You\u2019re going to spend a lot of time in the bathroom<\/a>. If you don\u2019t have your phone or don\u2019t have a magazine, then you\u2019ll be staring at your bathroom, so you want it to look good. It also has to stand up to the test of time. Whether it\u2019s as simple as finding a bathroom vanity, or a complete head-to-toe remodel, there are ways to make sure you getting the best bang for your buck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Use Quality Flooring<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Flooring is extremely important in the bathroom because it\u2019s going to take the most abuse out of everything. You\u2019re going to walk on it, splash water on it, set a toilet and bathtub on top of it and a million other little abuses that will take their toll. Inexpensive flooring, like linoleum, might seem like an attractive and cost effective measure, but it can\u2019t take the abuse. If water should get up under it, then mold can grow. The glue that binds the linoleum can break down and it can begin to become loose from the floor. This all translates to fixing and more remodeling in the near future. Flooring, such as ceramic tile and stone, can take the impact of falling shampoo bottles and, if done properly, can keep water from seeping under the flooring as well. It will cost a little more in the short term, but it can last for years and years. Stone and ceramic also look great, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spend Some Time on the Bathtub<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There is nothing worse than having a beautiful bathroom and a hideous bathtub that doesn\u2019t fit your needs. The bathtub is often an afterthought, but it\u2019s an important aspect of bathroom remodeling. The first question you should ask is, \u201cWhat am I going to be doing in it?\u201d Is it just a place to stand while you take a shower, or will you be spending some quality time in a bubble bath? If you plan on it just being for showers, then you\u2019ll want a tub that\u2019s not too deep and is easy to get into and out of without hassle. If you want to spend a lot of time soaking, then get a curved bathtub that\u2019s deep and can hold plenty of water. When you\u2019re shopping, take the time to sit in the tub and see how it feels. You\u2019ll be sitting in it for several years. People are often enamored with the idea of a whirlpool bathtub, but be careful. There are a lot of moving parts and pipes to install, and when something begins to leak or breaks, the repair bills can be sky high.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
