There are a lot of places you can put new windows when you are working on San Jose, CA window replacement in the rest of your house. It’s the perfect time to make changes to style, color, and even add new windows. There are lots of rooms in your house and you’ll want to move through each of them and make the right decisions for them in turn. When it comes to the bathroom, you might want to add windows, but where should they go? Here are a few ideas to help you figure out what direction to take in this space.
A Skylight
Bathrooms are one room of the house that demand privacy. You might worry about putting a window in and then sacrificing that privacy. What good will a window do if you have to cover it with a window treatment anyway? Consider a skylight. You don’t have to give up any wall space and you can get the natural light you want in the space. Many skylights don’t open so you may not be able to ventilate, but you can get natural lighting and make the space look larger.
High Above The Tub
You can also place windows in areas that are high so they won’t let prying eyes in, but they will let in natural light and give you the ability to ventilate if you wish. Many homeowners like to put sliding windows high on the wall above their tubs. They get the natural light right there in that space and can perhaps even see outside. They can also ventilate, but they have the privacy they need at the same time.
Behind/Beside The Toilet
One area of the room that needs fresh air is around the toilet. You could place a window behind or beside that fixture, but you want to keep privacy in mind. Consider windows with frosted or etched glass so you get some light into the room, but no one can really see in. You can then open the window when needed and enjoy the light all the time.
In The Current Location
If you already have a window in the bathroom, perhaps you just need to replace it with a new window. Consider different styles if you don’t love what you have now. You could also think about making it larger or doing other things to enhance the space while you are making changes.
