Bathroom Renovations for Escaping Ottawa Winters

Bathroom Renovations Make The Perfect Retreat From Cold Weather

Ottawa winters can be very cold, but that doesn’t stop us from enjoying outdoor winter activities. After a day of skating on the Rideau Canal or visiting Winterlude, the best remedy for frozen limbs is a warm bath to relax your muscles and help your entire body warm up again. To avoid the chills this winter, consider these bathroom renovation ideas to turn your bathroom into the perfect retreat from the cold winter weather:

Heated Floors

Radiant floor heating makes a huge difference when you’re stepping out of the bath or shower. With heated floors, you no longer have to worry about getting cold from stepping on cold tiles.

Heated Towel Bars

Avoid the winter chill and wrap yourself in a warm towel after stepping out of the bath. Your body will be able stay warm and relaxed for longer while wrapped in a warm, cozy towel.

Heat-Retaining Bathtubs

Stay warm for longer in the bath with a heat-retaining bathtub. These bathtubs are often made from beautiful brass, copper, soapstone, or volcanic limestone, so it’s easy to find one to match your bathroom décor.

Spa Bathtubs

Spa bathtubs—also known as whirlpool tubs or Jacuzzi tubs—will give you a warm, relaxing spa retreat experience after a busy day at work or skating on the Canal.

Steam Showers

Steam showers often look like regular stand-up showers with glass doors, but they also have the option to fill the shower stall with a thick cloud of warm steam. Instead of installing an entirely new shower, you can have the steam option installed into your existing shower.

Fireplace

A fireplace will give your bathroom the warmth and luxurious feel of a winter retreat. Taking a bath can be even more relaxing with a fire going. Talk to your bathroom renovations experts in Ottawa about bathroom-safe fireplaces.

Warm Décor

Warm colours and accents will turn your bathroom into a sanctuary from the cold. Some warm design ideas to make your bathroom feel cozy include woods, yellow accents, patterns, and rich-coloured rugs. For a perfect bathroom retreat, consider wood décor that is reminiscent of a cabin or a ski chalet.

Heater

If these heating options don’t match your bathroom renovation budget, or don’t work for your needs, consider getting a bathroom-safe heater installed. A heater might be a simpler option, but can provide just that extra little bit of comfort when temperatures start to drop.

Contact the experts in bathroom renovations in Ottawa to discuss your options for warming up your bathroom this winter. Even the smallest step to help take the bite out of winter’s chill can make a big difference after a day skating on the Rideau Canal, after all!
