Turning a small bedroom into a fantastic bathroom renovation was the challenge that faced our editor and her partner. Well we are glad to say after a lot of elbow grease and a few years down the line the bathroom renovation is finally done.
Miranda told us “When my partner and I moved into our house we didn’t have a main bathroom so needed to convert one of the bedrooms into a bathroom, a big job as we had to start from scratch” .
“I spent lots of time scouring the Internet for bathroom pictures and also cutting out bathroom pictures of all shapes and styles I liked from magazines. This was so valuable and through the bathroom renovation process I always referred to both sets of bathroom pictures for inspiration.”
“I am delighted to say that a couple of years down the line, a huge amount of elbow grease, lots of pipe bending, plastering, tiling, painting, plumbing, leaks and laughs… we are finally there and our bathroom renovation is done”

“The bathroom renovation has taken us a long time as we have done most of the work ourselves and also the house needed new plumbing system installed, electrics, re-plastering … you name it we needed to change it, and the works are still on going.”

“Taking on a bathroom renovation from scratch is a huge job, and its only now we are finally seeing the benefits of our hard work. We spent a lot of time planning the bathroom design and finding the right fixtures and fittings to get the finish we envisioned”
“As we did most of the labour in the bathroom renovation ourselves it meant we could spend our budget on quality fixtures and fittings, which we hope will stand the test of time and also give a quality finish”
This bathroom renovation really shows what can be done with some proper planning, alot of hard work and some real attention to detail.
