Bathroom remodeling and house deco ideas? If you’re buying an old building, check whether it’s listed, as this will severely limit the changes you can make, plus as a new owner you’re legally liable for rectifying any past illegal works, often at huge expense. Generally, unless you have a bottomless budget, avoid: properties built to a substandard quality, such as some cheaper Victorian terraces built without firebreak party walls in lofts and with worryingly thin single brick rear additions (which cause problems with mortgage lenders), those that have suffered botched alterations such as chimney breasts and internal walls illegally removed without Building Regulations’ consent.
Ask yourself these questions as you start to plan your bathroom additions and subtractions: How might your family grow and change? – Do you plan to have children? Will the children you have now fly the nest soon? What about elderly parents—might they come to stay? Who’s likely to use this bathroom the most now and in the near future? – If it’s small children, consider these safety tips. If it’s older adults, consider these. Do you think you’ll sell in the future? – If so, do some research into the bathroom changes homebuyers find most attractive. Incorporating some into your bathroom remodel now will save you time and money in the future.
This is a relatively new trend among buyers and one that you should keep in mind firmly when thinking about ways to increase your home’s value. Bigger is not better anymore. It is how the space functions that matter more now. Open floor plans that have the option of flexible living spaces are the most desirable right now. The two major aspects of your house that you can focus on for this are the attic and the basement. You can remodel them from anywhere in the range of $10,000 to $50,000, depending on your changes. This might seem like a lot, but the ROI that it will provide you by increasing the value of your home is worth it. There will be plenty of buyers lined up once they hear the terms granny flats, flex rooms, and upstairs laundry room. This can increase the value of your home by 5-8%.

Do you have what it takes to do a tiled shower? If you’re considering replacing your drop-in shower with a tiled version, you’re going to have to do your homework. With mudded tiled showers, the need to waterproof is real and it’s not always easy. There are a lot of steps involved, so research and preparation is key. Do you want to spend the money on a shower door? If you’re yearning for a fancy-schamncy glass shower door, but don’t have the budget at the moment or want to reallocate those funds for other important things, like a heated toilet seat, keep in mind that because glass shower doors are standard-sized, you can always add one later. Stick with a colorful shower curtain for a while while you save up for a shower door.
Realize that quality is never an accident. Quality is never an accident: it is planned for. Great companies prioritize for quality; they never expect their staff members to self train; they never assume employees will know the latest tile installation standards. Rather, they take control of the expectation for consistent and high quality by developing systems for ongoing training and education. They reward improved performance, pass on compliments, say thank you for doing things right and generally encourage good attitudes. They focus on what matters to customers.
