Helping You Measure Your Bathroom Fixtures

Maya’s Design Studio is thrilled to announce a collaboration with Bathtubber.com, a website that focuses on all things bathroom remodeling and design. Owner Shana Burg interviewed me and featured photos of my work in her new series on measuring fixtures for the bathroom. Shana told me, “Readers at Bathtubber.com always want tips on how to measure correctly for bathroom fixtures like tubs, toilets, and showers. That’s why we spent months working on a series of posts to help them out. We chose to showcase photos of bathroom remodels from Maya’s Design Studio, because we know when it comes to measurements, Maya’s Design Studio always gets it right.”As I told Shana, if you’re replacing one bathroom fixture, such as a toilet or a tub, you’re probably going to measure yourself. In that case, it’s important to know exactly how to measure that one product. However, if you’re doing a whole bathroom remodel, then you’re really better off getting a contractor to ensure all the measurements are exactly right. It’s critical to get the placement and spacing around your fixtures correct, in order to prevent awkward movement in the bathroom. By correctly positioning bathroom fixtures you can optimize the space available and even make a small bathroom feel bigger than it actually is. After all, a bathroom remodels can be an investment in your own happiness in your home and can also increase your home’s value if you’re looking to sell.However, if you’re planning to do the measurements yourself, you’ll definitely want to check out the Bathtubber.com series called How To Measure EVERYTHING For Your Bathroom such as Tubs, Vanities, Toilets & More. You’ll get exact instructions for how to measure all bathroom fixtures. This series will show you exactly how to:
