To help you make the most of your bathroom, we've looked at the most popular styles. You'll know how important it is for your bathroom to be well-planned, regardless of whether you're just starting out or are an expert.
To achieve a
functional and beautiful space, it is important that everything is sized
correctly and fits in your bathroom. We've covered 5 common bathroom sizes
to help you make informed decisions.
Downstairs Toilets
The downstairs
toilet is usually the smallest bathroom size. They are often the most
neglected bathroom when it comes to renovations. They are far more
important than people realize. They are not only the most important
bathroom on the ground floor but they also tend to be the most frequently used
by guests. It's essential that you leave a lasting impression by making
your bathroom as functional and attractive as possible.
The minimum size
of a toilet room in the UK is 70cm by 130cm. It is possible to make it
work, especially if you only need a toilet or a basin. However, we recommend
that your bathroom layout allows for at least an 80cmx140cm down-side
toilet. Although it may seem like a lot, an extra 10cm will make your
toilet feel larger, especially for taller people.
Compact Ensuite Bathrooms
The layout of
the bathroom will determine how big your ensuite bathroom is. You don't
have to sacrifice the luxury of an ensuite bathroom if you are concerned about
the space needed. There are many options that can be made to make them smaller,
with some options nearly as small as the minimum size toilets. However,
you will need to carefully choose the fixtures and fittings.
We recommend
that you abandon plans to add a bathtub to your small ensuite. To give the
illusion of a larger space, you'll need to make sure that there is enough floor
space.

Minimum size for
an ensuite bathroom is 1m x 2. You should have enough space to fit a
toilet, basin and shower enclosure. As long as the options aren't too
complicated.
Bathrooms for small spaces
There are many
options for small bathrooms if your bathroom layout allows for it.
To make your
space more cohesive, we recommend choosing a small bathroom suite. You can
find attractive packages, such as this one by Cove, that include a bath tub, a
toilet, and a basin. They are all priced at an affordable price.

There are tons
of compact baths that can be found, with sizes starting at 1200mm x
600mm. These may not be suitable for taller people. If this is the
case, consider a shower enclosure. It is not a wise decision to compromise
comfort or convenience.
Family Bathrooms
The layout of a
family bathroom should maximize the space available and not become
cramped. Make sure you consider ease of use when making your choices and
make sure to choose products that are suitable for everyone in your family.
To increase
safety, you should make sure that your family bathroom has designated storage
areas for towels and other toiletries. Consider adding a heated towel
radiator to your bathroom and a wall-hung bathroom cabinet. This will keep any
potentially dangerous items out of reach for children and your floors clean.

designing the master bathroom, we recommend that you make conscious decisions
to improve comfort.
