Unfortunately, it is not always possible to spend large sums of money on repairs, especially in the context of constantly rising prices for building materials and craftsmen’s services.

For this reason, the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, designer Yulia Tychino , decided to compile a list of useful tips that will help you carry out a budget renovation while maintaining the quality and aesthetics of your interior.

Bathroom

You can significantly reduce the cost of renovating your bathroom by replacing expensive and difficult-to-maintain materials in non-wet areas with more practical and cheaper ones, such as wallpaper. In addition, you can always paint the walls.

Mirror with backlight

A great way to not only save money but also improve the proportions of the room is to use custom-made mirrors with processed edges. Instead of buying lamps, you can buy an LED strip in a special profile, which will cost at least 2-3 times less.

Split

Another piece of advice is to choose the right place to install the air conditioner. It is best if it is installed in a common family space, where the doors are open to allow cold air to enter. Place it as high as possible, close to the ceiling.
