Terrazzo Australian Marble understands the kind of commitment and undertaking that goes with renovations as a whole which is why we’re giving you a little boost up should you decide you want to do a little renovating yourself starting with the bathroom.
Set a budget and stick to it.
Knowing exactly how much you’re able to spend on a bathroom renovation will set the pace throughout your project. Set it and stick to it. However, setting a buffer, say 10 to 20 percent of your total budget is actually a smart move. What this does is allows you to play around with design options whilst not worrying about the maximum spending amount you set.
Set a Schedule
It’s never easy on anyone when there’s a renovation happening in the house which is why you have to set a working schedule and timeframe. This is especially true if you’re going the DIY route however, if you’re having some components done by professionals like the tiling, the partitioning and the plumbing, most contractors can be asked to work on the schedule you set.
Measure Everything. Double Check.
Nothing sets back a renovation faster than wrong measurements. When fixtures don’t fit, when the plumbing doesn’t align, when you run out of tiles and there’s still a huge swath of floor that needs to be done, your renovation budget AND schedule will surely take a hit. Measure everything. Ask your contractor or builder to measure everything and then you can compare results. This way you can double check and revisit with the measuring tape if some of the numbers do not match.
Settle on a Design
Before you even begin to shop for fixtures, or pick out your tiles, settle on an overall design aesthetic for your bathroom. Check what’s trending. Scour design and renovation blogs for inspiration. General rule of thumb for bathroom design – keep it minimal. Too many design components can make your bathroom feel cramped. Keep your lines simple, clean and classic.
