Home renovation, bathroom layout

There are many different aspects of home renovation, bathroom design. You don’t necessarily have to redesign your bathroom to get a fresh, updated look. For this house renovation, we change the look easily and cheaply.

The steps we took for this home renovation, bathroom design were:

I removed the wallpaper and painted the bathroom with fresh white paint. We use a white paint called Swiss Coffee.
Glaze white tub and shower tiles.
The old sink, vanity and medicine cabinet have been removed and these items have been replaced with updated furnishings.
Replaced the old shower door with a new clear glass shower door.
Purchased and installed new sink and shower fixtures along with new towel bars.
Re-tile the bathroom floor with an updated white tile.

To cut costs with your home renovation, bathroom design, consider glazing your bathroom tiles instead of ripping out old tiles and installing new ones. This bathroom had blue tiles in the shower and reddish-brown tiles as trim. We brought in someone who not only cleaned the tiles but also glazed them white and created a whole new look for the bathroom.

Another cost-saving measure we took was that we bought a dresser and medicine cabinet that weren’t 100% perfect. The dresser had a small chip in one corner of the cabinet and the medicine cabinet had a mark on the side. Both blemishes are hard to spot unless pointed out. As long as these blemishes aren’t easily noticed, sometimes you can get lucky and find exactly what you need at a great price. There are many kitchen and bath retailers that not only sell new products, but also have a back room where they stock less-than-perfect products available for sale.

Since this house only had one bathroom, we bought quite a few towel racks to maximize the number of towels that could be hung at one time. Our idea was that, most likely, there would be more than one person living in the house. The fixtures we bought were inexpensive but modern looking. Department stores like Home Depot or Lowe’s have a great selection of bath and shower accessories at very competitive prices.

So, don’t be intimidated when it’s time to update your home with your home renovation, bathroom design. You don’t always need to spend tens of thousands of dollars to add value to your home with a renovated bathroom.
