Things To Consider Before Going in For Bathroom Remodeling

Your bathroom without any doubt is one of the most important rooms in your home. Each one of us spends a significant amount of time in our bathroom for taking bath and other such purposes. Hence we not only like our bathroom to be clean but we also would like to have the best possible looks and appearances. Our bathroom size may also need a revisited as our family members increase in numbers and also as they grow up. Hence, choosing the right Oklahoma window replacement and bathroom remodeling professionals is very important. The main objective of any bathroom remodeling should focus on improving the overall functionality. It could lead to better and improved storage, improvements in drainage and lighting systems, and more importantly, your bathroom should lead to more longevity and should be able to withstand the test of time. We are happy to share a few of the important things that we should keep in mind when it comes to remodeling the bathroom.

Plumbing

Try and increase the size of the plumbing drainage circumference. We would be surprised to note that most residential plumbing work is made of 1.1/2 inch pipes for drains. Quite a bit of hair and other waste materials goes down that drain. The larger the size of the drain, the lesser will be the chances of clogging. It would be better to go in for 2-inch pipes if you are planning an upgrade or remodeling of your bathroom. The cost differential between 1.1/2 inch and 2-inch plumbing pipes is very negligible and you should not mind spending this extra amount. The drain in your shower should also be increased to 2 inches. Further, if your bathroom is located in a place where winter temperatures go below the freezing point, you need to ensure that you do not route your water supply lines through exterior walls.

 Lighting

If would also be better to go in for recessed light fixtures on your ceilings. These will go a long way in brightening up the room. It would be a good idea to have a couple of them installed in your shower along with the right shower trim. Go in for a dimmer switch so that the mood of the bathroom can be adjusted as you like. It would not be a bad idea to go in for a mirror in the bathroom and also choose either functional lighting or aesthetic lighting. You must be spending quite a bit of time shaving or applying makeup. In such situations, bright light fixtures should be properly placed in helping you to see what you are doing from a close-up position.

 Medicine Cabinets

We often forget to provide space for a medicine cabinet. This could help save space over a shallow vanity. The additional cost of having a medicine cabinet will not be too much but it will go a long way in improving the overall look of your bathroom. If you do not want it, then please be sure that there is enough space in the bathroom for keeping your medicines.

 Conclusion

To conclude, there are many things we must take into account before deciding on bathroom remodeling in Oklahoma City. It should be thought through very carefully and you must refrain from the temptation of hurrying the process of bathroom remodeling.
