Taking on a bathroom remodeling project can help you improve both the look and functionality of your space. However, it also requires significant planning and careful considerations. Before beginning a remodel, be sure to consider the following checklist.

Pre-Bathroom Remodel Checklist

Budget & Timeline

The time and money that you have available to complete your remodel can impact the scope of the project. If you have a small budget or if the project needs to be completed quickly because you’re preparing to sell or move in, then you might focus on small finishes or paint instead of reconfiguring the layout or gutting the entire room.

Functionality

It’s always important to consider how you use the space so that you can ensure the remodel meets all of your practical needs. You should also consider the usability of various fixtures. If it’s a family bathroom, then you will need a tub for the kids. However, if you’re thinking about living in the space permanently, then a stand-up shower or walk-in bathtub might be more beneficial.

Size Constraints

Measure the space available and consider the size of every significant piece of furniture or appliance you are thinking about adding. If you’re working within a tight space, you might consider smaller fixtures like a pedestal sink or stand-up shower to save room. Be sure to factor in enough space for you and anyone else who uses the bathroom to move around and get ready, as well.

Style

Once you have the practical aspects covered, you can move onto the style of the space. Think about the colors, materials, and overall vibe that you want the room to have. Create a mood board or look at inspiration online to help you stick to a plan. This will ensure that the room looks cohesive once all of the different elements come together.
