Welcome to the Bathrooms Design Ideas web site your guide to designing, and remodeling a bathroom. In this economy more home owners are going DIY and electing to do some, or even all of their own remodeling to save money. I started this guide with just that type of person in mind. Willingness to create a design, and get ones hands dirty making it happen are truly admirable qualities.

This bathroom guide will cover the different design aspects of a bathroom including showers, tubs, vanities, tile, plumbing fixtures, and lighting fixtures. The installation guides go into shower valves, toilets, vanities, tubs, and tile.

Before starting on a bathroom design plan it's a good idea to do a budget on the spending limits of each of the different bathroom remodel categories. After the budget start laying out a detailed design plan on paper. The Bathroom Picture Gallery is a great place to start with a little inspiration through pictures of beautiful bathrooms, and visit the Bathroom Design Guidelines page for advise on laying out a design plan.

The Design Category pages begin with the Tile Design Ideas page. Next in the design help categories are  Shower Ideas Plumbing Fixtures, and Frame-less Shower Glass. Visit the Bathtub page for bathtub design ideas, and best types of bathtub. The  Best Toilets page  has toilet design ideas, and lots of pictures. The Vanities Ideas page will go into the different styles of vanities, and show design pictures of the different styles. The last design articles are about the different types of Bathroom Lighting, and the different styles of vanity Sink and Faucet Ideas.

The Installation Category pages start with the Shower Valve Install article. The next installation guides include the Toilet Install, The Vanity install, The Tub Install, and lastly the How to Install bathroom Tile Guide.

For more information that is not found in the main articles visit the Bathroom Blog for the smaller topics. For more information on tile design visit the web site Tile Design Ideas.

Bathrooms are the most common remodel in the current economic down turn because kitchens and additions are a much larger commitment. This Bathrooms Design Ideas web site is meant to help the do it yourself-er with some general information. It is recommended to hire a licensed plumber for the rough plumbing, and a licensed electrician for the rough electrical. Always check local building codes, and get a permit before starting a project.
