Effortless Bathroom Design Advice Can Save You Money

By Maurice Amend


The bathroom is a part of the home where we spend a good deal of time. Every day we use it to bathe, for grooming, and for other personal uses. Most of us is able to complete bathroom renovation projects successfully if we are somewhat handy and we do a little planning.

As such, you would prefer your surroundings to be as nice as possible. In addition to that, having a well designed bathroom means increasing the value of your home, and getting a higher price if you choose to resell it. Simple changes such as painting the walls and upgrading the flooring don't require you to change the layout of your bathroom.

Instead of knocking down walls to make the bathroom bigger, you can create the illusion of even more space by using lighter colored paint or flooring. Too many cabinets, despite their usefulness is able to actually make it feel cramped.

Consider taking some of the clutter out of your bathroom and actually reducing the number of cabinets. The kitchen is another area of the that is used quite often. Prospective buyers pay prime attention to this section of a home.

One of the things they will be looking at are the counter top and floors. Granite is an excellent choice for counters, and is always fashionable and useful.

One big factor in the price of a bathroom renovation is how much work you will be doing yourself and how much you will be paying someone else to do it for you. Adding new tiling is able to completely change the look of the entire room. Renovation does not have to mean major construction or changing out the entire layout of a room.

A even more complicated project like installing tiles in the shower will probably require an expert. Be sure to deal only with licensed, reliable professionals. If other rooms in your house are damaged due to excess moisture from the shower, you may have to replace some dry wall in other rooms.
