Giving Your Bathrooms A Quick & Affordable Facelift

Bathrooms may be the smallest rooms in your home but are the one room your guests

will spend the most time observing the dcor! If you've been putting off fixing up your bathroom because of cost, you'll be happy to hear that bathroom DIY options are endless. For almost any project you'll want to do in your bathroom, DIY kits are available, complete with step-by-step instructions.

Walls

No bathroom facelift would be complete without an update to the walls. Whether you're just adding a fresh coat of paint or installing tiles to your shower, upgrading your walls is often the first step to any bathroom repair or remodeling job. If you're choosing tiles, you'll find they're affordable and very easy to install. The easy-to-follow instructions will guide you through cutting the tiles, applying the grout right to the entire installation. Wainscoting adds a great touch to the dcor of bathrooms as well. You can save a lot of money by getting "leftover" boards from your lumberyard and cutting them to size yourself.

Floors

Because bathrooms are such a small room, new floors are very affordable whether you're choosing tiles, linoleum or carpeting. Obviously, tiles will be the most expensive and time-consuming but are still a great bathroom DIY project. All the instructions you need for the installation will be included with your tiles. If you know how to measure your room and read, you'll find this a simple job!

Fixtures

If you're trying to cut costs on your bathroom repair, you may not want to purchase new bathroom fixtures. However, by giving them a good scrubbing, replacing washers and applying simple maintenance you'll find they'll provide you with years of excellent service.

Give your guests something to occupy their mind, thoughts and eyes while in your bathroom with a small magazine rack, family photos on the wall or a small plant (which, incidentally, grow beautifully in the bathroom).
