This is a small bathroom but it needed a complete overhaul to save it from 'just plain ugly' - a designer's nightmare. From the floors to the walls to the lighting, everything had to be done. I wanted to do it myself to save money on labor. This did not help me save time by any means.

First house. 1960 build. I have lots of things to fix or update. This bathroom feels like one of them. Isn't a bad idea to have wood exposed in a room subject to high humidity? How crazy of a rebuild is this i lf i wanted a painted room like more modern homes.

[https://www.thespruce.com/before-and-after-bathroom-remodels-4142138 by Lee Wallender 1/3/22 the spruce]
If you dream about swanky bathroom remodels that you find in the pages of magazines and home decor sites, turn that fantasy into reality. Most luxe "afters" had embarrassing "befores." If you have a dark, small, or boring bathroom, see how you can add light, color, or little touches that can turn your washroom into a refreshing spa retreat.
=====15 Common Bathroom Floor Plans=====
[https://www.thespruce.com/free-bathroom-floor-plans-1821397 by Lee Wallender 23/12/24 the spruce]
A well-designed bathroom layout requires rigorous spatial planning. For example, it would be very uncomfortable if your tub, toilet, and sink all ended up being too close together in a small space. Creating bathroom floor plans can help you anticipate these problems and adjust your design prior to any remodeling work taking place.
=====Remodel a Bathroom=====
[https://www.instructables.com/Remodel-a-bathroom/ by MrBippers AUTODESK Instructables]
When it comes to selling a home they say kitchens and bathrooms are not only the big sellers, but the places where you get the most for your investment. The house I bought had a rather large (5' x 10') and very bland half bathroom on the first floor. I decided to not only remodel it, but add a half bathroom in the process. I did everything myself, with the exception of the plumbing. I did however find a plumber who was willing to take the time to show me how everything was done.

[https://www.instructables.com/DIY-Bathroom-Remodel-How-to-Install-a-Toilet-Vanit/ by CraftedWorkshop AUTODESK Instructables]

[https://www.thespruce.com/5x8-bathroom-layout-tips-ideas-5213901 by Sarah Lyon 6/5/24 the spruce]
While 5 by 8 feet may seem like a small size for a well-designed bathroom layout, it's actually the most common floor plan that can still encompass a sink, a shower and tub, and a toilet. That said, the limited square footage does mean that those designing such a space from scratch may struggle with the layout as they look to squeeze a functional bathroom into a small floor plan.
=====How to Add a Bathroom=====
[https://home.howstuffworks.com/home-decor/bathroom/how-to-add-a-bathroom.htm by Sarah Fernandez howstuffworks]
The great thing about adding a bathroom to your home is that it doesn’t typically require a lot of space. At bare minimum, you’ll need about a three-foot by six-foot space to add a half bathroom. If you require a shower, it will need to be a bit larger, and for a full tub even bigger (about five-foot by eight-foot). You can always go bigger than that if you have the space, but remember that the bigger the bathroom, the bigger the price tag.
