5 Simple New Jersey Bathroom Upgrades
Reviving an old bathroom is a great idea and doesn’t need to be difficult. A few simple upgrades will go a long way when it comes to updating a bathroom and it can make a world of difference. People hear the word “remodel” or “update” and cringe, thinking of all the work and hassle. Some of these upgrades are easy DIY projects that will take you a weekend to finish. Others will need a professional to do but can be accomplished in a few short hours. On the whole, these projects are fairly inexpensive and add a fresh feeling to your home. Don’t sweat the complicated projects though, Team Electric Plumbing and Air is there to make these projects go smoothly.
1. Paint
This one is easy for any homeowner to do themselves. A new coat of paint can brighten up a room that has seemed lifeless. Finding a paint and primer with anti-fungal chemicals will help keep the mold away. This is essential in a room so prone to moisture. So go pick a fresh, new color and help your bathroom go from drab to fab!
2. Fixtures
Old fixtures can really date a bathroom. Installing new fixtures brings your bathroom into this decade. There are many color choices and styles to pick from. Brushed silver, copper, and pewter are just a few of the popular looks available today. If you need help installing these fixtures, our plumbing experts at Team Electric Plumbing and Air are right there for you.
3. Tub and/or shower
If the tub and shower is showing signs of wear or the very cheapest, lowest quality items were installed in the first place, it’s time for a change. If you’re handy with tools, you might be able to install a drop in tub or shower yourself but the plumbing could be tricky. That’s where we come in. Team Electric Plumbing and Air can do the finishing touches on a tub/shower install and make sure the plumbing is working correctly. You do not want to take chances with leaks. Water damage can do serious harm to your home. Pipes and leaks are our forte so let us help you with this upgrade.
4. Tile
Whether it’s the floor, backsplash or shower/tub walls, old tiles can look really outdated. After a number of years, grouting can also chip and stain. Replacing tile is a little more intense but many homeowners try the DIY approach to save money. If you’re not handy, never fear, a handyman or contractor could do the job easily and without too much effort.
