Money - Saving Tips

When remodeling your bathroom, you can save dollars in the end by planning ahead. Go through the design process first and choose everything you want, from fixtures, tiles, cabinets to lighting. This will help you define your budget and prevent hasty (which can translate to costly) decisions in the thick of the remodeling process.
Decrease the cost of your bathroom, kitchen or basement remodeling project through your choose of products. Do some legwork and shop for the best prices to determine if you can get the same look for less.
Consider how labor extensive some design choices can be. Be creative and keep an open mind. In the word of remodeling there’s always multiple ways to solve a problem. Contractors are versed in discussing options.
Stay inside your home’s footprint. Adding square footage to your home increases your project cost significantly. Consider borrowing space from a neighboring room or even a linen closet. You can grab back lost storage by finding small niches between wall studs for shelving.
Opt to reglaze your tub instead replacing it, if it’s in a relatively good condition. This can save you more than half of a tub replacement.
