Question 2

In what order should I remodel a bathroom?

Accepted Answer

When remodelling a bathroom, the order you should follow depends on the complexity of the project and the budget.

Following this it will be time for your professional to install any new fixtures. Repair a leaky faucet, install a new sink, shower stall, or tub. Then your professional will take care of the finishing details like mirrors, and towel racks. After this either it’s time to tidy up and add your amenities. Gather your towels and soap dishes to add the finishing touch.

Question 4

How long does it take to remodel a bathroom?

Accepted Answer

The duration of a remodelling project depends on the bathroom size, materials needed, fixtures and features, and the kind of project. If you're looking to change the painting of your bathroom, it will take a few days, but if your project involves a complete remodel, it could take several weeks.

As a general timeline bathroom remodelling projects take around 2-6 weeks. This includes getting rid of old paint, fixtures, walls, ceilings, and installing new ones. In some cases, you may have to install new plumbing, accessories, and change the shower or bathtub as well.

Sometimes things can pop up which could extend the bathroom remodelling timeline as well. For instance, there may be a delay in acquiring the necessary materials. In some cases, you may need additional electrical or plumbing work to bring an older bathroom up to date as well.

To help the project roll as smoothly as possible ensure you create a timeline with the bathroom remodeller ahead of time. This will help to create a great starting point and ensure you're both on the same page.
