Updating Your Bathroom
Make Your Bathroom Worthy of Its Throne
Bathroom Fans
Improving your bathroom ventilation in a guaranteed way to prevent damage due to moisture and mold. In older homes, it's common for old exhaust fans to either not operate properly or simply lack the ability to clear out moisture effectively. Upgrading to a new exhaust fan is an effective value-add in any home.
New exhaust fans run quieter and have selectable CFM's which allow you to select the level of air flow. In addition, modern exhaust fans can be installed with add-on features such as occupancy sensors, humidistats, and timer settings. For bathrooms with a lot of activity or even a rental property, these are great features to ensure moist air is consistently being cleared from the space.
If you are considering replacing or adding new exhaust fans in your home, the next best step is to reach out to Valkyrie Electric to let us determine the most suitable option for your bathroom.
Bathroom Lighting
Bathrooms are the most multipurpose room in a home. Given the amount of time that's spent in there... we think that time should be enjoyed. Striking the right balance between functional light and ambient light will give the space more dimension, interest, and dare I say... look good naked vibes?
Swapping out mismatched light fixtures or old vanity lights is a great starting point, but don't stop there! Consider dimmable recessed lighting and undercabinet lighting to add a little sophistication. Other extras can include light up LED mirrors for the perfect makeup zone, or hanging pendant lights and wall sconces. Puck lighting can be installed in dark closets or floating shelves to really highlight cabinetry.
If you're looking for some high end touches in your bathroom, the next best step is to set up an in-home consultation where we can discuss lighting options for every budget.
Bathroom Receptacles
Constantly unplugging appliances to work around a limited number of receptacles is, quite simply, annoying. In older homes it's common for there to be a single bathroom receptacle or none at all. Adding or updating receptacles in a bathroom is a common service we provide for our customers. Adding 'his and hers' receptacles keeps appliance cords from crossing over sinks. Replacing outdated razor plugs or off-coloured devices with new white devices is an affordable way to modernize outdated receptacles.
A service that's becoming increasingly popular is adding receptacles for bidet toilets. Most bidets have limited power requirements, making them a great add-on to any bathroom update.
