Bathroom Remodel Schedule

In today’s post-pandemic world there are a lot of supply chain issues and shipping delays. This means it takes longer to do renovations. Therefore, having a realistic timeline for the project is key. You can save time and money by going the DIY route and doing as much as possible by yourself. We love the look of this painted tile floor!

Add a Walk-in Shower

A walk-in shower with glass really makes a bathroom feel luxurious. This is also a great option for a small bathroom remodel that doesn’t have room for a bathtub. Add a ledge at the bottom to waterproof the stall.
