A new bathroom design can take you to another dimension. It’s everybody’s
paradise, their home inside their home, which is normally why people take their
sweet time in the restroom. The problem with people relaxing in the restroom
and indulging in all the accessories imaginable is there usually someone else
waiting outside the facilities and needs to use it. Adding a second bathroom
seems like a long, arduous job but there are ways around that to make it
inexpensive and quick.
Save Money
Take the time out to plan your bathroom design. If something goes wrong, you do
not want to start the whole thing over again. The most cost-effective place for
your second bathroom to be is as close to your first restroom as possible. This
will help you save money on the pipe work.
Shower, bathtub, or toilet

Depending on your situation and needs, you could just add a toilet, or a
bathtub, or a shower stall separately. However if you add a full service
bathroom, it will increase the value of your home if you are an owner of
course.
Pipes
Set up your bathroom design by constructing your piping situation. If you do add
your second lavatory next to your first, you will be able to connect the pipes
together, which would save yourself a lot of money and you won’t have to tear
down any walls. First thing you must do is turn off your water.
Water
Once the water is off you can start connecting the pipes together. You’re going
to need to connect several different size lengths of pipes to connect both
bathrooms. In order to make sure those pipes are strong and stick together
you’re going to need caulk them. By caulking around all your pipe connections
you’ll greatly reduce any water leaks. Now you can start adding the toilet, the
sink, and the shower head. Of course you can get expensive with this step but a
regular toilet and a stainless steel sink should do the trick if you're not
high-maintenance.
Mold
There is one thing you can’t avoid when it comes to your bathroom, you must
clean it. There is no way around that. A good way to keep on top of the mold
and the germs is having an exhaust fan in your bathroom. Exhaust fans can pull
up the condensation and steam to help limit those germy friends we love to
avoid.
Bathroom Vanities
The rest is up to you to roam free and explore all your dreams. Add your tiles
that you want, any shelves. Now is the time to dream big thanks to your new
bathroom design.
