Completing Bathroom Renovations in Perth

Completing Bathroom Renovations in Perth

Renovating your own bathroom may seem like a doable task for the average person with thanks to the many DIY shows that are currently across our TV’s. Truth be told, it can be done, but there are many things you should consider when completing home bathroom renovations in Perth.


Things to Consider Before you Begin Renovating your Bathroom


What is your plan? We recommend that you sit down and work out the plans for your bathroom. Are you renovating the entire bathroom or wanting to just replace the sink? What are the necessary items in your bathroom that you need? A double vanity? A large mirror? A bigger shower? Do you need a bath? Deciding what you need will then make it easier when purchasing the items from your local store and this also means that you won’t be wasting your money on unnecessary items. What is your theme? Choosing neutral tones in your bathroom such as; white tones, light greys or light browns will make your bathroom appear bigger than it is and as neutral tones group well with many other shades, this will also help styling other smaller finishing touches toward the end of your bathroom renovation.

When choosing a tradesperson to complete your bathroom renovations in Perth, don’t necessarily chose the tradesperson who is the cheapest. Each tradesperson may specialise in different areas, for example, one tradesperson may have many skills, not just plumbing, and so do your research first to find out how to make your money work for you. Remember each tradesperson has a call out fee, so asking all of the questions at the one time will save you money in the long run. If you have a question, write it down. That way, when the tradesperson is working on your bathroom you can ask him while he is there, rather than later on when he has left.

Ask the professionals for advice. There are plenty of tradespeople out there who have worked on many, if not hundreds of bathrooms, so if you aren’t sure - ask them! Another way to seek professional advice is by asking the staff at your local hardware or plumbing stores. These staff members know their products and quite often have many years of experience, so there is a high chance they will be able to help you out!

Finally, leave it to the experts. If you aren’t sure, don’t try and do it yourself. You will save money and time in the long run if you leave It to the professional tradespeople to do the job, after all that’s their area of expertise.
