3 Tips for remodeling your bathroom Flooring If you want an easy-care floor: Go for porcelain or glazed tiles, and avoid porous natural stone tiles like limestone. Unless sealed vigilantly, they'll absorb drips and spills and become stained over time. If you want a nonslip floor: Choose tiles with textured surfaces, matte finishes, or sand-containing glazes. Another option: small tiles with lots of grout lines, which offer better "grip" than large tiles. Countertops Custom Granite countertops are not only used in the kitchen because of their durability, but they are also used in bathrooms. It gives the bathroom an elegant upscale look and feel. Lighting Make sure that you place the mirror with fixtures placed at eye level (around 66 inches), the ideal space is 36 to 40 inches apart. If you can, take a look at the fixtures on display before you buy to make sure the amount and quality of light is sufficient. You never want to solely rely on a ceiling fixture as it doesn’t give you the true quality.
