Avoid Spacing Your Fixtures Too Close To One Another

It is crucial to measure all fixtures out to the proper height and spacing measurement. Everything may look like it fits perfectly in your space but it is important to test out every area to make sure you have enough space to move around comfortably. Testing out each space before installation will allow you to troubleshoot any spacing issues. You want to avoid having your toilet too close to the door so when you sit down your knees don’t touch the door. You also want to avoid being too close to your sink or bathtub.

Spatial issues occur all too often in bathroom remodels. To avoid this make sure you also consider not spacing things out too far away from each other. You want to create a comfortable flow throughout your bathroom. Having to walk all the way across your bathroom to dry your hands will become very agitating when you are dripping water all over your bathroom to dry your hands.
