No matter how large or small the budget is, bathroom Remodeling will never get started if there’s extra work to do. You or a professional is going to make sure the bathroom is in good condition before the remodel process. Look for these problematic mistakes and correct it.
- Time: You need enough days or weeks from beginning to end. The time depends on product shipment for new bathroom tiles, fixtures, cabinets, toilets, etc. and how much rearranging or changing from the original look. Don’t be afraid to reschedule on days where you are available. Make sure you keep the same price and outline in writing.
- Floors and walls: Because of water splashes on the floor or on the shower walls, the floors and walls must be waterproof, resistant to slips and falls, and durable. Choose material that withstands water and much more. Tiles made of granite, marble or ceramic are great for floors and walls. Vinyl and cement on floors are also fantastic choices.
- Newly discovered problems: It looks fine one the surface but underneath there’s water damage and bad ventilation. Before installation the foundation, pipes, vents, floor and tile must be in good condition.
- Measurements: Unless you have an unused room, you cannot change the size of the bathroom. You cannot change existing pipes and wiring. You cannot change the size of bathroom fixtures. Make the most out of your limitations. Purchase items that fit the measurements while embracing the decor and style of the bathroom.
- Lighting: Electrical problems affect lighting in the bathroom. Make sure the wires are up to date. In addition, use nightlights, lights that require batteries or energy saving lights so it doesn’t use too much electricity. A bathroom with no light will cause accidents.
- Ventilation: Bathrooms need heavy ventilation. From odors and wet floors to mold and mildew, ventilation can cure all conditions and more with a simple installation. An exhaust fan with a vent or a window with a window fan will do the trick.
