How should I redo my bathroom? I'm 15 and a sophomore in high school. I love making my rooms look really unique. For my bedroom i painted it a really dark blue and got my really close friend to take paint markers and write me messages all over my room. Then we took white,orange,and gray paint and brushed it on our hands and put our hand prints all over the wall. I'm looking to do something similar to my bathroom. I don't want the whole hand prints thing again but something totally off the wall but still cool. Anyone got any ideas?

Why is my bathroom ceiling and cornice paint cracking? We have painted our bathroom ceiling and the cornices in our spare room with matt emulsion (water based) paint and within a day the pain began to crack badly. The cornice is mostly cracking where the old pain had cracked off and left the cornice exposed. The bathroom ceiling is newly re-plastered and we painted with a 50/50 paint/water mix first then two coats. Yet, we also painted the bathroom and bedroom *walls* with this paint, both newly re-plastered, and they DIDNT crack. What should we do? OK, thanks for the cause but what about the solution? sand and re-paint? new type of paint?
When painting a bathroom, do you have to use a special paint to withstand heat and humidity? I am going to be painting my bathroom this weekend. I was wondering if I can use the regular matte finish in there or do I have to get a little gloss so it can stand the heat. I never close my bathroom door because it's inside my bedroom so I just close my bedroom door. It never gets THAT steamy in the bathroom because of that. I am just wondering though. Also, do you think it's nice to also paint the ceiling the same color as the walls? Or should I leave it white? I am doing a light pinkish color.
what are the best materials for a public bathroom? im thinking of a public bathroom which is near the seashore so its prone to rusting because of the sea breeze. it also needs lots of maintenance because a lot of people is going to use it. i have no idea what materials are best for making a public bathroom near the sea. do you know any sites that offer good ideas for a bathroom? sites that design bathroom for a beach resort or something. i was thinking of using plastic doors or something so it won't rust. the one i used were wooden doors and steel locks so now the doors are rotten, the locks doesn't lock anymore because of the rust. though there are lights, it's pretty dark and creepy at night. i want a well lit bathroom. please. any sites that has detail on constructing a bathroom would be very helpful.
How to make my bathroom warmer? I really need help. My bathroom is cold, everytime when I go in to have a shower, facial, it's torture. How to make my bathroom warmer? *I cannot turn the central heat hotter. I cannot stand the heat and the dryness. I have allergy. *I cannot bring a portable heater into the bathroom, it will cause electric shock and kill me ><! (and my bathroom is quite small, cannot fit in any big things, very tiny table) *My bathroom got a window, we close during the long winter. what else can I do to make my bathroom warmer? Is there some kind of light bulb that will make the bathroom warmer? is it sunlight bulb? Will the sunlight bulb give me a sun tan, I don't want sun tan. Any special light bulb that will produce heat, but not give sun tan? The place where we place the bulb are very close to the wall(it's not on the celling,it's on the side wall like this @=+=@ )2 light bulb @ @ if I put the hot bulb near, will it do some damage to the wall?

What is causing my bathroom vanity lights and fan not to work? In my master bathroom (attached to master bedroom) I have vanity lights (only lighting in the bathroom), a fan, and one outlet. The fan and the vanity lights are separate units. Last night, there was a thunderstorm and lightning, but given the circumstances, I don't think it's causing my problem. Last night, I turned off my lights and fan, and when I attempted to turn them on again, they did not work. The outlet, which I believe would be connected to the same power source as the lights and fan, does work. I attempted to switch all the circuit breakers on and off to no avail. FYI the circuit breaker is for the entire master bedroom, or at least labeled as so; so I would assume it encompasses the master bathroom as well. My guess would be it should be related to the switch, since it is related only to the lights and fan, and not the sole outlet. Can anybody else think of any other possibilities or suggestions what to do?
For a bathroom renovation, in what order should I do the projects.? I will be renovating my bathroom soon.

I've done all these things (tile, linoleum) before and I am comfortable with it, but I've never done them all together as one complete project. Do you have any suggestions as to where to start and what order to do these things in. Any other advice would be appreciated as well.

So: this is for all the realtors out there: What are the requirements for the listing size of bathrooms?

Thanks!

What bathroom cleaning products are safe for acrylic? My landlord just had the "Bathroom Fitter" people come in and re-do our tub/tub walls with an all-one-piece acrylic wall and tub thing-a-majig. Anyway, on my old regular tile/grout walls I used to use Comet, Tylex and Clorox Cleanup to get it clean and kill any mold, but now I don't know what to use. I don't want to ruin the finish. The paperwork says to make sure you use a product that is safe for acrylic, but I was checking out some of the labels in the store today and hardly any of them specify whether or not they're safe for acrylic. Help!

How do I stop a drippy bathroom exhaust fan? The exhaust fan in my bathroom drips onto the bathroom floor constantly during the winter. I have had a new roof turban installed where it vents thinking it would solve the problem by allowing the condensation to vent up through the roof, but it continues to drip down through the exhaust fan and into my bathroom. It drips whether the fan is running or not running. It's very annoying as the fan is located in the ceiling in front of my sink and I can't stand there without getting water dripped down my back, not to mention the mess it makes on the floor and my rugs. Any suggestions?
What bathroom cleaning spray has no or little odor? And isn't overly harmful when slightly breathed in (accidentally, that is)? My bathroom location has little to no ventilation, and Fantastik or bleach sprays are simply intolerable during cleaning, and they leave a horrible gaseous smell for two hours afterward. I've tried Comet in a bucket with a rag or sponge, but it takes too long to clean a toilet with that, it seems; I'd rather have a (germicide) spray. Thanks for the answers.
What color for my bathroom with forest green faux marble countertop?

I'm putting a bathroom in the basement. Can I have the main electrical panel (circuit breakers) in it? Let me clarify- I am finishing my basement and drawing up plans. I plan to get it permitted. Unfortunately, the only place a bathroom would work happens to be in the area of the main electrical panel. If I enclose it in a closet accessible from outside the bathroom, it makes the bathroom too small. Is it possible to have the electric panel in the bathroom in an enclosed cabinet of some sort? (The bathroom will have a shower, so I don't know if moisture will be a problem). Suggestions would be much appreciated. My county adheres to the national building code, 2003 edition.

Renovating small house for resale and need an opinion on bathroom vs. bigger kitchen? We have just bought a small (480 sq ft) small house with no basement to renovate and resell. It has one bedroom, small living room and very small kitchen and even smaller bathroom. The lot is big so we have already dug a hole, poured foundation and are planning on moving the house on top of the new foundation. So, the basement will have 2 bedrooms, full bathroom, laundry room and the mainfloor bedroom will be opened up to make a bigger living room. Ok...here comes the question...would you take the bathroom out on the mainfloor and open the kitchen or would you take the tub out (it's only a 4 ft long old tub) and keep a bathroom upstairs and keep the small kitchen? I think bigger kitchen no bathroom and my husband thinks the opposite. Please let me know your opinion.

What preparation to use on plywood in bathroom before putting tiles down? I have 18mm plywood flooring (just laid) in my bathroom. I was wondering if I need to do anything to the plywood before I stick my tiles down on to it? Some more information.... The plywood is WBP. It is brand new and laid direct to the joists (not on top of other boards or flooring). I am concerned about whacking down cement based board on top of the plywood for the reasons cited by one of the answers given earlier (adding too much extra height to the floor level. The way I see it I doubt if the the addition of cement board is going to reduce any chance of flex or movement of the floor so this is only really adding a nice substrate for tile adhesion purposes. Assuming I make sure the plywood-only floor is absolutely solid with no chance of any flex then I guess I just need to make sure that the wood is sealed from moisture and has a decent surface finish that the tiles will adhere well to. That's all fine but I am still not sure exactly what product to paint all over the plywood to do the above jobs?

How to stay "pretty" during a loooooong flight.? I will be flying to Japan this fall. It's about a 22 hour flight.

I never have break outs unless I'm on an airplane. It's so gross!
How do I detect a leak in my bathroom drain? I live in a house on the ground on concrete slab. My bathroom has a rotten egg smell.

How do I get my lab mix (4 yrs old) to stop going the bathroom in her kennel? Our dog has recently started coming in our house at night and when she's in she sleeps in a kennel (about 4ft long, 3 ft wide, 3ft tall). We take her outside every couple hours or so until we go to bed (around 11pm) and then I take her out first thing in the morning (5am or so). In that time though, it almost never fails, she goes the bathroom in her kennel. I thought dogs instinctively don't go the bathroom where they sleep...is that incorrect? If it's true, why would she be doing this? How do we get her to stop? Any help would be greatly appreciated! She's traditionally an outdoor dog (has a run outside with access to an insulated doghouse that goes into our garage) but outside she has an area she uses to go the bathroom (never in her dog house). I just don't understand why she's doing this inside.

I love them although I don't want them all over my house, but my boyfriend is terrified of them and at this moment is hoovering them up because I refuse to kill them. Any ideas on how to get rid of them?
