A bathroom can look perfect after renovation and still have a problem: it stays damp. Without proper ventilation, steam builds up, mirrors fog, and mold begins to grow around the ceiling and grout lines. Within months, the “new bathroom look” starts fading.
During renovation, plan for either a window that actually opens or an exhaust fan that vents outside. This keeps the bathroom dry after showers and protects paint, wood cabinets, and ceilings from moisture damage. Many people only think about tiles and forget air movement — then later spend more money on cleaning and repainting.
