Hello World! Welcome Friends! Here’s the thing with home decor shows. They promise us the world with their enviable transformations. We’re thinking, how hard can it be? If they can do it, so can we.
Somehow it never turns out like we envisioned. In most instances, it ends up being the gag with “What I bought versus what I got – the home remodeling edition.”
Cutting straight to the point. A home remodel takes time, effort and a lot of help from the professionals. When dealing with a bathroom renovation, the space or lack of it does require imagination and a whole lot of patience.
Fear not. In this article, we’ll inspire your creativity to take your bathroom from meh to amazing with these four remodeling ideas.
#1 Get the Professionals In
Cutting corners with a budget is not the ideal way to start any type of renovation work. The same goes for getting experienced professionals on the job.
Discuss costs beforehand. Remember that they may vary from location to location. For example, a bathroom remodel in Knoxville, TN can start from $30,000 depending on several factors, from the labor to the finishes.
You can count on their expertise to ensure you’ve made a sound investment; one you won’t later regret.
An updated bathroom pushes up the resale value of your home. If you are considering selling, a fresh new en-suite or guest bathroom sweetens the deal for a potential buyer.
Bathroom reno work encompasses demolition, plumbing and other complex tasks. A trusted remodeling contractor brings your vision to life, says Knoxville construction company Preferred Construction.
#2 Out With the Old, in With the New
Nobody likes a fugly (very ugly) bathroom so don’t pick a bathroom decor trend that’s fleeting and will date easily. Chances are it will reach fugly status again within a few years.
When Hollywood superstars Chrissy Teigen and John Legend moved into their new Beverly Hills home, they completely gutted their bathroom and started from scratch.
They wanted a home that was cozy and family-centered. The previous bathroom didn’t serve that purpose. Instead of remodeling it, they converted the dated room into a massive walk-in closet. Two smaller bathrooms were then combined into a larger one.
House Digest says that dated bathroom designs shouldn’t deter homeowners from reimagining the space. What worked for the previous homeowner may not work for you. Like Teigen and Legend, the best solution would be to break up a smaller bathroom to make room for a larger one.
The publication speaks about the hotel-spa experience. A well-thought-out remodel can transform your new bathroom into a functional space with all the mod-cons you’d find in a luxury hotel.
#3 Your Bathroom is Your Oasis
The self-care trend has now been incorporated into almost every room in the home. Why should the bathroom be excluded?
Better Homes & Gardens has a few suggestions that can make your bathroom your very own self-care oasis.
A whirlpool tub instantly uplifts any bathroom for a luxurious look and feel. Floating vanities and frameless glass shower doors are just some of the upgrades you can incorporate.
For that extra touch of glamor, why not invest in a chandelier? The light fixture is all about drama and sophistication.
#4 Forgo Current Trends
As previously mentioned, trends come and go. You want your bathroom to stand the test of time. It should be elegant and timeless while remaining contemporary.
A general rule of thumb is to incorporate a theme that resonates throughout your entire home.
The shift to minimalism is still present in decor styles. Naomi Neilson, the founder of Native Trails, tells Forbes that homeowners have always been drawn to the clean aesthetic of an all-white bathroom.
It’s easy to add pops of color and texture to the blank canvas. Adding natural wood finishes and copper bathroom fittings are just some of the ways to accent an all-white bathroom.
Remodeling a bathroom requires restraint. With so many options available, the choices can be overwhelming.
If you stick to your plan and take your contractor’s advice on board, you’ll end up with the bathroom of your dreams.
