Identify Scope of Bathroom Remodel
Renovating a bathroom on a budget starts with a clear understanding of your goals and the work involved. Identify the scope of your bathroom remodel by evaluating whether this is going to be a complete remodel or if there are just a few elements of your bathroom that you would like to change like the vanity top or the electrical fixtures. Once you have the scope of your project defined, then you can move on to the cost.
Break Down the Costs
There are a number of bathroom renovation steps, but one of your top priorities should be establishing a budget. You can achieve an amazing new look for your bathroom without having to exceed your financial limitations. This starts by breaking down the costs including:
- Materials
- Upgrades to plumbing and electrical
- Work permits
- Fees for bathroom contractors
Once you have defined these numbers, then you can get a sense of where you can make adjustments to get the look you want but at a cost that suits your budget.
Remodel on Your Own or Hire a Contractor?
You could do a bathroom remodel on your own, but this can be a challenge without the right skills and knowledge, particularly when working with plumbing and electrical upgrades. It’s always recommended to work with a contractor who understands the scope of work involved to get the job done right.
A contractor will work with you from the design stage to the final finishes to ensure the job is done right. A contractor can also make sure that all work is done to your local building code and regulatory guidelines. Remember to only use a contractor who is fully licensed and insured. Don’t be afraid to check for references and ask to see examples of their previous work. This will ensure that you find the right contractor who understands your design needs.
Overview of Bathroom Remodel
After discussing your vision with the contractor, you will be able to begin putting all the pieces together for your bathroom remodel.
Establish Floor Plan
Part of the design process is developing a floor plan. This will be the guide your contractor uses to create your dream bathroom. A floor plan is the layout of your new bathroom and should reflect your specific needs such as where you want more storage or if you need to move the toilet or bathtub to accommodate your new design.
Apply for Building Permits
Next, you will need to apply for building permits. It’s always advisable to contact your local municipal authority if you want to do any kind of home renovation. A large bathroom remodel will likely require building permits and your contractor can help you get these organized before the work begins.
Demolish Space
The next step in your bathroom remodel will be to demolish. This may mean removing a vanity to tearing out walls to begin rebuilding from the studs up. Remember to keep in mind that you may not have access to your bathroom for a few days so make sure to have alternate arrangements before work begins.
Work on Plumbing and Electrical Systems
Many older bathrooms can benefit from upgrades to plumbing and electrical systems. Not only will this improve the energy efficiency in your bathroom, but it will also save you money long-term. Your contractor will help you find the right lighting and bathroom finishes to complement your new bathroom design.
Install Shower or Bathtub
Have you always wanted a steam shower in your bathroom? Maybe you want a more modern bathtub? No matter what design you choose, a new modern bathtub or shower will give your bathroom an instant facelift. Remember any tile work will require a few extra days to set.
Paint
It’s always good to choose a neutral colour for the bathroom that amplifies light. This will not only make your bathroom feel larger, but will also enhance the brightness when you get ready in the morning.
Install Flooring
There are many great flooring options to choose from in modern bathrooms. From stunning marble floors to classic tile finishes, you can showcase your personal style with a unique flooring pattern. Ask your contractor about heated flooring options for added comfort.
Install Toilet
A toilet usually takes no more than an hour to install. Your contractor can help you find an energy-efficient option that helps save water while adding a touch of modern luxury to your bathroom design.
Install Bathroom Fan
A bathroom fan is one of the best ways to preserve the finish of your newly remodeled bathroom. A bathroom fan helps to remove moisture and protect your walls and ceilings from developing mould and other bacteria.
Install Counter, Sink, and Cabinet
Finally, the counters and sinks will be installed to complete the look of your bathroom. Choose a vanity option that gives you lots of prep space paired with cabinetry that allows for easy storage. Your sink should be large enough to handle regular usage and positioned to allow for easy access for everyone in your home.
