Planning for a Bathroom Remodel: What You Need to Know

It’s a new year and you’re once again chomping at the bit to make some renovations to your home. In years past, you’ve focused on other rooms one by one, and in 2020, it’s time to give your bathroom some love.

Before you jump right into the project, you’re going to want to do your research. Here are some things to keep in mind as you proceed from the planning stages to the consultations, bills, and installation.

Budget Accordingly

No home renovation, no matter how big or small, can really get off the ground without a proper budget. It’s ideal if you spend several months, maybe longer, setting aside cash when possible so you’re financially prepared for the remodel. Remember that you’re not just paying for the price of the new bathroom addition, but installation and other fees as well.

You also want to have more money in your budget than just the entirety of the project costs. This way, if something goes wrong or an unexpected expense crops up, you won’t be caught off guard.

Start with One Fixture at a Time

You may have a complete bathroom overhaul on your to-do list, but this isn’t always necessary. What many of our CGD Glass Countertops customers have found is that by making one small but significant change to the bathroom, such as a new glass sink or vanity, that their bathroom looks brand new.

Take, for example, an issue with space. By switching out your large pedestal sink to one of our glass waterfall sinks, your sink now takes up much less room. This can open up your bathroom and make it feel bigger by only replacing a single fixture. Give it a try and see how you like your bathroom! You can always continue upgrading fixtures from there if you’d prefer.

Have a Clear-Cut Vision

If you are going for a more in-depth bathroom remodel, then you must have a strong vision and a thought-out plan for how you’d like to proceed. Documents like blueprints and even illustrations of what you want the finished product to look like can help our CGD team immensely. This is your bathroom, after all, so we want you to be happy with it.

Given the high degree of customization we offer all our customers, it’s even more important you’re clear on what you want. This is your chance to plan your bathroom the way you’ve always dreamed, so take some time and think carefully!
