What Not to Skimp On When Remodeling a Bathroom

It’s natural to want to keep costs to a minimum when making a significant investment in a bathroom remodel. However, it’s best to focus on maximizing your return on investment (ROI) rather than cutting corners. In particular, you should never try to cut costs when it comes to certain components of a new bathroom. The bath renovation experts at DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Central Texas explain more.

Bathroom Tile

Moisture can create big problems—mold, along with grime, can stain your grout. Grout stains can make even a new bathroom look old and outdated. Given how difficult it is to get rid of grout stains, it’s worth asking your local bathroom remodel contractors about how you can make your new bathroom easier to maintain with groutless tiles.

Bathroom Fans

Trying to cut corners on features that don’t hold any glamour can be tempting. Why buy a top-of-the-line bathroom fan when you can settle for a standard one? Well, for one thing, bathroom fans help prevent moisture problems. A damp environment is the perfect breeding ground for mold and mildew.

Countertops

Don’t skimp on the bathroom countertops. Spills from mouthwashes and cosmetics can seep into porous material, creating permanent stains. Invest in solid surfaces that don’t require excessive maintenance.

Waterproofing

Speaking of moisture problems, don’t skimp on waterproofing the bathroom floor and walls either. If water seeps into the tiles, it can cause structural wood to rot.

Professional Remodeling Help

Lastly, don’t cut corners on professional help. An inexperienced contractor is more likely to make mistakes that could end up damaging expensive tiles and fixtures, costing you more in the long run. If you’re planning a bathroom renovation, it’s always best to stay on the safe side and hire a qualified contractor.
