Bathroom Renovation talk

It all begins with an idea. What about a bathroom renovation? Some of our customers have us out with intentions of having their bathroom renovated and the first question is where do we start? Then what's involved? In this blog we will cover the basics and a little more to give you an idea as to what to expect. The best way to efficiently carry out your facelift to your bathroom. No one will argue that walking into a clean and fresh new bathroom at the end of the day will make you feel amazing!

Starting point, you can contact your plumber or a general contractor if you have one. Often, we can refer other trades to help guide you and as you know referrals are great! Spend some time getting ideas about lay outs, bathroom magazines or jumping on the net can help you brainstorm for ideas. Pick out your Plumbing fixtures, depending on your budget J&L Plumbing can advise you which plumbing products to go with and which ones not to go with. You may also want to get ideas about Mirrors, lighting layout, tiles, shower designs etc... We always advise that our customers take a trip to a bathroom warehouse, even if you don’t buy anything from there, it’s a great way to help visualize. Again, depending on your budget, you may want to take a look at the type of fixtures and have ready a general idea of specifications, most days products will have specifications online, this will help your trades with accurate pricing, and it help with co-ordination.
