Bathroom renovation is something that most people like to associate with a time-consuming, demanding, and stressful process. But that doesn’t have to be the case for you. Here’s our practical guide on how to avoid all that and to end up with a remodeled bath that you will love and cherish. 

The secret sauce

The secret sauce is made of few things. First of all, preparation. You need to know what you want to accomplish with your renovation, and how you want it to look like. The sooner you figure out that, the better. This is the basis for all, and there isn't going forward before you figure out this.

Once you figure out this, you need to start thinking about the changes you need to make. Sometimes, a bath renovation might require changing the plumbing or parts of it. Other times, there is no need to change any of it. But in any case, it is something that needs to be taken into consideration. Then there is the part about the tiles. You need to make your mind whether you will take off the old ones or you are okay with the new ones being glued on top of the old ones. 

Last but not least, take note of all the elements in the bathrooms like the vanity, the countertop, faucets, mirrors, shower, bathtub (if any), walls, bathroom lighting, flooring, and so on. Make a list of all that will be changed. 

Next, measure your bathroom. You need to measure how much space is there for the new elements, and how all will be fitted together. Make sketches and save them for later.

Find a Specialist

Take your ideas and your sketches to a bathroom remodeling specialist. Nowadays, there are specialized companies that deal exclusively with a bathroom renovation. Most of them will gladly talk to you about your project and how they think it should be completed.

You can also use that opportunity to ask them for a quote. If your sketches are thorough and you got clear ideas about what you want to see as an end product, they will give you a quote. If possible, talk to at least a few bathroom renovation specialists, and take quotes from each one of them.

Buy Materials, Accessories, Elements and Other Bathroom Products

Let's assume you've figured out who will be doing your bathroom remodeling, and you've agreed to a quite. Next is finding everything they need to make your dream bathroom. You can either go from one store to another, or you can browse the web for websites like Myhomeware from where you can buy everything at a pretty good discount.

In Conclusion

By now you must be asking yourself, if bathroom remodeling is so easy, then why so many people are so stressed about it? Why do they make such a big deal of it? Truth is simple; they go into it unprepared. They know they want to make a change, but they are not quite sure what that means, how they want it to look, and so on.

The trouble begins when they start changing their minds and plans in the middle of the renovation. That will surely upset the contractors, which usually ends up with an increased renovation cost.

But if you go with a clear vision of what you want to achieve, then the chances for complications and unrest are significantly smaller.
