If you are remodeling your home with a view to selling the property, you will find a bathroom remodel one of the most sensible, high ROI investments. Buyers are usually willing to pay more for a Wichita, Kansas area home with luxurious, fully out fitted bathrooms. A bathroom remodel can be as simple as changing the tiles, sink or tub or as extensive as adding a whole new bathroom. It's easy to get carried away while in the midst of a bathroom renovation, purely because of the sheer variety of fittings, fixtures and accessories out there. For instance, if you are only looking at a small bath tub remodeling project, you could easily find your budget sky rocketing as you fill your tiny space with the latest water massage system-incorporated tub. Always have a bath remodel plan before you hire a contractor.
Besides your tub, your bath shower is the most prominent fixture in the bath, and therefore, you should choose the right kind of shower after careful planning. A newly reinstalled shower at a different point, perhaps close to a source of natural light can put your new shower firmly under the spotlight. The newest craze that is hitting the bathroom shower remodel industry like a jet of cold water, is the stationary dual shower head system. Here, a single water line is connected to two shower heads that allow you double the amount of water from two separate angles. This ensures a rejuvenating shower experience that allows you to enjoy blasts of deliciously warm water all over. These heads can be adjusted to direct the water jet stream at any part of a body.
Installing a new bath tub as part of your bath remodeling can give you great value for money. Home buyers will look for at least one bathroom with the tub included, and if you can have an expensive tub like a luxury whirlpool tub or an antique tub, you will find that it enhances the interest in your home. Bath tubs are available in a variety of materials these days. Light weight materials like acrylic or enamel steel are not just more affordable, but also easy to install. However, if you insist on a cast iron tub as part of your bath tub remodeling, remember that your bath floors may have to be strengthened or buttressed before any installation can take place. If your budget allows, consider a whirlpool hydro massage system that takes the tub to a whole new level. In these hectic times, people look for luxury features in bathrooms that allow them to enjoy a spa like atmosphere right in their home without the need to visit a professional spa. This makes a whirlpool tub a high ROI bath feature.

Major remodel. Home built in the 1940s 2,500 square ft. Old wood shingle roof needs to be completely replaced, planning on either composite or slate-like shingles. The layout of the home/wall configuration needs to be reworked. Kitchen and bathroom needs work. Would like med-higher class appliances (doesn't need to be state of the art) and quality countertop, and economical on the wood cabinetry. Budget $100,000 to $150,000. Can it be done on budget in 3 months time?
