As you head into a bathroom remodeling project, you’re likely excited to create the oasis you’ve always wanted. Before you get carried away with planning, however, take note of the following proven industry tips. These will make the remodel more affordable and rewarding, so you’ll get a result you’re happy with.

What to Know About Bathroom Remodeling

1. Use Smart Lighting Design

Lighting is essential for helping you get ready in the bathroom. You need the lighting to be bright but not overwhelming. Install overhead LED recessed lights with a dimmer switch so you can customize the settings. Get high-quality vanity lighting, such as sconces, over your vanity to prevent shadows when getting ready.

2. Save on Residential Plumbing

This includes the shower, sink, and toilet. However, if you want to change the floor plan, keep costs down by only moving one or two of these features. 

3. Prioritize Ventilation

This may not be the most exciting part of your remodel, but ventilation is essential to your new bathroom’s longevity. If it’s not properly ventilated, you will have problems such as musty smells, mold, mildew, and water damage. Install a fan just for the bathroom to pull air out. Consider adding a dehumidifier as well, especially if it’s a room you’ll be showering in daily.
