First plan your inspiration with a bathroom remodeling folder
Bathroom remodeling entails having in your mind what you desire for your new bathroom with a design. Make a list of items to be included along with the sizes and styles of the bath items. Having a folder to store this information is a wonderful way to keep your bath planning organized. Pictures, web page planning information, and pricing information with bids and contracts from contractors can be stored here. Items of importance to find information on include a flooring style, counter-top desires, and your plumbing and cabinetry selections.

Work with a reputable remodel contractor
Working with a reputable contractor is of utmost importance. Getting referrals for your bath remodel contractor from a local lumberyard is one of the most valuable sources if you do not have a friend or relative?who has worked with a great remodeler. Getting at least three estimates for the remodeling may be in your best interest , still work with the contractor you does quality construction and works with quality products. A good younger contractor may be a source of savings for you, still have a contract and understand exactly what products and construction will be done.

The Demolition Process
Your bathroom remodeling begins with a mess. Plastic and tarps help to contain the mess of tearing out cabinetry, showers, and walls pending on the extent of your bath remodel project. Plaster and drywall removal creates dust everywhere and if your ceiling needs to be redone you will also have attic debris such as ceiling insulation falling.

Construction Process for the New Bathroom
Leaving your framing in place is the easiest and least expensive method. To create a new bathroom design takes planning and working with an architect or remodeling contractor who understands a simple 3-D architectural program with structural considerations for your existing framing. After your framing design is in place you will need electrical run to your outlets, lighting locations, and ceiling exhaust fan. Heating and cooling ductwork is needed for adding a new bathroom, and plumbing adjustments will be made now. After inspections are complete the drywall process starts and your new bathroom seems very near. 3 coats of drywall coating and sanding later and you are ready for the painting, cabinetry installation, plumbing installation, and your new flooring.

Final Details To Remember in a Bath Remodel
Before starting a bathroom remodeling project remember the extra dollar amount for small items. Blinds, lights, mirrors, towel holders, toilet paper holder, and bath accessory sets often are not included into a remodeler bid or are figured in a customer allowance number. Expect a few delays such as with inspections and be sure to enjoy the fun yet often challenging process of that bathroom of your dreams!
