy while allowing light to pass through and give a sense of openness.
Use mirrors in your small bathroom to reflect light and give a sense of spaciousness. Large mirrors will visually expand any small space.
Add windows and skylights to brighten your bathroom and enhance the open and airy ambiance.

Small Bathroom Shower and Bathtub Layout Ideas in Livermore

As one of the major fixtures of every bathroom, the shower and bathtub must be carefully considered and placed to ensure complete optimization of the available space.

Layout idea	Result
Bathtub-shower Combination	Combining a bathtub and shower saves space, eliminating the need for the two to be separate fixtures. This is perfect for upgrading the small bathroom of your Livermore home.
Corner Shower	You can use the corners in your bathroom by installing a corner shower. These showers come in a triangular or curved shape, making them efficient for small spaces while still providing a comfortable showering space.
Freestanding Bathtub	If you want a bathtub instead of a shower, place it in one corner or against the wall to provide an open space for the other bathroom fixtures.
Walk-In Shower	A walk-in open shower design will maintain an open feel and enhance the spaciousness of your small bathroom. This layout would be great without a bathtub to occupy space.
Partial Walls	Half walls to separate the shower or bathtub area create a visual and private division while maintaining an open feel in the bathroom.
Compact Fixtures	Select compact fixtures. These fixtures are designed to fit in small spaces. Check for compact and freestanding bathtubs, corner sinks, wall-mounted slim toilets, and narrow profile showers that optimize the available space while maintaining functionality.
