Bathroom renovation mistakes that drive you crazy: useless and impractical

Having gathered your strength and decided to renovate your bathroom, you need to try to avoid making fatal mistakes.

In this case, you will have to spend time and effort, and the result will be far from practical. The masters named two options for finishing the premises, which can soon drive you crazy.

Ceiling

A bathroom in an apartment building is the very case when all decorative elements should be practical and not be afraid of dampness. You don’t need to study statistics to understand where neighbors most often flood each other: if not in the kitchen, then in the bathroom. Therefore, finishing the ceiling with plasterboard is not an option at all.

In addition, finishing the ceiling with plasterboard is considered an expensive and complicated task. Considering that after a leak the structure will quickly become unusable, the mere thought that you will have to do the bathroom renovation again, even at someone else's expense, can drive you crazy.

Walls

New residents often sin by wanting to cover up the installation, as well as the niche in which the entire plumbing system is laid, with tiles. Another example of useless and impractical repairs.

Firstly, problems may arise with the plumbing itself, and then it will simply be impossible to fix the breakdown without dismantling part of the wall.

Secondly, problems with the water supply may arise, and then it will be necessary to provide specialists with access to the pipes sewn into the niche.

A much more democratic option is to use MDF panels or other lightweight materials for decoration, which are cheaper and do not create unnecessary problems during dismantling.
