Remodeling your bathroom can bring many benefits to your home, here on some tips on how to effectively remodel the room.
Remodeling the bathroom in your home is an easy way to increase the value of your home. Even if you’re not thinking of selling your home anytime soon, bathroom remodels can go a long way to improving satisfaction with your home as well as making you and your family more comfortable. Anytime you’re thinking of a remodel, it can definitely be intimidating, but with these tips for your consideration, you’ll see it will be a worthwhile venture.
Set a Time Frame
Are you having a huge party with friends and family for whom you’d like your bathroom to be done? Are you expecting? Do you need to sell your home? Setting a time frame a few weeks or months ahead of time can help when you’re thinking of exactly what needs to be done. A time frame will also help you prioritize what you could DIY and when you need a contractor.
Make a List of Changes you Want to See
Do you hate every part of your bathroom? Start making a list! There are a lot of exciting new trends to look at and so many ways to customize your bathroom space. Your list could contain new tiling, lighting, fixtures, cabinets, or even moving walls, or changing your tub to a stand-alone shower. This will also help with your budget.
Set a Budget
Now that you know how long it’s going to take and exactly what you’re going to do in your remodel, set a budget. A strict budget isn’t necessary, but you should definitely do some research on how much materials will cost. If your turnaround time is tight, consider budgeting for professional help and don’t be afraid to ask for help if you’re out of your depth. The biggest way to blow your budget is attempting to install something yourself, like a glass enclosure for your shower, and hiring out anyway when you’ve reached the limit of your expertise. Be realistic and keep a reserve for some wiggle room.
Don’t Forget the Little Things
Getting swept away with your grand vision is really easy, so don’t forget to think of little things like outlets, ideal locations for lights, sconces, mirrors, light switches, towel bars, cabinet hardware etc. All of these can contribute to the functionality and comfort of your bathroom, so they all deserve some thought and attention. If you’re hiring an electrician or plumber, it’s really convenient to be able to tell them exactly where you’d like things to go ahead of time.
