Being aware of the steps to go through can help you create a plan and a timeline to minimize the disruption to your normal schedule. The following lists provide a general flow of activity that can serve as a checklist for your planning purposes.
Starting about ten years ago, a trend began growing toward personal expression being a major influence on how people remodeled their bathrooms. Prior, people wanted nice looking and functional solutions.
Remodeling can be quite a chore for a homeowner. To avoid being overwhelmed, whether you’ve done it before on not, it requires a great deal of planning to create the final product. Read on to find a few questions and answers about the bathroom remodeling process which will, hopefully, help homeowners gain a bit more insight.
Whether you are building new or have an existing home, walk-in-tubs can fit your needs. They can be installed in new construction or fit in the space of your old bathtub.
There are a couple of options you can look at when you have a leaking or rusting steel or cast iron bathtub. You can either buy a new replacement tub, incurring the expense of the tub and the related tear-out and repair expenses, OR you can keep your present tub and improvie it by relining it with an acrylic liner.
Bathrooms represent one of the most significant areas where effective use of Universal Design will allow people to live in their homes in their later years.
Our population is getting older, and very often they look at bath tubs that are rarely being used and decide to create bathrooms that are more functional — in other words they are building showers they want, many times walk in designs, using the same foot print of the tub that was removed.
Bathtubs and showers needing attention often put homeowners at a crossroads. Traditionally when tubs were ugly, worn or damaged with chips and scratches, replacement was the first and probably the best option. In recent years, however, technology has delivered options that homeowners in the past did not have available to them.
Remodeling may not be the answer for you. It may be too expensive or just too radical for your tastes. However, there are a number of smaller projects you can do to alter the look, feel and function of various parts of your home.
There is a new product on the market for bathtubs. The material has been around for years. It has mainly been used in upper end housing. The product is acrylic and all the leading manufacturers have been using acrylic in their top-of-the-line garden tubs and spas.
The bathroom is the new den in some circles. More and more, people are going to the bathroom to relax after a hectic day. Homeowners are upgrading the rooms outfitting them with everything from soaking tubs to heated floors to make themselves comfortable. But peace and quiet aren't the only motivating factors. An upgraded bathroom helps sell a home and can be a good investment.
