Greenville SC Homes- Greenville, SC: Remodeling your Bathroom

There are many great reasons for taking on a bathroom remodeling job. You might want to bring your charming colonial home into the 20th Century with a soaking tub or pedestal sink. Perhaps the tile in your bathroom harkens back to the 40’s, pink and black, authentic but not in harmony with your more modern taste. There are many older homes in Greenville that conserve the old world charm of years gone by but just need a little improvement to make them more comfortable for the homeowners. A bathroom remodel is not as costly as a kitchen re-do and usually most of the cost will be recuperated at time of sale. More importantly, if all it takes is a bathroom make-over to make you more comfortable in your home, then the cost, though important, becomes secondary.

Here are a few things to consider before undertaking a bathroom project:
* Gutting the bathroom versus a cosmetic make-over. If you are not expanding the size of the bathroom, and the walls are in good condition, then maybe simply a coat of paint on the walls and cabinets is all you need.
* If structural changes are in your plans, hire a contractor who will send someone in to check on the integrity of the walls, plumbing, joists, electric and flooring.
* Consider water and energy saving fixtures: low-flow faucets and toilets that work with less water will keep your home “greener”.
* Look into new counter surfaces such as granite, marble and stone. They are attractive and will last for decades. Typically, you don’t need to buy much of these products to finish a bathroom and your money will be well spent.
* To save money, think about refinishing tubs and sinks. Sometimes, just a patch here and there is all you need to make your bathroom sparkle like new.
* Change your floors. Nothing makes a bathroom look so outdated as a grungy, dull floor. Tile is the perennial favorite but you should also look at laminate flooring as a warm, inexpensive alternative. If budget is a consideration, take a look at the new linoleum products that mimic tile and wood, or those that come in unique patterns to match any décor.

Enjoy your “new” bathroom!
