Whether it is a new
tub or shower, or a whole new look, a bathroom renovation Singapore specialists can help
you imagine the possibilities of your bathroom you will love.

Setting a renovation budget

renovation Singapore. You will have a clearer sense of what you can spend on
tile, fixtures, and extras.

on how many items you are changing in the bathroom your contractor will have to
go through all the same steps irrespective whether the bathroom is small or
larger. Planning time is also crucial for those with only one bathroom in
their house as they will have to make arrangements where to take a shower and
use the toilet while the bathroom is under renovation.

problem such as water damage, structural deficiencies in the floor framing, not
properly vented plumbing, old corroded plumbing and non-waterproof tile shower
or tub surrounds.
4. Design style and functionality
Design should work
hand in hand with functionality, so consider who will use the bathroom and how.
Fixing a shower screen may help the bathroom look stylish and functional.

No renovation is
complete without re-modelling or repairing fixtures and features. This will
completely change the look of your bathroom.
6. Cabinets, storage and shelving
Planning cabinets,
shelving and storing solutions is a challenge.
They need to be functional and be able to accommodate all your stuff
while keeping everything easily reachable.
7. Walls and flooring
Virtually any
material can be used to surface walls and floors in the bathroom as long as
it’s waterproof, either naturally or by means of an impervious finish, but make
sure your bathroom flooring must be durable and slip-resistance.
8. Ventilation
