What To Expect During Your Bathroom Remodel

Eliminate the stress by being prepared.

If you're planning to remodel your bathroom, it's important to know what to expect during the process. Bathroom remodeling can be an exciting project, but it can also be overwhelming and stressful if you don't have a clear idea of what's involved. 

This article walks through 5 key stages of bathroom remodels so you can be better prepared and have a more relaxing and enjoyable experience. 

  1. Budgeting and Planning

Before you start any remodeling project, it's important to create a budget and a plan. This will help you determine what changes you want to make, how much you're willing to spend, and how long the project will take. The planning phase is also a good time to research materials and fixtures and to work with a designer or contractor to create a detailed plan.

  1. Demolition and Preparation

Once you have a plan in place, the next step is to prepare the bathroom for remodeling. This typically involves removing any existing fixtures, such as the bathtub, shower, sink, and toilet. If you're working with a contractor, they will likely handle this step for you. However, if you're doing the work yourself, be sure to take safety precautions and follow proper demolition techniques.

  1. Plumbing and Electrical

Depending on the scope of your bathroom remodel, you may need to make changes to the plumbing or electrical systems. This could involve rerouting pipes or wiring, installing new fixtures, or upgrading the electrical panel. This step is crucial to ensure that your new bathroom functions properly and meets local building codes.

  1. Installation

Once the plumbing and electrical systems are in place, the next step is to install the new fixtures, such as the bathtub, shower, sink, and toilet. This may involve framing or re-framing the walls, installing new drywall or tiles, and applying finishing touches such as paint or wallpaper. This step is where the transformation really takes shape, and you can start to see your new bathroom come to life.

  1. Final Touches

After the major work is complete, it's time to add the finishing touches to your new bathroom. This could include installing accessories such as towel bars and toilet paper holders, adding storage solutions, and accessorizing with artwork or plants. This is also a good time to do a final inspection to ensure that everything is working properly and that there are no leaks or other issues.

A general contractor who's an expert in bathroom remodeling can help you bring your vision to life. When you’re ready to get started, Cost Saver can come out to your house and provide you with a detailed estimate to upgrade your bathroom.
