Transforming Your Bathroom: A PAS Approach to Renovation

Bathroom

Every apartment needs at least one bathroom for all purposes and very personal reasons as well. However, most house owners are not satisfied with the way their bathroom is designed and these sentiments are quite common. If you’re one of the many people who have been dreaming of a bathroom makeover, you are not alone. In fact, more than 60% of homeowners are not satisfied with their bathrooms. Let’s find out how to overcome this kind of change by using milestones PAS (Problem, Agitation, Solution) theory.

The Problem

The bathroom is usually the room that receives the least attention in a house. It can be more of a chore than a soothing experience because of old features, dim lighting, and small room size. As noted in one of the research studies, an average bathroom remodeling ranges from $10,000 to $30,000, and to some, this is a huge amount. Homeowners get the wrong perception of cost and might hencehewit from executing necessary adjustments, therefore, leaving them in a place which does not serve their purpose.

Some of these common problems include:

  • Insufficient storage: Most bathrooms do not have enough cupboard units, space for sanitary ware or towels or cleaning items which causes disorganization.
  • Old designs: The modern sinks and tiles that are as per the current trends can make a room attractive but in a few months, this may not be the case.
  • Uncomfortable layouts: Small space can not only get in the way of performing daily tasks but may also make one inefficient while working in that particular space.

These problems can become so annoying and create dissatisfaction which is not healthy for one’s appreciation of that particular place.

The Agitation

Now picture unfurling your morning routine in a bathroom that is cluttered and congested to the brim. Finding space for your belongings is a struggle and those old fittings are shocking to some given how long they have remained unchanged since the last renovation you made. This irritation experienced on a daily basis is simply adding stress to your day unnecessarily.

In addition to that, lack of or poorly designed bathroom can also greatly reduce the value of the property in case you wish to sell it at some point. Real estate specialists estimate that a bathroom well done remodel can give a return of investment of 70%. On the other hand, a poorly kept bathroom can dismiss prospective clients and this may cost you inflating your profits.

And the psychological aspect of having to live with a less than satisfactory bathroom can take its toll. After all, everyone is entitled to that personal space that suits their aspirations and requirements, but the very idea of approximating up to a thousand pounds worth of renovations can be somewhat discouraging.

The Solution

The excellent news in this case is that there is nothing that is changing the appearance of one’s bathroom that cannot be done. Here’s how to get to it:

Set a Realistic Budget

It is important to know how much one can comfortably spend from in the bank. First things first: establish the size of your purse.
