Despite the fact that the bathroom is usually the smallest room in the apartment, its renovation requires significant amounts of money.
If you are not ready to spend all your savings on equipping a bathroom, listen to the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, designer Yulia Tychino : she told us what you can refuse and thereby save a lot.
Combination with a bathroom
There are several advantages to a combined bathroom: for example, the usable area of the room will increase, and you will have space for a washing machine and dryer.
But there are also disadvantages: you won’t be able to demolish the wall without getting permission from the relevant authorities, and this process (as well as the demolition itself) is long and expensive. In addition, think about whether this option will be convenient for you and your household: while one of you is taking a shower, the others won’t be able to get to the toilet.
Plumbing with additional functions
Who among us has not been attracted by the idea of getting a bathtub with hydromassage? If you were stopped from buying only by the limited amount on your card, rejoice, because such plumbing has plenty of disadvantages. Firstly, this type of massage is not suitable for everyone, secondly, the procedure is quite noisy, which is fraught with inconvenience not only for yourself, but also for other family members, and thirdly, the nozzles need regular and thorough cleaning.
So why not buy a regular bathtub? Not only is it cheaper, but it is also more practical than a Jacuzzi.
New bath
In continuation of the above: it is even better to think carefully: do you need a new bathtub at all? If you are satisfied with the shape, size and functionality of the one you already have, it would be wiser to restore it rather than buy a new one.
Mosaic
This type of finishing really looks expensive, luxurious and prestigious, but it also has a corresponding price. Add the cost of installation and you will understand that laying the mosaic will cost you a pretty penny.
If you are not ready to give up the desired design, at least reduce its area, limiting yourself, for example, to a niche with open shelves.
