FAMILY BATHROOM IDEAS


Designing a bathroom to suit every member of the family can be a challenging task, as can future proofing it as they all grow. That is why we are sharing our top tips to help you create the perfect family bathroom to enjoy now and for years to come. 

A BATH OR SHOWER?
OR BOTH?



Your space and layout will be an important deciding factor when making your bathroom choices. We know having a soak in the bathtub is a firm family favourite and if you have the space; a separate bath and shower would be the preferred option. 

If you are working with a smaller space, our bath filler wastes are a great option for freeing up surface space, as well as no more ‘who sits at the tap end’ arguments!  Bath filler wastes can be controlled by a thermostatic shower valve, allowing you to install a shower head over the bath for ultimate flexibility and versatility. Alternatively, our shower column kits are a brilliant addition for those wanting to install a shower over a bath. 

To find the perfect shower or bath filling option for your bathroom, browse our wide range of thermostatic showering and bathing products, in a variety of styles and designs to suit your family’s needs.


STORAGE, STORAGE... AND MORE STORAGE!


We all dream of a clutter free bathroom, however, with a family that is not always possible. Therefore, having plenty of bathroom storage is essential for toiletries as well as additional bath toys, towels and daily essentials. 
​​​​​​​
Under sink bathroom cabinets or mirrored wall hung units are popular storage options for the bathroom, their dual function maximises room without taking up any extra floor or wall space with additional bathroom furniture. 

Recessed or alcove shelving in your shower cubicle is a clever option for storing away shampoo and shower gel bottles. Bathroom shelves of this type can also act as a design feature by styling them with contrasting-coloured tiles. 

However, if you are looking for in-shower storage that doesn’t require building or remodelling work, browse our range of VADO bathroom accessories including a variety of wall mounted shelves and baskets.

DOUBLE UP



If you have the room, we recommend opting for double basin vanity unit as these allow the bathroom to be used by more than one person at one time. They can also help to organise toiletries between children and adults by utilising the additional storage space underneath - a clever storage solution and eliminator of morning rush arguments in one!  

CHILD-FRIENDLY TAPWARE


If you are sharing a bathroom with young children, it may be useful to consider installing taps that make it easier for little hands to turn on and off. For instance, bathroom taps with lever handles will make it easier for children to operate.

To ensure the safety of all members of the family using the bathroom, we recommend showering and filling a bathtub with a thermostatic valve; this will allow you to set the water to your desired temperature and eliminates the risk of temperature fluctuations, scalding and burns.   

TILING AND FLOORING



When choosing bathroom tiles, we recommend something that is durable and easy to clean when sharing the space with a family. Large, minimalistic tiles not only increase the perception of space, they also require less grout; compared to metro style tiles that are more intricate in detail, resulting in more grout to scrub clean!

The Melford Marble collection by Johnson Tiles is a perfect balance of minimalism with interest, thanks to its the subtle marble design. Larger tiles are available in square and rectangular shapes to suit different design schemes and bathroom layouts.

Flooring for a family bathroom needs to be durable and safe for all users; therefore shiny, slippery tiles are not the most appropriate for small children or elderly family members. A wooden effect flooring will offer some slip resistance to avoid any accidents, as well as a neutral stylish design to suit many different bathroom interiors. Rubber and vinyl floorings are also very durable and will withstand frequent splashes of water, an essential with young children.
