    The bathroom is a part of your life where you forget the world and are on your own. It is a cocoon of sorts, where you feel safe. That justifies bathroom singing. So the place where you are totally yourself no inhibitions and complete freedom, such a place should be fun to be in. So decorating it in whatever way one can is very essential. A mix and match of colors can do wonders. Using different styles and types of tiles will make the bathroom interiors look richer and beautiful. The yellow green white trilogy and the aqua colors teamed up with white are huge hits.

There colors make you feel fresh and happy. Yellow is the color of activity and energy when teamed up with green gives vitality to the aura.

    An aqua theme to a bathroom is highly popular and a slight texture to the tiles is an added advantage. Also a patterns rather than the normal plain tiles are very much in. A translucent blue tinted glass basin is just the perfect bathroom accessories one would want.  Textured tiles placed in uneven pattern with the plain tiles creat style statement. The blue color has a tendency to sooth the nerves of human mind and body thus making you feel relaxed. Shades of blue teamed up with white strike a perfect balance to create calm, quite and depth. So bathroom becomes a place where one can relax and retrospect.

    Water is one of the most essential requirements, and these days there is a lot of water scarcity. So whenever you find water being wasted try to stop it by all means. If there is leakage in your bathroom or bath taps don’t think that it’s a very little amount of water wasted. Put a bucket under it and it will fill overnight. Learn to do the small things like fixing a faucet yourself. It’s not as hard as u think it is.The first step to start any kind of plumbing job is to shut off the water line and also the heater lines.Then you can start. Almost all taps have the same kind of mechanism. Once you do it yourself it will be easy for you.
     
    remove flap

    un screw

    In these types of taps you will be able to remove the upper lid by flip of the screw driver. See the image for guidance.Then you will see a screw inside, remove it.

    remove handle

    When you remove the screw the handles will be easy to remove. Just pull them off.
     
    fitting ring

    Now you will see a fitting that holds the handle, remove this fitting with a wrench. There will be another such fitting; this also has to be removed. Now you will know where the leak is occurring.

    remove ring
     
    These are a bit hard to remove so be care full. If your taps are too old and rusted then you might need to replace them.

    remove another

    Or else replacing the seal will work. If the seal is too worn out then it allows water to pass through.

    replace seals

    So replacing it will stop the leakage.Now fix everything back and replace the upper lid and it is done.
