White bathrooms can be a beautiful canvas for your ideas. Often people associate white bathrooms with tasteless rooms that remind them of sterile hospital rooms. With a little effort these tasteless rooms can be transformed into a room of elegance.
Browse some magazines, look at some design websites or simply look at our list of ideas to transform your dated bathroom to suit your style.
1. Add Accessories
This is definitely the most easy and fun way to make a plain white bathroom look wonderful. Add some colourful towels, or a nice basket with rolled up towels, floor mats, long jars, toothbrush holders, nice soap dishes etc. The possibilities are endless and they are easy to switch and change around to give you a different look every few months.
Adding a few colourful accessories truly transform your white bathroom.
2. Nature and Plants
Bring nature right inside your bathroom for a serene and peaceful experience. Add a nice vase of flowers on your counter top to enliven the space and give it some character. You could also put large and leafy potted plants in the corners to give your bathroom fresh and cleaning environment. Another idea could be to hang plants from the ceiling.
3. Add a Feature wall
Create a focal point in your otherwise white bathroom with a feature wall. You could either have a lot of colourful tiles or beautiful mosaic on one side of the wall to give it a nice Moorish feel. Another idea would be have a wall embedded with pebbles, behind a shower or a bathtub to give it a truly outdoor feel. The way to preserve the integrity of your bathroom is to have everything else in shades of white except the feature wall.
The ‘pebble wall’ gives a dramatic effect in this otherwise white bathroom
4. Add Warmth with shades of ‘white’
Having your entire bathroom in one shade of white can make your bathroom look sterile and cold. But if you add different shades of white to your bathroom, it will make it look elegant and warm. Also add some brass, ivory and metal to your bathroom accessories and fixtures to give it a truly luxurious feel.
5. Add Textures
Having different textured materials in your bathroom will add depth and character to your bathroom. An example would be having a shiny white wood with a marble sink on your vanity.
6. Add some colour
Add a splash of colour by adding some colourful paintings, towels or even replacing parts of the fixtures. An example would be to change the toilet seat to black or red or replacing your faucets and showerheads to nice brassy gold.

Tiling your bathroom in Auckland can be quite an overwhelming task. There are so many options and styles that it can be easy to get confused. People often loose their vision for their bathroom amidst all the options available online or in a catalog.
The reason people often take their time in choosing tiles is because floors and tiles are a big part of a bathroom. They can make a small bathroom look bigger or revamp an old bathroom. Follow our simple guideline in order to change the risky business of choosing the right tiles to a downright fun experience.
Size
The size and shape of your bathroom has to be taken into consideration when choosing tiles for the bathroom. You might like colour black and want your bathroom to look like an elegant powder room out of a bond movie, however if it is a small space then it will end up making your bathroom look even smaller. Use light coloured tiled in small spaces to make your bathroom look bigger and airier. If you do want to add a bit of character then add some colourful tiles in the corners or even the centre of your light coloured tiles.
The type of tile you use in your bathroom depends largely on the size of your bathroom
2. Look of your bathroom
Bathroom tiles can really change the look of your bathroom. Fixtures are only a part of the appeal in a bathroom, the real heroes are in fact the tiles. They can truly revamp your bathroom to suit your taste and style. If you are looking for an elegant touch or are you after a fresh and clean feel? The colour, textures and design of your tiles can unleash great potential for your bathroom.
3) Material of your tiles
Style and mood is all well good, but do not forget the practicality. The kind of material your tiles are made of can change the style of your bathroom. However different materials have different maintenance needs and hence should be taken into account while choosing the tiles for your bathroom.
Different materials have different maintenance needs. Choose the right tile for your family
4) Feature or not to feature
Featuring tiles on a wall or as an outline to the floors is a way to add that wow factor to your bathroom. Whether you want to add a set of feature tiles or not really depends on the kind of style you are going for. If you are planning to sell your home then make sure that your feature tiles are up to date with the current styles. Sometimes when you want to revamp the bathroom but do not want to change your entire floor tiles then you can opt for adding some nice tiles on one side of the wall and make it the focus of your bathroom.
5) Cost
Staying within your budget can prove quite a difficult task when renovating your bathroom. Good quality tiles can be quite expensive depending on the size of your bathroom. Our advice to our clients is to stretch their budget if need be and invest in some good quality tiles. Inferior tiles might fit in your budget initially but they will not last as long as good quality tiles which in turn will cost you more in the long run. Good quality tiles does not always equate to expensive. It is possible to find cheaper tiles if you do your research well. You should definitely try and get as many quotes are possible before deciding on the type of change you want to make.

Planning your bathroom renovation can be a very daunting task especially when you do not know where to begin! Follow our step by step process to get that perfect plan for your bathroom renovation.
Ask yourself a few questions
What exactly do you want?
Do you only want a few fixtures or all of them replaced?
Are your floors looking shabby and need replacing or are they staying?
How about the walls?
Is the design of your bathroom quite dated or do you like the look of your bathroom?
Do you want 1 bathroom renovated or do you want all of them done?
Do you need the layout changed to make your bathroom just a little bit more spacious?
Research
Write your answers down in your notebook so you have clarity on what is going and what is staying. Research is always the most important aspect of any renovation. If you research is not thorough then you are most likely going be full of regrets in the future.
Read online articles, and book specific to the kind of bathroom you are renovating. Look at what other bathrooms with a similar space look like. Go to a few shops around Auckland to see what kind of fixtures you like.
If you are after a certain look, then look around your home or other furniture shops to see if you could reuse cabinets and vanities for your bathroom. Don’t get too carried away with trends. When you research styles online or otherwise you will realise that there are certain looks that you are not fond of which will help you narrow down the look you actually want.
It is also a good idea to compare prices for the things that you do want to change in your bathroom. You might like see if you could get cheaper but high quality alternatives to premium branded fixtures. Many Auckland shops stock premium quality materials and fixtures which are in fact of better quality than their Italian counterparts.
Showrooms can give you a feel for how your fixtures feel and look
Plumbing
Our advice to clients is always to keep the plumbing the way it is and only changing it if absolutely necessary. Changing existing plumbing can put an astronomical strain on your budget. Try and plan your layout and design around your current plumbing to stay within your budget. Most renovation companies will give you plenty of options in term of layout and design. Also don’t forget to do your own research.
Make sure you have a clear picture about the plumbing system of your bathroom
Professional Quotes
If you are making small changes to your bathroom then it would not be such a bad idea to make the changes on your own. However it is always best not to try and renovate your bathroom on your own based on a YouTube video. Sometimes it is best to leave certain things on the professionals.
Ring a few companies before you decide on the one you want to employ as your bathroom renovators. Don’t rush things, get a few quotes, talk to the owner of the company and make sure they have understood what you require before signing the contract. A good renovation company would typically have a free consultation; give you detailed drawings of your plan, giving you options on designs and material before asking for a deposit. We always tell our clients to talk to several companies before deciding on which company to choose.

Bathroom Renovation Designs are as varied as people are.
Some people like a basic bathroom renovation, while others like all the bells and whistles they can get, turning their bathroom into a retreat from the pressures of the world. Many people would like a bathroom with more features or personality but haven’t been able to create what they want, because they do not have any idea of how to get bathroom design ideas that meet their needs.
We are going to give you some basics of bathroom renovation ideas for Auckland Homes, to start you on your way toward not just redesigning your new bathroom but perhaps leading to a complete bathroom renovation/ remodelling.
BATHROOM RENOVATION IDEA #1
How you use your present bathroom
The first thing you need to think about in renovating your bathroom is how you use your present bathroom, what you like about it and what its deficiencies are.
From this information you can begin to think about your ideal renovated bathroom. For instance, do you like taking baths, maybe in a whirlpool tub? Do you have enough storage space? How is the lighting in the bathroom? What about location – are your bathrooms in the right place? Do you have enough bathrooms or do you want to add one?
Start with some basic questions and begin to get some basic answers, and begin writing down what you want. From magazines and the internet compile a file or “scrapbook” of your ideal bathroom – layout, ideas for floor and wall treatments, and the type of fixtures you’d like to have.
BATHROOM RENOVATION IDEA #2
Do you need to add a new bathroom? If so, where will you put it?
Let’s focus on some beginning steps of bathroom designs and how to create a bathroom renovation as close to your ideal.
The first thing you should do is make a scale sketch of how your bathroom is now. This will give you a good idea of how much space you have to work with as you redesign your bathroom. After you have done this you will need to determine what arrangement of items you will want in your new bathroom, then draw templates of those items to scale and see where they fit into the space you have.
BATHROOM RENOVATION IDEA #3
Locating your fixtures in the proper order
As you get started with your bathroom design, you will want to think about locating your fixtures in the proper order.
In a full bath design, the sink is used most often, the toilet is used next most often, and the bath and/or shower are used the least. With this in mind, most bathrooms are designed with the sink nearest the door, the toilet next and then the bath or shower. So keep in mind location and accessibility in a renovated bathroom design.
BATHROOM RENOVATION IDEA #4
Expanding the size of your bathroom
At this point it is a good idea to think about whether you want to expand the size of your bathroom.
To do this, you will either need to expand into other space adjacent or adjoining the bathroom, or even build the bathroom out, perhaps adding a bump-out to your house. Adding space by enlarging outside is going to be more costly, require more work and contractors, and is probably only doable on the ground floor. For now we’ll focus on expanding within the space you already have.
So where can you get space to expand if you want to?
Is there an adjoining closet or room that you would not mind being a little smaller, so you can take space from it to add to your new renovated bathroom? If you are below an attic or you have space in a kneewall ( a partition that forms a side wall or supports roof rafters under a pitched roof), is that space usable? Be aware that using attic or kneewall space will take some structural work.
You may even think about taking a whole adjacent room to enlarge the bathroom.
You might take half an adjoining room for the bathroom if it is available; then convert the remainder of that room into a home office or other space. For homeowners who do not have children, or whose children have grown up and left home leaving an empty room, perhaps you can use the bedroom space they have vacated for expanding the bathroom.
BATHROOM RENOVATION IDEA #5
Bathroom Expansions
One reason for the trend in bathroom expansion is to add a shower separate from the tub, and perhaps replace the regular bathtub previously used for both showers and baths with a large soaking, whirlpool type tub.
Often the soaking tub can be placed under an eave or into a part of the kneewall, minimizing its larger space requirement, since with a stand-alone shower the need for space to stand up in the tub is not as necessary. Make sure however, that the bathtub has enough headroom to meet building codes.
Another reason for a bathroom renovation expansion is the installation of other items in addition to stand alone showers. Many bathrooms lack storage, and an expansion can help with storage of towels, cosmetics and other bathroom necessities.
Often today people are expanding bathrooms so that they may install an additional sink to have his and her sinks so that when getting ready to go out, there is not a struggle to use a single sink. There are many new and unusual designs for sinks today, many of them not as expensive as they may look.
Adding dressing rooms
Homeowners are now also adding dressing rooms off their bathrooms into adjoining space . A dressing room or walk-in closet off the bathroom allows them to take a shower or bath and have their clothing right at hand. Sometimes with a major remodel the walk-in closet can be entered from the bathroom and from an adjoining master bedroom.
Bathroom renovation designs are also being done to find alternate space for toilets, away from the sink, tubs and showers. Toilets are now often being placed in a separate space within the bathroom, a sub- room if you will, sometimes humorously called a throne room. This type of toilet setup can provide more privacy and allow more than one person to use the bathroom simultaneously.
BATHROOM RENOVATION IDEA #6
Installing a bidet
Although most often thought of as a bathroom fixture only in Europe, bidets are now beginning to be seen in more homes elsewhere in the world, adding an extra fixture adjacent to the toilet.
Bidets provide enhanced hygiene for users, and although still considered a luxury, they are showing up throughout the world. If thinking about adding a bidet, however, be aware that there may be special plumbing required (unlike toilets, bidets require both cold and hot water).
Many people are looking at large and small bathroom renovations as a way to enhance their lives, not only providing for hygiene, but creating a room that provides enhanced relaxation from today’s busy world. And extra space just makes a bathroom more usable. There are so many bathroom design ideas and themes available today, from modern to traditional to Asian design, people are looking at bathrooms as additional living space instead of merely functional living space.

With so many designs, beautiful fixtures and brilliant architects, designing a bathroom can seem like a fun filled experience. However, staying within your budget can turn this bathroom renovation process into a stressful experience instead. When clients give us a budget of around $8K to $10K, we always advice them to not try and re-vamp their whole bathroom at the same time. Here are our tips on how you can in fact change the whole look of your bathroom under $10,000.
Bathroom Renovations under $10,000 are a definite possibility! YES it is a possibility! Bathroom Renovation Ideas while spending Under $10,000 – On A Budget – NZ.
1.Decide on your priority for your Bathroom Renovation
Think long and hard about your priorities. Do you want to change the look of your bathroom or are you looking at changing that old bathtub that you have had for ages? Or do you want to add heated floors? The key to bathroom renovations under $10,000 is to have a clear sense of priorities and careful planning.
2.Renovating the whole bathroom
Renovating the whole bathroom can be a near-impossible task under $10,000. If you are still looking at doing it, then you will have to compromise.
You could choose the most important fixture that you want to replace and get the other fixtures either second hard or of a cheaper variety. Get your plumbing sorted first because the price for plumbing is unlikely to differ no matter what fixture you get. Once the plumbing costs are sorted, then get that one thing replaced that is really high on your list. For example you might be wanting to replace your bath, well then get out there and buy the bath of your dreams. However for the kitchen cabinets and sink, look around your home and see what you could re-use.
An example of this is reusing your living room cabinets that you aren’t using anymore. Get them varnished, polish your old sink and get them fitted in your bathroom. This can prove to be a very elegant touch. This kind of renovation can take up to $10,000.
The cabinets in this are bathroom have been reused from the previous living room of the client.
3.Make one fixture the hero of your bathroom renovation
Choose one extravagant thing that you want in your bathroom and make it a focal point. It could either be a Japanese bath with wooden skirting type benches around it to make it look like a spa or a waterfall shower. This focal point can be expensive but it can still fit in your budget as long as you do change much else in your bathroom.
A great example of making one part of your bathroom a focal point
4.Design Design Design
There are a multitude of possibilities if you are not looking at changing your fixtures and are focused on a re-vamp or a new style for your bathroom.
a) Make one of the walls a focal point: Use tiles, mosaic, marble or wood. Use whatever you most desire and use that material on an entire wall instead of the whole bathroom. This will keep your costs under $10,000 as Mosaic can be very expensive. You can make this wall the focus of your bathroom. You could couple that wall with a few mirrors or antique looking lamps to give it a Moorish look (especially if you use mosaic on the walls!!)
The use of Mosaic on walls and floors changes the look of the bathroom completely giving it an exotic Moorish feel
b)Replace your flooring:Replace your bland looking tiles for some colourful tiles. Add a bright rug in front of your sink cabinet, Paint your cabinets a dull gold, hang some brass lamps, add a few plants to add a bohemian look to your bathroom. This kind of renovation will only cost you $5,000-$7,000.
The type of tile you use in your bathroom depends largely on the size of your bathroom
c)Use Laminate:Laminate is no more a cheap and boring option! There are a lot of styles and available in laminate which mimic real wood/texture, plus they do not rot, make you allergic and also have a moisture proof board that will save your surfaces.
This bathroom uses textured laminate to give it a mature and sophisticated look
d) Picture Windows: You will be amazed at what a difference a picture window can make to your bathroom. Make sure that you buy a good quality picture window which is realistic as you do not want a shabby looking feel. Frame the picture window with a good wooden frame to make it look like a window. This should typically cost about $5000 to $6000.
This ocean picture window instantly gives this bathroom a serene and calm feel
e) Create an illusion of space: adding mirrors can make your bathroom space look bigger and creating depth which will completely revamp your bathroom. Use mirrors not just for your vanity but perhaps behind the door or the upper half of your walls. This will cost you between $2000 to $6000 depending on the area.
The mirror creates a dramatic effect in this bathroom and adding a touch of elegance
f) Lighting: lighting can do wonders to any room. Basic lighting is a must of course, but think about how you can highlight the special features of your bathroom with lighting. Maybe it is that gorgeous tapestry or a simple clean bathroom with a serene painting as a backdrop. Add ambiance and charm to these features by adding soft light.
This bathroom has very simple light fixtures making the room look fresh and sophisticated

When choosing a bathroom renovator to head up your renovation project, a few simple steps can mean the difference between complete confidence and sleepless nights.
1. Ask for Referrals and Look for Social Proof/ Reviews
Word of mouth — hands down, it’s the best way to find a qualified professional to tackle the job.
Ask relatives, friends and neighbors whom they have had good experiences with. Also ask what made it a positive experience, how the contractor handled problems and whether he or she would use the same contractor again. Check online reviews and testimonials for the company and make sure they are unsoliciated reviews.
2. Look at Credentials and Past Bathroom Renovations
With recommendations in hand, do some preliminary research, whether that’s with a phone call or a visit to the contractor’s website.
Find out whether he or she holds all the required licenses, as well as designations from any professional associations like the Licensed Building Practitioner. Look for contractors who have invested in coursework and passed rigorous tests in order to earn a particular certification.
3. Interview A Few Bathroom Renovators – Not Just One
Narrow down the list of contenders, and set up meetings. What is the magic number of contractors to interview?
Ultimately, the right amount could be one but no more than three. “With too many quotes, it gets too confusing trying to make a decision.”
How a contractor answers questions is extremely important, but communication goes both ways. One of the most important things [a homeowner] can find in a designer and a builder is somebody who listens to them, One of the things that’s made Superior Renovations successful is we don’t do all the talking.
4. Check References
Once rapport has been established, ask to see some of the contractor’s projects.
If they meet with approval, request references and then actually call the contractor’s former customers to check up on them. Ask how the contractor did at executing the project. Was it on-time and on-budget? Were they pleased with the outcome? Was there anything that could have been done differently?
5. Get it in Writing
After zeroing in on one Bathroom Renovator who seems right for the job, take a look at the documents he or she has prepared.
Do they look professional? Scrutinize the contract. Does it seem fair and balanced? Also, make sure the legal agreement includes the following:
– a bid price and payment schedule
– the scope of work
– a site plan
– a sequential schedule of primary construction tasks
– a change-order clause
– a written procedural list for close-out
– an express limited warranty
– a clause about dispute resolution
– a waiver of lien, which would prevent subcontractors and suppliers from putting a lien on a house should their invoices go unpaid by the contractor
If everything checks out, you can sign on the dotted line with confidence.

Absolutely thrilled with the outcome of our renovation of two bathrooms and kitchen in a double level home. Kevin and his entire team were an absolute pleasure to work with from the get-go. Every minor detail was attended to, and all our requests were accommodated. Cyrus deserves a special mention as under his watchful eye and expertise, nothing could go wrong.

I have recently finished a renovation in our 1930’s bungalow, updating the original (and I do mean original) kitchen and bathroom. Plus creating a new laundry and removing three fireplaces which created two new spaces including an office. From the initial appointment with Alison who came over and then provided drawings and a quotation, to the work with Frank, our project manager and the team, this has been a wonderful renovation experience. I would have described myself as a nervous-renovator prior to doing this, as I had never done a renovation before, but Frank, Alison, Sunny and all the team have worked so tirelessly and generously to create spaces that we love. Superior’s care in managing the project has meant that we have come away with much more than we originally sought to achieve and without the stress I hear others lament about when they renovate. I would recommend Frank, Alison, Sunny and the team at Superior Renovations wholeheartedly.

We engaged with three companies to completely renovate our downstairs and ensuite bathrooms. We elected to go with Superior Renovations as they provided us with a fixed price and specific timeline to complete the project (which two other companies could not do), and we were absolutely delighted with the end result. We love everything from the floor and wall tiles to the heated towel rails and from the LCD mirrors to the underfloor heating and soft close lids. We especially loved replacing the old tub in our ensuite with a walk-in shower.The entire process went incredibly smoothly, with the project being completed on budget and ahead of schedule. From the initial design phase to the final touches, nothing was too much trouble for the team. Superior Renovations conducted themselves with the utmost professionalism, ensuring every detail was perfect.Frank (Project Manager) and the team did such an amazing job. Totally professional outfit, top notch communication, all tradies were courteous, polite and respectful. Alex (Builder) was especially knowledgeable and offered great solutions as minor issues unfolded. Each stage of the renovation was completed on the day it was scheduled. The crew were always on time and mindful of our work from home arrangements. And I was also impressed with the floor protection that was laid out on the first day.Through no fault of Superior, we did encounter a major, unforeseen setback that delayed our renovation on the downstairs bathroom. Superior were patient with us while we sourced specialists to remedy the issue. But once that was all sorted, Frank and the team picked up the baton and charged ahead to the finish line, delivering two beautifully ‘superior’ bathrooms. We also experienced a minor electrical issue post-build. And even though it was unrelated to their renovation work, Frank promptly dispatched an electrician who quickly fixed the problem. Talk about above and beyond!In summary, we highly recommend Superior Renovations for anyone looking to undertake bathroom renovations in their home. We’re already talking about renovating the kitchen next and we’re so confident in Superior Renovations that we will most certainly be engaging with them to complete the task.A huge thank you to Frank, Alex and all the wonderful team at Superior Renovations:)

Absolutely love my new ensuite bathroom. Superior Renovations made the process so enjoyable, I'm truly delighted with the transformation from an old tired room to modern functionality.Jacob led a wonderful team of professionals who were considerate and efficient. He answered any query with reassurance and patience.I'm now looking at engaging them again for my main bathroom because I'm not fearful of renovating anymore and confident I'll get a superior outcome. They definitely lived up to their name!

Superior Renovations transformed our bathroom, and we couldn’t be happier. Cici, Jacob, Alex, and Ray were a fantastic team (Ray, our dog, is going to miss you). They tackled our old house’s quirks with creativity and attention to detail. We were especially impressed that they stayed within budget, even with a few surprises along the way. We’d definitely choose Superior Renovations again and highly recommend them.

We engaged Superior Renovations to transform our 30-year old, tired looking and problematic bathroom into something world class - and wow! The end result is simply stunning. The team led by Frank did an absolutely fantastic job. This was our first major renovation project and the entire process was easy and hassle free. The team delivered on schedule, within budget and the quality of their work is outstanding. If you are considering renovating - do not go past these guys.

Wish I had given more of my renovation project to Superior earlier in the process. Superior team was knowledgeable, skilled and exception to work with. Will certainly be a repeat customer if ever a need comes up.

My wife and I are absolutely delighted with the team at Superior Renovations - and the "superior" job and experience they delivered for us in renovating our ensuite and main bathroom. We are so pleased we chose them for our renovation.Everyone from Cici the designer, and Frank our wonderful and attentive project manager, down to the team of guys doing the heavy lifting were a real pleasure to deal with. We were kept informed every step of the way and everything was done to a very high standard. Nothing seems too much trouble for your crew (in fact Frank even became quite good at running after and catching our dog when the naughty little boy escaped), and they even helped me out with a couple of small extras around the house at no additional cost.Their pricing was very fair - no hidden extras, and they are such hard workers! But I think what impressed me most was that everything they promised was done exactly on the day they said it would be done, and at the time they said it would be done. They were a very respectful, friendly team who obviously take immense pride in their work.Thank you Superior team! Recommend 100%

This place is excellent. The service is fantastic. Eunice was amazing. She is efficient, knowledgeable and professional. Their prices are excellent. We have chosen to go with them for an ensuite renovation.We have now had the pleasure of Superior completing our ensuite. It's a big WOW from us.Communication, professionalism, making sure they checked in with us about preferences, quality of workmanship, quality of materials are all 5 stars.They completed the job early. Payment structure was excellent. The staff were polite and respectful. If there was an issue it got sorted immediately. Follow-up was prompt. There was no lingering to tidy up loose ends. Rubbish taken away immediately. Full respect of our neighbours using a shared driveway with us. Finally Jacob our project manager was the best. He held the job together from beginning to end.To be honest...we were 'blown away' by how smoothly it all ran.
