A Basic Bathroom Remodeling To-Do List



Before you start calling local contractors, asking for a bathroom quote, it’s best to have a plan already in place. This helps you communicate with your potential remodeler so they can have a better understanding of what needs to be done. Too many times, homeowners jump into a bathroom remodeling project feet first. To avoid problems associated with poor planning, here’s a quick checklist to get you started on the right path.

Gather Ideas

This may seem pretty basic, but as mentioned above, a lot of homeowners decide to completely redo their bathrooms without first gathering ideas. With all the research tools at our disposal, the real problem should be having so many design inspirations that it can be difficult to decide which one to choose! We suggest narrowing your choices to two or three design pegs and then using online design sites to see your ideas in the virtual world.

Determine the Scope of Your Project

Once you’ve decided on the look and feel that you want, it’s time to determine the scope of your project as this will have a major impact on your bathroom estimate. Remember, the amount of work that needs to be done will affect your budget as well as how long it takes to complete. Ask yourself questions like “Should I convert my tub into a shower?” or “Will moving fixtures around improve my bathroom layout?” The answer to these questions can help you nail down the exact scope of the work to be done. 

Find a Great Contractor

How your bathroom turns out will largely depend on the contractor you end up working with. For this reason, we recommend that you interview at least three companies and do a side-by-side comparison of their written estimates. While it may be tempting to go for the company with the lowest bid, it won’t always be the best option. No matter who you go for, make sure that they are licensed. They should also have general liability insurance to protect you and your home in case an accident occurs during the project.
