Are You Planning to Remodel Or Upgrade Your Bathroom?

There are seemingly a million things you can do to upgrade your bathroom, whether you want a small 2 minute project, a weekend gig, or a full month overhaul. Maybe you're bored, or you're systematically updating various parts your house and the bathroom just happens to be next. Either way, this is not something to be taken lightly, especially if you want to do the full enchilada. Write it out, make drawings if necessary, price your options at various stores and then dig in when the timing is right.

So what are your options? Ok, you could do something small like replacing the bathroom shower faucet. Not enough? Maybe you replace the whole shower enclosure. Or how about a new toilet with automatic flushing? Or a new bathroom vanity or medicine cabinet? Don't turn around, you may need new light fixtures or a shower curtain.

See? You can start small and it will easily blow up into a major overhaul. If this is the only bathroom in your house you have the added complication of keeping it functional as much as possible while you work. It's not just a demolition zone, you have to keep it safe and usable. If you have secondary bathrooms available then consider yourself lucky, although other members of your house will still be pushing you to finish quickly.

If you're ready for the major overhaul then talk to a design specialist for ideas, how to plan the demolition and rebuild and how to pick the right appliances and features you'll need. If you're handy enough to do it all yourself you'll save a fortune in outside labor costs. If you can't, then hire a contractor who knows his stuff and get a firm deadline written out. You don't want this drag on any longer than necessary.
