Top tips from Victoriaplumb.com

Thursday, June 21st, 2007

Bathrooms have so many necessities it’s important to be creative in your design process and make the most of the space you have. For example a large master bathroom can be spoiled with the incorrect choice of bathroom products and a smaller additional en suite can be cramped without the perfect design layout.

Here at Victoriaplumb.com we endeavour to make your bathroom design experience as easy as possible by providing an extensive collection of luxury baths, basins, showers, bathroom suites and handy accessories. We hand select all of our products to ensure luxurious quality and each item has bespoke packaging to ensure it reaches you in perfect condition.

As well as providing you with all your bathroom product needs we would also like to offer you some advice on interior tips for your dream bathroom. Many people forget that the floors and walls of your bathroom will play a large part in providing the illusion of space and go straight for the essential bathroom items without using their walls and floors to their advantage! Lighter coloured walls are ideal for reflecting light and maximising existing space so check out suitable bathroom paints and tiles. Smaller bathrooms will benefit from using large wall or floor tiles because they stretch space, combining this with a plain floor rather than patterned or fussy floorings will also benefit any quest for illusionary space! Dark floors need not be ruled out as they can make a compact room look less cramped or can even be used as a focal point in a more ample bathroom area.

Although our fabulous roll top and free standing baths can create an amazing focal point they obviously aren’t always practical for all bathroom needs, however you don’t need to sacrifice on luxury when it comes to compact style! Keep an eye out for the new and exciting Victoriaplumb Concept corner bath, an offset bath that is deceptively generous in size; ideal for small bathrooms without compromising on comfort.

Our stunning glass walk in showers will open up the space in your bathroom by allowing light to flow, by choosing one of our luxury walk in showers you can benefit from a light filled bathroom that will be timelessly styled for years to come. Our beautiful Vipari walk in showers are available from just £699 and include and slimline 50mm shower tray and two substantial 8mm glass screens!

As with your walls, light colours allow light to thrive and choosing any pristine white ceramics and gleaming chrome items from our online bathroom collection is the perfect solution. With opulent surface mounted basins from just £29, space saving wall mounted sinks from only £99 and stylish bathroom taps from an amazing £25, you can adorn you bathroom with designer panache without breaking the bank!

Bathroom Lighting

Friday, April 20th, 2007

Lighting can often be overlooked when a bathroom renovation is taking place, however it is one of the most important rooms in the home to illuminate correctly. After all, you start and end your day in the bathroom.

There are many different options when it comes to bathroom lighting, not just the usual ceiling light like in many homes. Location and the type of lighting come in many different combinations, allowing you to transform your bathroom into a mellow hideaway or invigorating wake up call at the flick of a switch.

You should make the most of any natural light that filters into your bathroom by removing any blinds or curtains. You can purchase ‘do-it-yourself’ window frosting kits which provide an economical way to making your bathroom private yet bright.

Dimmer switches can be the ideal way to utilise one light fitting as they can be turned on full in the mornings and dimmed to a relaxing glow for evening relaxation in the bath.

Bathroom mirrors are available in many different sizes at Victoriaplumb.com and your mirror should be lighted correctly to create the correct lighting around the face, many of our bathroom mirrors come with luxury light fittings so this is readily done for you.

Halogen lights can provide the perfect setting when you are unwinding in a walk in shower or roll top bath because they can be recessed into the ceiling and colour filters are available so you can change the mood at a touch of a button. Halogen lamps and lights can cost a few pounds more than standard bulbs but tend to last around three times longer.

European regulations regarding electric bathroom fittings are strict, therefore only a qualified electrician should fit any lights or electrical items into your bathroom. However, if done properly the possibilities of transforming your family bathroom, luxury en suite or shower area are endless.
