Your current bathroom doesn't have any windows. While the lack of this feature may not appear bothersome, there are actually benefits in having windows placed in this private area. Whether you originally designed your home without bathroom windows yourself or you bought your house this way, a rest area lacking windows can be dreary, outdated and not as enjoyable as it should be.

Windowless Bathroom Upgrade
Your current bathroom doesn't have any windows. While the lack of this feature may not appear bothersome, there are actually benefits in having windows placed in this private area. Whether you originally designed your home without bathroom windows yourself or you bought your house this way, a rest area lacking windows can be dreary, outdated and not as enjoyable as it should be.
Installing a window in your bathroom can really enliven the space and make it even more intimate and welcoming. Here are five reasons to install a window in your bathroom.

1. Windows Make Your Bathroom Appear Larger

Windows add dimension to your home's bathroom, giving it the appearance of being larger in size. The natural light that comes in from a bathroom window also makes smaller spaces appear brighter and more inviting.
If you are worried about privacy when installing a window in your bathroom, don't be. You can have your bathroom windows installed with frosted, beveled or even stained glass so you can enjoy the natural lighting from the outdoors without the worry of people being able to look inside.

2. Windows Update Your Bathroom

A simple window installation is a great way to give your bathroom a quick upgrade. The average cost for a bathroom window is between $489 and $784, making it an incredibly cost-effective remodeling project.
Your glass contractor can help you choose the best location for your bathroom's window and the best glass for the space. If you have bathroom remodeling ideas to consider, show them to your glass contractor so they can best help you choose the best window design for your needs.

3. Windows Offer Natural Ventilation

Few things are more irritating than getting out of the shower and being engulfed in steamy fog. While you may have a fan in your bathroom to help manage moisture from showering or bathing, a fan alone is often not enough ventilation to keep your bathroom free of wetness.
It's important to keep your walls and floors free of moisture since water droplets not only create a falling hazard, they also create a moist environment for mold and mildew to thrive in. Installing a working window in your bathroom can help eliminate moisture concerns in the home so you can better enjoy the space.

4. Windows Are Versatile

If you're not feeling a classic window in your bathroom, consider installing French windows for a unique appeal and added privacy you can control. You can also think entirely out of the box and place a skylight in your bathroom instead of a classic window.
A skylight not only allows you to have additional privacy by blocking the views of passersby, it also showers light from above to give your bathroom a truly modern and fun appeal.

5. Windows Add Dimension

If your bathroom is on the small side or doesn't have a lot of unique space, a window can add the dimension you need for the room. A window style to consider for dimensional purposes is a French window that has multiple panes or a stained glass window for a whimsical appeal.
You can also make your bathroom appear larger and give it tremendous dimension by installing a bay window. A bay window is a window that extends beyond your home's structure to create a comfortable nook. In bathrooms, bay windows are most often placed around tubs for a window-filled view that adds a modern and luxurious appeal.
Your bathroom deserves windows, both to modernize the space and to make it more inviting. Installing windows can make a huge difference in the appeal of your bathroom. Our glass experts at Nevada Glass Service are happy to assist you in choosing the best windows for your home project.
