Things to Consider Before Renovating your Bathroom
Posted on Aug 08, 2022
Renovating and upgrading the bathing space may appear enthralling at first. But exploring some right fittings that suits your bathing space is crucial before choosing those attractive elements in getting the perfect result.
Because it is costly and time-consuming, bathroom remodelling is not done multiple times. Apart from complementing the home décor, ensuring complete functionality of the bathroom is also crucial. Before the exhausting renovation process begins, you might want to check our checklist to ensure the renovation is on track, within the budget and hassle-free.
Time
It is assumed that renovating the bathroom will take a few days as it is probably the smallest unit. But then, depending on the number of items that will be changed, the contractor will have to go through all the steps resulting in more time consumption.
Time planning includes considering the duration of renovation and the time needed for related tasks like ordering tiles, luxury bathroom fittings, and sanitary bathroom ware so that the contractor gets the fittings when needed. Time planning is of great importance for houses having a single bathroom as they have to make arrangements to take a shower and use the toilet while their bathroom is being renovated.
Allocating A Proper Budget
If you haven’t already made a budget, you should plan a realistic and reasonable budget soon. This will help you decide what elements to include in bathroom restructuring. After subtracting the labour expenses, one can see what amount can be allocated to tiles, fittings and other aspects. A detailed budget gives a clear idea of the products’ quality.
Apart from budget, the size of the bathroom also determines many factors of a renovation. The standard length of the bathroom is approx. 20 sqft. containing a sink, toilet, and half bath with a sink. Some people prefer a luxurious bathing experience and therefore prefer lavish bathroom fittings and accessories.
Order Of Work
While renovating the bathroom, completing the tasks in a particular order will help reduce hassle and cleaning work to a great extent. Whether repainting or remodelling, the ideal start is the top of the room- the ceiling, the walls, and the floor. This sequence prevents damage to the new components.
Prioritizing What’s Essential
The cost of remodelling the bathroom will depend on bathroom accessories. If you plan to make the remodelling more cost-effective, you can remove the extra additions from your plan. Although these little embellishments are attractive and ornate the space, they are not contributing to the bathroom’s functionality. Besides, keeping an extra pocket in the budget can help cover any unexpected expense.
Opting For Slip-Resistant Floor
Because the bathroom is a wet room, it is wise to opt for a slip-resistant floor to avoid falling while getting out of showers. In addition, as these tiles are small and have a coarse surface, they increase friction, avoiding slipping. A wide variety of designs and affordable rates make them a fine choice for your bathroom flooring. Electric heater flooring beneath the tiles is highly demanded in cold regions for ease of usage all year.
Bathroom Accessories
Investing in a premium range of faucets, showers, and the shower head is essential as these bathroom fittings are the most important and used. High-quality products ensure long-lasting life and reduce the hassle of frequently repairing them.
There is a wide variety of luxury shower heads which offer specific advantages. Some expected benefits are– convenience for individuals with limited mobility, saving time, and helping clean the bathing space. There are many ranges available in showerheads; prominent ones are- Moove, Still and O3, and Cloud.
Imagining a bathroom without faucets–feels like a vague conception. However, a perfect faucet is highly functional and, at the same time, elegant. The faucet does require special planning because, in the end, it is in the central limelight of the bathroom. The long-lasting and exceptional quality faucets are available in different collections- Bell, Elizabeth, and Epoque.
Trusting The Experts
While doing a significant upgrade, relying on the experts will lead to a flawless bathroom that will work impeccably and give value to your space for many years. The biggest hidden problem encountered with older buildings is improper framing and corroded and damaged plumbing, leading to leakage problems.
Lighting
When choosing the lights for bathroom remodelling, selecting “daylight” fluorescent colour lights will give more of a natural light which is more conducive for grooming and makeup application. In addition, using decorative lights will enhance the ambience and conceal any lesser appealing shadows.
Conclusion
Keeping all these aspects of renovating the bathroom in mind will help you make your vision a reality.
