Q: Can you add a bathroom to an unfinished basement?

• <div><p>Yes, you can add a bathroom to an unfinished basement, but you&rsquo;ll want to take proper precautions if doing so. As with any bathroom addition, you&rsquo;ll need to make sure that it&rsquo;s approved by local building authorities first. With unfinished basements, you especially need to keep an eye on proper ventilation practices.</p></div>

Q: Is home renovation less expensive during a recession?

• <div><p>Home renovation is often less expensive during a recession. Contractors may be willing to give you a deal on labor costs because they&rsquo;re looking for more work during slow economic times. However, waiting to do a necessary home remodeling project while trying to predict the ebbs and flows of the national economy is overthinking the timing of the project. It&rsquo;s easier to focus on determining when is the best time of the year to remodel.</p></div>

Q: What adds more value, a bedroom or a bathroom?

• <div><p>Adding a bedroom can increase a home&rsquo;s value more than adding a bathroom, but it varies with factors like the location, age, and condition of the home. However, remember that you might also need to add a bathroom to the home, depending on how many bedrooms and bathrooms you currently have. </p></div>

Q: Do I need a permit to demo my bathroom?

• <div><p>Whether you need a permit to demo your bathroom depends on the project scope and local regulations. Major structural changes require a building permit, like pulling down a load-bearing wall or removing lead paint or asbestos from an old bathroom. If you&rsquo;re relocating plumbing, you might need permission to cap off the existing water and sewer lines. Because requirements vary by municipality, if there&rsquo;s any doubt, always check local building department rules. </p></div>

Q: Are bathroom fans required to meet building code?

• <div><p>Every municipality has its own codes. But generally speaking, all bathrooms must have some ventilation, whether it's a fan or a window. Check your local building codes before doing any bathroom fan installation to make sure you are meeting the code requirements. A reputable electrician or <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/bathroom-fan-installation/">bathroom fan installer</a> will be able to answer this question.</p></div>

Our job included wallpaper removal, fixing plaster on walls, painting walls and wood trim in our kitchen and dining room. Scott estimated the job would take two weeks to complete and it was. It really helped update the rooms.
