Like any home improvement project, remodeling your bathroom usually starts when you see something new. Maybe you’ve watched a home improvement show on HGTV. Or you’ve looked through the latest edition of Better Homes & Gardens. And there you see it; the perfect bathroom.

Except what you see in the magazines or on TV isn’t what you’ll find for your own bathroom. Instead, when you walk into a tile showroom, the first thing you usually feel is overwhelm.

With so many styles, colors, options, materials and finishes, where will you begin?

Before you start your project, take a step back and start your planning process. What motivated you to want to redo your bathroom in the first place? What images or samples spoke to you? Do they fit within your current home décor?

There are many options available; some will be more traditional, some will help you keep historic perspective, some are sleep and modern. While they all look good on their own, if you begin combining looks in your own bathroom, things will quickly look out of place.

Create a portfolio of colors and styles you like. Print images from online, or cut pages from magazines and include them in your file. Then take pictures and draw out the thoughts for your new space. Will you keep the structure the same, or will you be moving things around and changing things up? Have you always dreamed of a steam shower, and now is your time to add one to the master bath? Whatever your dreams, make sure you include them in your concepts.

Then determine where you will include your new tile. Bathroom tile is usually in one of three places: the floor, the walls, and the counters. If you will be tiling walls, its usually at a wainscot height of 36 to 42 inches tall, shower height, or floor to ceiling. Take full measurements so you know how much tiling will be required in each area. This will also help when choosing tile, as patterned

Tiling doesn’t have to be the same in every location. However, it does have to match and blend. And if you are tiling the wall, it has to match and blend in with your fixtures as well. For instance, in the shower, fixtures should be centered within the tile layout for optimum effect.
