Transform Your Bathroom Into a Space You’ll Love

If your bathroom feels outdated, cramped, or just frustrating to use, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to settle. Issues like poor lighting, lack of storage, or an awkward layout can make the space less functional and enjoyable. The good news? The right remodel can completely transform your bathroom into a place you love.


At Dave Davidson Remodeling, we help homeowners turn their bathrooms from “blah” to beautiful every day. With our expertise, you can create a space that’s stylish, functional, and tailored to your needs. Ready for a change? Here’s where to start.



Rethink Storage: From Cluttered to Clean

Newly remodeled bathroom. Tub to shower conversion.

One of the biggest pain points in most bathrooms? Not enough storage. Towels get piled up, counters overflow, and you’re left feeling like there’s just no room. But smart storage doesn’t require a huge space—just thoughtful planning.


We recommend built-in shelves, recessed niches in the shower, or even adding a vanity with deep drawers instead of shallow cabinets. Floating shelves can add style and function, and vertical storage (like tall cabinets) can give you back your floor space without sacrificing what you need.


Fresh Paint = Instant Mood Lift


Never underestimate what a coat of paint can do. If your bathroom still has beige or builder-grade tones, it might be time for an update. Lighter shades like soft gray, warm white, or cool blue can instantly make the room feel larger and fresher.


Want to make a statement? Consider a dark accent wall or a bold color like forest green or navy. And don’t forget paint with a satin or semi-gloss finish—these are moisture-resistant and hold up better in high-humidity spaces.


Tub vs. Walk-In Shower: What Works Best?


Here’s one of the biggest decisions in a bathroom remodel: Should you keep the tub or swap it for a walk-in shower? The answer depends on your lifestyle, space, and goals. If you love long, relaxing baths or have young children who need a tub, keeping it might be the better choice.


On the other hand, if you’re looking for a sleek, modern bathroom or need easier accessibility, a walk-in shower could be the way to go. Consider how you use your bathroom daily, your future needs, and even how this decision might impact your home’s resale value. Both options have their benefits, so it’s all about finding what works best for you.


Walk-in showers with frameless glass and built-in seating are increasingly popular, especially for aging in place or creating a spa-like feel.


Don’t Overlook Lighting


Bad lighting can make even a clean bathroom feel dingy. If your current setup involves one overhead light and that’s it, it’s time to upgrade.


Layered lighting is key:

  • Add task lighting around mirrors (like sconces) to make grooming easier.
  • Install dimmable overhead lights for flexibility.
  • Consider accent lighting under vanities or inside niches for a modern touch.


Bright, natural-looking light will make your bathroom feel clean, calm, and more inviting.
