Summary: The most important factor you need to considered prior to any renovation project is the cost involved and your budget. This is normally the amount which you can spend comfortably. Confirm the price of the products and material required in the renovation process and save at least twenty percent of your budget in reserves for unforeseen expenses, which are quite common in such projects.
Also include the cost of the labor, electrician and the plumber. You
can save some money here by involving yourself in the project and
accomplishing some part of the work, as it can be quite expensive to
hire people. You can consider doing your own paints, or redecorate the
bathrooms and lay down tiles. This will not only save your money but
also take the creative man out of you.
A number of online websites are available to help you calculate the pricing of the products and materials for the renovation of your bathroom. They have different pages and sections which you can visit for references to various redesigning options like remaking the walls or bathtub addition, etc. The on-site calculation tools help you calculate the total cost in just minutes, based on the place you live, bathroom sizes, the work required and the amount of raw material needed.
Another way would be to get in touch with people who have renovated their bathrooms in the past. You can reach such people either online or meet them in person. They may be able to warn you about the hidden costs involved or any problem they encountered during the project. It is also suggested to get quotes from a few contractors and also go through the mean cost in your nation for bathroom renovating projects. Do not fear purchasing any supplies if your work is being handled by a qualified professional, as it may control the cost involved.
You would also have to sum up the total cost including material like the sink, which may average between $60 and $100, but the cost may rise with quality. Cheap vinyl flooring would cost you approximately $3 per foot, whereas the ceramic tiles may cost as much s to three times the cost of the vinyl tiles. The normal bathtubs and the whirlpool bathtubs will cost a hundred and thousand dollars respectively. The cost of the showers would be anywhere $300 and $2,000.in case of toilets the cost may greatly vary as the conventional toilets would cost around two hundred dollars whereas designed or fancy toilets may cost up to $1500.
The paint and the wallpaper will be priced around $50-$60. In addition few other accessories may cost you some more money. So, it is always suggested that you shop wisely to keep within your budget. If needed at a later point of time, you can add or subtract a few things here and there, as you would be experienced by then to handle such renovation projects.
