Adding Water Lines
When remodeling to add space, it is important to consider the water lines that should be put into place. You may need to increase your water lines by ½ inch to ¾ inch. It is important to consider the source of the water and the plumbing. Is the plumbing intact? Make sure the faucets won’t leak.
Additionally, you must plan for the future. Sure, Roman tubs may look nice now, but as you age, will they still be convenient for you? You can’t just think of yourself now; you have to think of the future as well. The plumbing system in your new home has to fit directly with what you want or else you will be having to call the handyman twice a week, and that will be a bother to you and your family.
Adding a Bathroom
Adding a bathroom when remodeling to add space is another concern. There are plenty of things to consider here, and it must be well thought out.
> What kind of materials do you want to use?
> Do you want removable shower heads?
> Would you prefer bath tubs or just plain showers?
> Do you have a specific design for the sink in mind? Porcelain tiles are a huge favorite nowadays, so maybe you should consider that.
Again, there are many options out there, so do your shopping at your local home improvement store before deciding on your perfect bathroom so you won’t have any regrets. Bathrooms, after all, are sanctuaries for a lot of people nowadays. There is nothing wrong with crafting a perfect one for yourself and your family.
