subject: Planning Your Bathroom Remodeling [print this page] Do you wish you could have a bathroom as beautiful as your friends but aren't sure what you can afford? Do you know you need to remodel your bathroom but aren't sure where to start? Bathroom Remodeling is a great DIY project for the right person. If you're the right person, you'll love this article as I'm going to give you the steps you need to plan your bathroom remodeling.
You don't have to spend a lot of money on bathroom remodeling to have it look great when you're done. You just need to have a plan and know what you want your finished project to look like. If you're not sure what you want, you can look at some remodeling magazines or do some surfing online for bathroom remodeling ideas. Your budget will be the deciding factor on what you want and what you can actually have. While you may find you need a plumber, electrician or contractor for some of the work, there are actually a lot of the work you can do yourself.
Measuring your bathroom is the first step in your remodeling project. You'll need to know all the measurements for your wall, floors and where your fixtures are so you'll know what kinds of work is involved as well as the costs. After all, you can't buy new flooring if you don't know the size of the room! Unless you'll actually be adding things that require ripping up your walls, most of the remodeling can be done with the help of DIY guides available in most building supply stores.
When choosing colors for your bathroom, stay with neutral warm colors for the floors and walls. This will add a relaxing atmosphere to your bathroom. If you want bold patterns, colors and designs, put them in your towel sets, vanity accessories, wall hangings, rugs or shower curtains. You're guaranteed to love the result of your effort and planning!
