Important tips to guide your renovation

Prevent mould growth and unpleasant odours with the use of exhaust fans or windows to circulate the air in the bathroom.

Apart from ambient lighting, be sure to cater ample lighting throughout the space to ensure visibility and functionality.

Ensure that materials used in the wet area and vanity are not prone to water damage and are easy to clean.

New BTO flats come complete with wall and floor finishing that have waterproofing membranes laid between the cement screed and floor tiles, which will become void if you remove it.

Make sure that your water heater and fittings are planned at the right locations and are of the correct dimensions.

Set a dedicated power point and use a heater switch, instead of a 3-pin socket, to ensure that power does not trip at home.

Make sure that the water inlet and outlet are connected correctly for your water heater, otherwise its heating function will not be able to operate properly.
