4 Essential Bathroom Accessories You Should Consider
Bathroom accessories and appliances can make the difference between a hygienic and tidy bathroom and a cluttered and dirty space.
With a wealth of options on the market, it can be difficult to know what bathroom accessories and appliances you’ll get the most use out of and what will enhance your everyday life.
If you’re planning a bathroom renovation and are wondering what essential bathroom accessories and appliances to go for, we’re here to help.
Essential bathroom accessories and appliances include, but are not limited to:
Bathroom cabinets
Heated towel rail
Extractor fan
Shower shelves
1. Bathroom Cabinets
Essential bathroom accessories you will want to install during a bathroom renovation are bathroom cabinets.
Finding the perfect storage solution for your bathroom is essential to keep your products organised and your bathroom as clean as possible. Built-in storage can also make your small bathroom look bigger.

2. Heated Towel Rail
When renovating a bathroom, an essential appliance to invest in is a heated towel rail.
Heated towel rails are great for drying your bathroom towel once you’ve used it, keeping them dry between uses and reducing moisture within your bathroom.
Additional Benefits of Using Towel Rails
Heated towel rails also help to minimise the growth of bacteria that can occur if a damp towel is left to fester. In fact, one study found that heated towel racks reduced bacteria growth by 99%, emphasising how important it is to dry towels between uses.
With the help of a heated towel rack, then, you will not only promote better hygiene habits at home but will also be able to keep on top of the moisture levels within your bathroom.
3. Extractor Fan
The next essential bathroom appliance is an extractor fan to help keep moisture at bay.
Considering that ‘the bathroom is often the most humid room in the house, potentially causing mould and mildew to appear’, an extractor fan is essential to promote air circulation.
For some bathrooms that have a window that can be opened, an extractor fan is not a legal requirement. That said, installing an extractor fan in your bathroom design could prevent you from experiencing a wealth of issues down the line, from mould and mildew growth to bubbling paint.
The Importance of Extractor Fans for Health
More notably, an extractor fan is essential because inhaling or touching mould spores can affect your health, potentially causing ‘allergic reaction[s]...and asthma attacks’, emphasising just how important air ventilation in your bathroom is.
That said, opting for a high quality extractor fan is one of the best ways to help manage moisture in your bathroom, and it’s always best to discuss this appliance with your selected bathroom designer to figure out your options.
4. Shower Shelves
Last, but not least, essential bathroom accessories to install during your renovation is shower shelves.
Having products cover every surface of your bathroom is not only unhygienic but also ruins the look of your new bathroom renovation.
Shower shelves help to make your bathroom look more aesthetically pleasing. Keeping your shampoo, conditioner, cleansers, shower gels, and other products in one place with shower shelves helps to keep the design of your new bathroom renovation sleek and tidy, allowing you to get the most out of your investment.
Hopefully this article has given you a better idea of what essential bathroom accessories and appliances to opt for when you renovate a bathroom.
