Ways to Add Extra Storage to Your Bathroom

There are plenty of low cost improvements you can do to your bathroom that will add functionality to your home, and even help with your home’s value. You can call on one of the experts from Handyman Connection of Blue Ash to look over your bathroom and make plenty of inexpensive suggestions on how a professional can improve your bathroom, and you can try some improvements of your own.

A good way to improve your bathroom’s functionality is to add extra storage space that will help to free up floor space. If you have a smaller bathroom, then finding creative storage solutions will help you to make more of the space you have.

Use The Door

There are products you can use to hang on your door that can make the back of your door a towel rack, or a place to hang bathing accessories. You could also install a small cabinet on the back of your door to create even more storage space. If you do put a cabinet on the back of your door, be sure it does not interfere with the ability of your door to easily open and close.

Try Recessed Shelving

Many people avoid putting shelves on their bathroom walls to make more storage space because they feel that the shelves will stick out and take up more room. If you have a professional from Handyman Connection of Blue Ash install recessed shelves or cabinets, then you get storage space without sacrificing any space at all.

Over The Tub And Under The Window

The two most neglected parts of a bathroom when it comes to storage space are over the tub and under the window. You can have a recessed cabinet installed over the tub and use it as a place to store bathtub items such as soap and shampoo. You can install towel racks under the window and have another place to dry towels.

Look Up

If you have a very small bathroom with a high ceiling, then you can install nets or other storage devices directly to your ceiling. You can install a series of small drop-down shelves in your ceiling that would be idea places to store toothpaste and other items that you and your family use every day.

Get A Bigger Medicine Cabinet

The chances are good that you have room on the wall over your bathroom sink to install a slightly bigger medicine cabinet. Even a small increase in medicine cabinet size can help to create some needed extra storage space.

Over Top Of The Door

If you have room between your bathroom ceiling and the top of your bathroom door frame, then you have space for extra storage. Put a shelf over your bathroom door and use it for everything from storing toilet paper, to a place to put clean towels for guests.

Crowd Your Toilet

If you have some room between your toilet and your bathroom wall, then you have space for a narrow cabinet to add storage. If there is nothing on the wall behind your toilet, then a set of shelves will help you to get the extra storage space you need.

You can find a professional organizer through Handyman Connection of Blue Ash who can help you to create a lot more storage space in your bathroom. If you want to make your bathroom more functional and avoid large remodeling bills, then it is time to start getting creative with your bathroom storage.
