How do I design a bathroom remodel on a budget?

• <div><p>Bathroom remodels are pricey projects, but there are some things you can do to help reduce costs. These include the following steps:</p><ul><li><p>Purchase your own <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/metal-plating-can-update-your-bathroom-fixtures.htm">bathroom fixtures</a>, hardware, and other materials to avoid upcharges and delivery costs</p></li><li><p>Avoid moving fixtures and opt to replace them instead</p></li><li><p>DIY easier parts of the remodel, like painting or installing light fixtures</p></li><li><p>Remodel in the spring, which tends to be a lower-demand time of the year</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: How long does a DIY bathroom remodel take?

• <div><p>How <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-does-take-remodel-bathroom.htm">long it takes to remodel a bathroom</a> yourself depends on the size of the bathroom, the scope of the project, your skill levels, and how much free time you have. If all you&rsquo;re doing is giving the room a fresh coat of paint, you can be done and dusted in a couple of days. A large DIY bathroom remodel takes two weeks to a month.</p></div>

Q: Is a walk-in shower better?

• <div><p>Walk-in showers aren&rsquo;t necessarily better. It depends on your circumstances. On the one hand, they&rsquo;re more accessible&mdash;especially for people who use a wheelchair. They also take up less space than bathtubs and are ideal for small bathrooms. On the other hand, some families may need a bathtub to bathe young children and pets. </p></div>

Q: How much does a bathroom remodel increase home value?

• <div><p>A bathroom remodel will <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/remodeling-projects-highest-roi.htm">increase your home&rsquo;s value</a>, offering about a <b>60%</b> ROI. It can also greatly raise your day-to-day satisfaction. You can spend less time looking at dated tiling or unclogging an old shower drain and more time soaking in a spacious tub or getting ready in front of a heated mirror that doesn&rsquo;t steam up while you&rsquo;re in the shower.</p></div>

Q: Does replacing a bathtub with a shower devalue your house?

• <div><p>In many cases, yes, replacing a bathtub with a shower will lower a house's value. Prospective homebuyers, especially families with small children, tend to want at least one bathtub in a home. If you only have one bathroom, it's wise not to remove the tub. If you want the best of both worlds, and your bathroom layout allows for it, consider installing a freestanding bathtub as well as a standalone shower.</p></div>

Repaired my leaking main Second floor bathroom drain piping. Whoever did the original repair/ install obviously wasn’t a pro. Probably a child it was so bad. Mitch did a great repair and not one leak.
