Painting your bathroom is a simple, inexpensive upgrade that can make you fall in love with your space all over again. As far as decorating jobs go, it falls on the easier end of the spectrum (depending on the size of your bathroom, you can be finished in half a day), but it’s also a room of the home that requires a little extra care and attention. That’s because there are a host of bathroom paint mistakes you want to avoid falling victim to, and some of them are more common than you think.
The truth is, your bathroom walls see a lot. By virtue of their being, these rooms are humid environments, so your paint job needs to withstand high moisture and temperatures. Daily condensation and the build up of grime and soap scum can shorten the lifespan of your paint job, plus you’ll need a durable paint finish to prevent the likes of peeling paint and mould growth.
