  • Bathroom Remodel: Find the Perfect Spot for the Toilet

    Finding the right location for a toilet in a bathroom remodel may seem like a trivial matter but placing it in the wrong spot could cause annoyance in the future. Here are a few things to consider when finding the perfect spot for your toilet:

    Privacy – For partners who share a bathroom but don’t want to share everything, consider locating the toilet in a private nook or separate space with a door. The bathroom can then be used simultaneously and with modesty.
