Bathroom Planning Is An Important First Step

by Chet Lystrom Have you ever looked at your bathroom and wish it looked a little different, or maybe a little more modern? Maybe you've wanted a larger tub, a larger shower, or maybe you wanted to add more room so that you can have a shower and a tub as two separate components. When you first start planning to remodel your bathroom, consider your budget, available space, and what you would like as the center piece of the bathroom. Local contractors can take your measurements and ideas and give you a pretty accurate idea of how much your new bathroom will cost so you can budget accordingly. Once the budget is set, planning is complete, and you are ready to get started, you can create the bathroom of your dreams. Current Space Or Add To It? When bathroom planning, one of the first things you'll want to decide is how much space you need to do what you want. If you want to install larger bath and shower components, or separate shower and tub components, you may need more room. You can do this by knocking out a wall or doing whatever you have to do. Be sure to figure in the expansion when you're getting bids and planning your budget. The room you have available to expand into is going to be your main concern. If your bathroom is on the outside edge of the house, you should be able to expand into the yard. If you don't have the room you need, you'll probably have to go back to the drawing board with your bathroom planning. Components Now that you know what kind of space you have to work with, you're going to want to fill it with the various components, such as sinks, toilets, tubs, showers, and whatever else you want to put in there. At this point, you can also determine the style you want to go with. Definitely stick with the style you choose. Keep everything looking clean and professional by sticking with one look. Just have fun with it, as bathroom planning is a blast. The best part comes, though, when you're all done and you can finally look at your finished product and know that you planned it all by yourself.
