Things to Consider Before Adding an Extra Bathroom



If you’ve been fighting over who gets to use the shower first while trying to get ready for work, it’s time to plan. DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Omaha, the top searched “bathroom remodeler near me,” shares some things to think about before adding an extra bathroom to your home.

Location

The quickest and cheapest way to build another bathroom is on the side (or directly upstairs) of an existing one, where the plumbing is already set up. You can place a bathroom anywhere in your home if your local construction codes permit it. A closet, a bedroom, the basement, or even the end of a hallway with no rooms on the other side are additional typical locations.

Building Codes and Permits

Building laws and permits vary by city and town. Find out what is involved in obtaining a permit and scheduling any required inspections, as well as what the code demands in a bathroom, such as ventilation, windows, or restrictions on the kind of pipes you can use.

Cost

Several factors affect the price of construction indicated in your bathroom estimate. These include room size, electrical and plumbing work, location, and whether you’re adding to an existing area or the house. To add a bathroom to an existing space, new hot and cold water pipes and wastewater must be installed beneath the floor. Although it is an expensive investment, the pleasure it provides and the value it adds to the property can more than cover it.

Purpose

There are several compelling reasons to add a bathroom to your home. Growing families may need it. If you intend to sell your property soon, you may be considering adding value to it and raising the asking price. Understand your goal so that you can plan wisely to get the most out of the project.

Contractor

It will be worthwhile to leave the project to a reputable contractor like DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen since a bathroom addition is more complex than a typical bathroom remodel.
