The smallest room in the house, the bathroom, is one of the most expensive to renovate because of its complexity. The extra expense means that you want to make sure your Brisbane bathroom renovation goes off without a hitch, as well as come in under budget. Here are five considerations you need to consider and ensure you get the bathroom you deserve.

1. Understand the finer details

Water is your home’s worst enemy. Let moisture run unchecked through your house, and you will soon have no choice but to fork out costly repair bills. As you know, the bathroom is the wettest area of a home, so it’s essential your bathroom waterproofing keeps every drop out of the walls and floor. Remember, you can’t have a bathroom that’s almost waterproof – it is, or it isn’t, there is no in-between.

Tiling can be a simple job, but mistakes stand out and can make the whole job look crooked. Professional tilers like to think about how the tiles are going lay from the centre outward. This concept prevents weirdly shaped tiles at the end of a row from ruining the look of your new bathroom.

2. Use a professional bathroom renovator

When you’re looking for a bathroom renovator, make sure they tick all the boxes. You are looking for experience and that all their licensing is in place for waterproofing, plumbing, and electrical. Doing your due diligence is the best way to ensure your bathroom reno is installed up to code.

3. Get a written guarantee

Unfortunately, disputes can happen, but without a written guarantee, you might not have a claim. Get everything down in writing, so you are protected should the bathroom renovation go awry in some way.

4. Stay within your budget

Your bathroom renovation budget will depend on a lot of factors, including the age and style of your home, the space you have available, how much you can afford, the home’s location, and even how long you plan to live there.

You don’t want to overcapitalize in the bathroom. Overcapitalizing is a term used to describe spending money on a renovation that you won’t get back if you decide to sell.

Of course, if you plan on living in the house until you’re old and wise, then how much you spend won’t matter as much. However, if you plan on moving in a few years, you want to match your budget with what the local market can stand.

5. Going full reno when a cosmetic touch up will do

All too often many people go into full renovation mode and rip out the entire bathroom so they can start from scratch. In a lot of cases, this might be unnecessary.

If there’s a couple of tiles that are broken which can’t be matched, instead of ripping them out, a contrasting band may do just as nicely, as well as be more affordable. Shower recesses can also be taken out and a new one put back in without destroying the entire bathroom.

Completely changing the bathroom around will mean that you are going to have to reroute all the plumbing, which can significantly up the cost of the build.
