Important Bathroom Remodeling Considerations You Shouldn’t Forget

Bathroom remodeling is now more popular than kitchen remodeling among American homeowners. You can expect to recoup over 60% of the costs of a bathroom remodel if you ever decide to sell, but only if you do the project right. To make sure your bathroom renovation goes smoothly, here are some considerations to remember.

Always Think About Selling

You might not sell your home for years, but you still need to consider that possibility every time you make a decision. For example, if you prefer a certain color or style for your bathroom, would that color or style be attractive to most buyers?

A good tip is to always consider the element of timelessness each time you do a renovation. Bathroom remodelers recommend this to customers because it leaves little room for regrets, especially if you do have plans to sell in the near future. Shades of white and other neutral colors can keep your bathroom timeless, as can a modern yet simple design that coordinates well with the theme of your home.

Plan the Lighting

A bathroom should not be dark. It’s unsafe to be in a bathroom, especially in the shower, if you can’t see properly. It’s one of the reasons slips and falls often happen in the bathroom. Keep yours well-lit by installing the right type and size of windows without sacrificing privacy. Artificial lighting should also be planned properly because you will be using your bathroom at all hours of the day.

Invest in Non-Slip Flooring

Another reason people slip in the bathroom is that the floor is often wet. As with lighting, flooring is not where you try to save a few bucks. Invest in non-slip flooring, including the shower floor. If you’re only doing a minor remodel and would like to keep your floor, it’s a good idea to use anti-slip tape and mats with suction.

Plan for More Storage

If you don’t plan for proper storage, you’ll likely run into problems with a cluttered bathroom or having to leave the room just to grab supplies you need. The average bathroom is small — all the more reason to plan the storage well in advance. Smart storage solutions will make life easier and your bathroom neater.

The Various Zones of a Hard-Working Kitchen

The traditional kitchen triangle, focusing on the stove, sink, and refrigerator, has been a staple in kitchen design for decades. However, the complexities of contemporary family life demand more. The six-zone approach divides the kitchen into preparation, cooking, cleaning, consumables, non-consumables, and leisure areas. This segmentation not only enhances functionality[...]
