Key Considerations for Bathroom Remodeling

December 31, 2015 By Steve Donato

Make the most of your small bathroom with the right remodeling.

Bathroom remodeling can greatly enhance the beauty and personal comfort of your space. But with a median investment of about $15,000, the decision to remodel is not one to be made lightly. When you do choose to remodel, there are several important considerations to keep in mind.

Things to Consider

  1. Stick to a budget
  2. Leave your plumbing alone
  3. Focus on lighting
  4. Air it out

Stick to a Bathroom Remodeling Budget

It is important to set boundaries for your project before you begin. This will set the stage for the type of materials and design you can afford to choose for your bathroom remodeling. Knowing what you can afford to spend will keep you from venturing outside your means and help you prioritize where to focus your renovations.

Avoid moving plumbing when bathroom remodeling.

Leave Your Plumbing Alone

The idea of switching up the location of your sink and toilet can be appealing, but it’s not as simple as it may seem. The costs involved in moving your plumbing suck up your budget and the demolition can prolong your remodel.

Focus on Lighting

There are few aspects of your bathroom remodeling that are as important as lighting. Sconce lighting on the area surrounding your vanity mirrors eliminates shadows and enhances your reflection when installed at eye level. Adding more lighting overall is especially beneficial for small bathrooms, making them appear larger.

Air it Out

Ventilation is not the most glamorous aspect of bathroom remodeling, but it’s essential for removing humidity that causes mirrors to fog, floors to become slippery and mold and mildew to grow. Proper ventilation helps maintain healthy air and prevents damage that may lead to future renovations.

In the end, the best thing you can do for your bathroom remodel is to plan ahead. Get expert opinions, do your research and create a firm vision of the space you’d like to create before you begin renovations. Proper planning will save you time, money and headaches.
