Bathroom Remodeling Tips

Like many homeowners, you are probably concerned about the overall cost of remodeling your bathroom. Luckily, there are quite a few things that you can do to save money both on your project and in the long run.

Know Your Budget

Deciding your budget ahead of time is one of the best ways to save money. When you know exactly how much money you are willing to spend, your contractor will be able to discuss your options with you, so you can make the decisions that are most important to you.

Keep Your Plumbing Where It Is

Utilizing your current plumbing system can save you hundreds of dollars. Keeping big items such as your toilet and your bathtubs where they are currently located can significantly lower the cost of your renovations.  However, if you do decide that you want a total change, a professional plumber can inspect your bathroom and talk you through your options.

Consider Upgrading Your Toilet and Tub

The tub and toilet are typically the first things that pop into your mind when you think about your bathroom. Plus, they get used the most. When remodeling your bathroom, it is a good idea to pick out the tub and toilet you want first then plan to rest of the bathroom around those two main items.

Consider Energy Use

Investing in items such as low-flow showerheads and low-flow toilets are a great way to save money. When you upgrade to a more efficient plumbing system, you will reduce water consumption and lower your water bills!
