Your bathroom isn’t just plumbing—it’s a daily reset. At Grand Renovations, we build spaces that look sharp, work hard, and lift property value. A well-planned bathroom remodel typically returns 60–67% of costs, and smart design pays you back every single day.
Whether you’re planning a full build-out or targeted upgrades, the wins come from balancing form and function and squeezing value out of every square foot—especially for condo renovation in Vancouver.
Expert Bathroom Layout Planning for Vancouver Homes
Start with real usage: who uses the space, when, and how. Decide on a tub, walk-in shower, or both. For shared baths, double vanities reduce AM traffic; for smaller rooms, a single vanity with optimized storage often performs better. We design by NKBA clearances for safety and flow and factor in strata rules and Vancouver’s damp climate. View our approach to bathroom renovation in Vancouver.

Storage That Works in Vancouver Condos
Go vertical with floor-to-ceiling cabinetry. Use built-in niches, drawer organizers, and wall-mounted medicine cabinets to keep counters clean. Floating vanities free floor area and simplify maintenance.
Materials Built for Vancouver Weather
Moisture resistance is non-negotiable. Porcelain/ceramic tile for floors and walls, properly sealed stone for wow-factor accents, and wood-look luxury vinyl where warmth matters. Frameless glass keeps light moving and makes tight rooms feel bigger.
Color & Style
Ocean blues and greens for calm; warm neutrals for timelessness; crisp whites to open up smaller rooms. Add personality with geometric tile on one feature wall or a patterned floor. Pastels shine in powder rooms.
Lighting & Ventilation
Layer it: ambient + task + accent. Think pendants, back-lit mirrors, and niche LEDs. Ventilation must be sized and ducted correctly to prevent mold—critical in our climate.
Small Bathroom Playbook
Wall-hung toilets, corner showers with angled glass, pocket/barn doors, and light palettes. Large mirrors and continuous floor tile visually expand the room.
High-Impact Luxury (Without Wasting Budget)
Freestanding soakers, multi-head/steam showers, heated floors, towel warmers, and custom millwork. Choose two or three hero features; execute them perfectly.
Budget-Smart Refreshes
Swap hardware and faucets, update lighting, repaint, and replace mirrors. Use peel-and-stick accents only as temporary style—not structural fixes.
Eco Moves That Matter
Low-flow fixtures, Energy Star fans/lighting, sustainably sourced surfaces (bamboo, reclaimed wood, recycled glass), and live plants for air quality.
Bottom Line
Great bathroom design = daily usability + long-term durability + your taste. Done right, it’s a lifestyle upgrade and a balance-sheet win. If you want a contractor who brings design rigour, clean execution, and predictable timelines, talk to Grand Renovations.
