Five Things You Didn’t Know About Bathroom Remodeling

July 25, 2012

Improving the appearance and functioning of your bathroom does not have to be a costly venture. Depending on the type of materials and extent of the renovation, a remodeling project’s budget can be as low as several hundred dollars. Small enhancements such as new floor tiling or a new tub and shower can transform a dull, lifeless bathroom into an inviting, attractive place to relax and refresh after a long day at the office.

Remodeling even a smaller room like the bathroom can increase the market value of your home. People wanting to buy a house or rent an apartment are usually critical of bathroom components such as the color of the walls, shape, and condition of the bathtub, and commode design. Keeping your bathroom in excellent shape and up-to-date promotes the saleability of your home. Experienced remodeling technicians working at MyHome can help you choose a contemporary design scheme that will also enhance the overall appearance of your home.

When people choose to remodel their bathroom, they frequently discover previously undetected plumbing or structural problems that could have cost thousands in repair if these issues had not been found in time. Remodeling your bathroom or any other room could potentially save you from a financial nightmare involving expensive repairs and a lengthy, noisy disruption in your life due to extensive plumbing and carpentry work.

Did you know heated bathroom floor tiling exists? Imagine stepping out of the shower or walking into a bathroom during the cold winter months and feeling the soothing warmth of heated tiling radiating into your feet. Remodeling your bathroom with a radiant heating system and special bathroom tiling not only provides you with all the heat you need to remain comfortable and cozy but also helps reduce energy costs.

Bathrooms can be easily remodeled with eco-friendly materials that are efficient and inexpensive, such as recycled glass countertops and tiles, toilets that conserve water, and paint that only contains natural, non-toxic ingredients. For example, Vetrazzo is a material made from glass recycled from old glass found at demolition sites, and landfills and provided by recycling programs. The company manufacturing Vetrazzo even keeps track of where the class was found and provides users of the material with certification that the glass was indeed recycled.

Apartment bathrooms in New York City can be uninviting and cramped sometimes but did you know by remodeling your bathroom with light-colored tiling and mirrors, your bathroom can appear to be much more spacious and airy? If you have a window in your bathroom, changing window treatments to allow more natural light to illuminate the entire bathroom, with its newly implemented tiles and mirrors, will provide you with a much more pleasant aesthetic experience when getting ready for work.
