Bathrooms Design Dilemma

Bathroom ceiling - help!

Cassie Masterton

I recently renovated my bathroom (a fee bits and bobs to complete still) and have been left with ugly gap on the cieling where cornice used to be. Should I replace with more cornice? Would this look weird with the tiles to the ceiling? If not, what should I cover it with? Any suggestions welcome!

I wouldn’t cornice but patch in the gap with filler and paint.

For the time being (and this IS only a temporary fix) try using a water based penetrating sealer on the grout. I stress water based, because solvent based sealers today are made to be "breatheable", meaning they allow moisture to transmit back and forth, while the water based sealers will repel water. You still need to address this in a more permanent manner (the glass door is a good idea, but it wouldn't hurt to remove the bathroom floor tile, waterproof the floor, and install a new tile floor), but this will help until you can afford to do what you need to do.

Thank you, Stan, for your advice. I was contemplating putting a similar light like yours above the cabinet, but decided I prefer lights on either side, as there is a lot of space which I'd like to fill a little. I will also put them on top of tiles, so another point to consider. The ones I had chosen only protrude 90 mm from the wall, so I wonder if they should protrude at least the same as the cabinet, which is 150 mm, to illuminate the face, when putting on make up or in general. Here is a picture of the lights I really liked...and another one in a room situation ( not my bathroom), but they are next to a mirror with minimal depth. I like them a lot, but am open to other options, just wondered about projection.

It small But your cabin sink unit is a good idea as you have storage space and it looks neat. I have changed my bath many times to shower unit and it has leaked every time, some times it has been the plumbers fault or bad design then it was a visitor who let the water spill while showering the last time it flooded the insurers wanted the bathroom TANKED! meaning waterproof walls and floors. This is done by an experienced plumber contractor of repute! as the insurers said too many claims from too many people with bad waterproofing. the insurer said they would not insure again or any other clients who had not got their bathroom water proofed by expert plumber fitters. SO I have gone back to the Bath with a shower enclosed and found it tops for waterproof.

Tile the Walls and Floor in a bright color, eg white,light grey or cream as to make the illusion of the room being bigger.

I agree, it needs patching up. Should have been done before tiling really.

Thanks all for the suggestions. I think pvc cornice might be the best idea. The gap is too deep I think for tape and filler and might be more hassle than its worth.
