What makes most bathroom renovations so costly and time-consuming?
It's the shower and the bath.
In the world of bathroom renovation, the word "remedial" refers to any job, big or small, that's required to install a bath or a shower. The term "making good" refers to any process that's there to make the new bathroom safe, appealing, and user-friendly.
Most bathroom renovation projects involve a LOT of remedial work, and a LOT of making good. Existing tiles and grout has to be stripped, water lines have to be connected, pipes have to be buried, and fixtures need to be installed.
On top of that, new tiles have to be put in place, which means more grouting and more sealant, both of which will need a lot of time to dry.
But in any case, it's easy to see how, with all of the above going on, the costs, the time, and the mess can quickly pile up.
Yet if you choose a shower cubicle instead of a traditional bath or shower enclosure, all of this can be avoided.
