Fancy a Luxury Bathroom? It’s Time to Get Saving

Hello World!  Welcome Friends!  Luxury bathrooms are all the rage at the moment. From in-bathroom spas to unique tiles, it’s easy to see why they’re so in demand – and they can add value to a property when it comes to sale time, too. But as Time magazine reports, new bathrooms don’t come cheap – and it’s believed to cost between $30,000 and $100,000 or more to remodel an entire bathroom in a luxury style. As a result, you’ll need to make sure you plan well if you want to achieve this goal. Here are some top tips on how to install the luxury bathroom of your dreams without breaking the bank.

Have a savings goal

Whether you’re a regular saver or you’re new to the world of stockpiling cash for the future, for most people it’s going to be essential that cash is saved up to pay for a new luxury bathroom. For some, this sort of savings challenge will be easy. But for those who aren’t used to saving up for something, it won’t be quite as simple.

Reminding yourself of what you’re saving for can help keep you on track. Once you’ve got your luxury bathroom design finalized, for example, you can cut out catalog photos and display them on a cork board to keep yourself in a savings mindset. If you need a boost in your cash flow for big ticket items like a jacuzzi bath, meanwhile, you can consider taking out a loan to help you acquire your new bathroom furniture a little earlier.

Get your DIY hat on

A luxury bathroom doesn’t have to be created or installed entirely by an expert. Of course, it’s essential that plumbers and electricians are responsible for the relevant fixtures and fittings – but that would apply even if you were just installing a standard bathroom. In this case, there are still some tasks that you can carry out yourself.

If you’re planning to install luxury tiles like Italian porcelain, for example, it’s relatively simple to learn how to re-tile a bathroom yourself. If you’re going to include high-end luxury panels in colors like anthracite, meanwhile, you may be able to get hold of these online and fit them around the bath yourself. The key is learning how to spot when a job needs to be left to someone with a professional touch: if these tasks are botched, your luxury image could be spoiled.

Gaining the luxury bathroom of your dreams may be expensive, but it is surprisingly achievable. By focusing on top tips like getting active with DIY and having a clear savings goal, you too can have the luxury bathroom finishes that spas and hotels can boast. With a little strategic planning, there’s no reason to sacrifice your dreams – or break the bank.
