In the Choice article 5 biggest bathroom renovation rip-offs they recommend-:

"Plumbing and electrical works should be done by specialised professionals"

Consult an electrician well before you intend to start

It is very important to discuss lighting, ventilation, heating and appropriate placement of power points for ultimate usability.

"Too many people start their bathroom renovations and then cannot afford or haven't allowed sufficient funding for what they would like to achieve."

If you know the electrical details in advance, you can better plan and have a fantastic result.

There are so many options for bathrooms-:

• Heated towel rails
• Illuminated vanity cabinet mirrors (no shadows on your face when applying makeup or shaving)
• Correct colour lighting for true colour reflection
• Traditional heat lamps
• Modern heat lamps
• Infrared heating
• Presence detectors to turn on night lights for that late night dash to the loo
• Appropriate ventilation to reduce the amount of steam (and protect the paint from mould due to a build-up of moisture)
• Automatic operation of the basin water so you don't need to touch a tap
