Updating Your Bathroom? Four Jobs to Leave to the Pros

Updating Your Bathroom? Four Jobs to Leave to the Pros

An updated and remodeled bathroom is considered one of the most desirable features of a high value home on the market. Because bathrooms see a great deal of daily use, they may show signs of wear and tear, as well as moisture damage that can make the room look untidy and out of date, so updating your bathroom may be a good investment if you plan on selling your home in the near future. Although some remodeling projects can be done by yourself, some tasks are best left to professionals, both because of the technical skills and the amount of time they require.

Wall or Floor Tile

Installing ceramic tile is both art and intensive labor. If you are removing old tile, there will be a significant mess and hours of hard muscle work, and that’s just getting rid of the old tile. Creating even, level, perfectly spaced tile surfaces requires exacting attention to detail. Although most people can do a pretty good job of installing tile themselves, a really great tile job that will last requires experience, time, and special tools. It’s a good idea to leave this task to those who have the experience to do it right. Although it will cost more, a professional tile installation will make a big difference in the appearance of the room and how well the materials wear over time.

Plumbing Repairs and Upgrades

A bathroom remodeling project is a good opportunity to ensure that the room’s plumbing is updated and functioning well. Older homes may have corrosion from years of use, pipe fittings may not be in good working order, and new faucets and shower heads may need installation. Consult with a reliable plumbing contractor to do a thorough inspection of your bathroom plumbing system and have him perform the repairs and upgrades needed for future years of use. You can do an internet search of “companies that offer 24 hours plumbing near me” to ensure you find a plumber that will help keep your plumbing system functioning well or help you solve a problem in the future.

Installing New Fixtures

Another area that can benefit from professional contractors is new fixture installations. A new glass shower enclosure can weigh hundreds of pounds and can be dangerous to try to install yourself. Tubs, toilets, vanities, and cabinets also require a certain amount of muscle and skill to install properly, meaning improper installation would be a waste of time and money. Leaving these tasks to a contractor will help you avoid injury and ensure the job is done properly. You will find the extra cost is well worth the time and trouble it would cost to do it yourself.

Structural Changes to the Room

If you have a structural change to your bathroom in mind, such as moving a wall or changing the configuration of the room, you should leave these weighty issues to a professional contractor. These changes may require the consideration of a number of critical factors that should be left in the hands of an experienced remodeling contractor. By leaving this job to professionals, you can save yourself the cost of expensive mistakes that can only mean more time and trouble to correct.

A bathroom remodeling project can mean a certain amount of disruption in your daily activities, but you can minimize the inconvenience with good planning and reliable professional help. The best way to achieve the bathroom remodel that you desire is to enlist the help of professionals in the above-mentioned areas. Professional help can prevent the wasted time, effort, and money that would have been expended if you had tried to do it yourself.
