//""There is no other living space that has all the open space one may wish, if you have a multi-story loft, the bathroom can go to the upstairs as well as the bedroom so the downstairs space is all at your command. bathrooms are one of the many forgotten areas of lofts but as with any home, they can be made to take on any look as you desire. It is also one area that can be a host for many hidden costs that may surface only upon renovation. The peeling wallpaper, uneven floors and the ever hiding dry rot which is always a pain. Much is common for experienced home owners though and the estimated cost is called “estimated” for good reason, you will surely get into trouble, how large may depend on the age of the loft.
There’s also another area you can improve on in a retro-fit job, replacing old wasteful fixtures with newer and more efficient ones. Water saving shower heads and toilets are just some of the green options, along with some power saving LED light fixtures that are beginning to filter down to consumer levels. One step ahead and you can add water recycling lavatories that stores used water for flushing your toilet . GFI outlets are a must for electrical safety, it has electronic sensors that checks for the balance of power coming out of the line cutting it off in milliseconds if any unbalance, which would be sure to be a sign of a grounding (an appliance falling into water that was not designed to handle wet conditions) saving you from a very powerful and life-threatening shock. As we can see, there are a lot of green and trendy looking stuff that can be done to a bathroom which of course is for you to decide on.
