5 Bathroom Remodeling Ideas that Save Money 

Henry Warner • June 7, 2016

The bathroom is among the household areas that incur very huge bills. This may be in terms of water bills, electricity bills and even maintenance costs. With this in mind, it is necessary that home owners seek ways of cutting down these costs. Most people tend to think that bathroom remodeling is only meant to improve the bathroom’s look but it can always be focused on both enhancing the bathroom’s appearance as well as cutting costs. Here are 5 great bathroom remodeling ideas that will save you from the huge bathroom bills.

(i) Improve natural lighting inside

Most bathrooms are positioned at very dark areas such that you will be required to always have bathroom lights on even during the day. This translates to huge electricity bills that could have otherwise been avoided by use of natural lighting. Through bathroom remodeling, the bathroom windows and layout may be adjusted to pave way for more lighting inside during the day. This will really save you a lot of money every month.

(ii) Go Green with Water Heaters

Most households use electricity to heat their water. This really incurs heavy electricity bills. With bathroom remodeling, you can choose to go green and install solar water heaters. These heaters use natural solar energy to heat water thus cushioning you from huge energy bills.


(iii) Focus on water efficient faucets

Most households have very inefficient water faucets that lead to lots of water wastage. Through bathroom remodeling, you can install faucet aerators to regulate water pressure. There are even faucets that you can install to regulate water pressure depending on your use. With such fixtures, you will save a lot of water and consequently, some few bucks.

(iv) Install a low flow toilet

Toilet flushing is a real water guzzler in the bathroom. On average, ordinary toilets use 6 gallons for every flush. However, with low flow toilets, you can flush using an average of 2 gallons. This makes low flow toilets very helpful when doing a bathroom remodeling with the aim of cutting costs.


(v)Ventilate to reduce moisture

Ventilating your bathroom can also save you maintenance costs. This is because ineffective ventilation can breed moulds and mildew that can damage your walls and painting. The damage will spread and destroy the entire bathroom walls and paint. If you don’t realize the problem is moisture, you might end up spending a lot on renovations.


Even though most people think of bathroom remodeling as just a way of spicing up the appearance of bathrooms, it can also be aimed at saving costs. To get the best out of your bathroom remodeling, you need to get professional bathroom remodeling contractors who have the skills to give your bathroom the service it deserves and that is we are here.
