Bathrooms are put through their paces daily and suffer a lot of wear and tear due to excessive amounts of moisture and heat. Moisture and heat can often affect materials on a structural and visual level, making any bathroom issues quite apparent if left unrepaired. Despite its size, the bathroom is often the most renovated space in any home.

Before taking any action, it is necessary to check certain parts of your bathroom. This will help you to set out your budget and a general plan for any renovations you decide to execute. Once this preliminary step has been taken, you can begin to make a list of priorities based on what affects you the most from day to day.

Paint:  While it doesn’t always resist moisture, certain types of paint have now been optimized to be more suitable in hot and humid conditions. These painted surfaces are easier to clean than other paint options and therefore it is advised to use paint that is optimized for usage within a bathroom.

Floor: Could the floor of your bathroom use some updating? Take a look around the bathtub and/or shower. Cracks need to be repaired as quickly as they’re discovered and before any water gets in. Once more water has the chance to permeate the crack, it can cause further and deeper cracking. Another aspect to watch for, besides cracks, is the grout between the tiles and if it has become discoloured and needs replacing. A good inspection, on a regular basis, is essential to maintaining the best floors.

Cabinets: Are your cabinets overflowing because they’re so full? Are your linens kept in the bathroom? Do you need more storage space? If small spaces are well organized, you can find other storage solutions like shelves or baskets.

Bath, shower, toilet, and plumbing: It is important to look out for mould, any cracks and the overall quality of enamel plumbing surfaces to ensure. Take note of the water flow to make sure your plumbing is in good working order, this way it’s one less thing to update. If the water is running poorly then this may indicate a potential blockage that needs to be cleared.

If you decide to act, be aware that while renovating your bathroom can be expensive, it is also a significant investment in many cases. Therefore, it is important to consult and stay within your budget as much as possible, because costs add up easily during renovations. Remember while the renovation works can prove costly, over the long run the work done will increase the resale value of your property.

We suggest that you consider the option of paying slightly more for higher quality materials that have more durability and a longer warranty. We also advise contacting certified professional contractors for any work to be carried out.
