Bathroom Remodeling Ideas. So, you’ve decided that it’s time to remodel your bathroom?  There is always going to be a certain amount of planning that goes into remodeling a bathroom.  Here, we are going to give you a few tips for making your bathroom a functional, stylish room, and something that will meet your price range.  Gainesville Restoration and Remodeling has skilled, experienced staff to call on for all your bathroom remodeling project needs.

Bathroom Remodeling Ideas

Bathroom Remodeling Ideas

First, let’s talk floors.  If you are looking for a floor that is easy to sweep and mop; porcelain or glazed tiles are going to be perfect for you.  You want to avoid porous stones (such as limestone).  They tend to absorb drips and will become stained over time.  For non-slip floors, you will want to choose tiles with textured surfaces, matte finishes, or sand-containing glazes.

When using caulk make sure to go for an acrylic or hybrid formula.  This way you can remove it without using harsh chemicals.  Since caulk that contains mildewcide offers more long-term protection.  Wiring is another thing you will want to change at the time of remodel.  After long periods of time the wiring in your bathroom has been used and abused by endless hours of; curling irons, blow dryers, electric toothbrushes, and any other household appliance that we use on a daily basis.  Swapping the GFCI outlets isn’t enough.  Change the wiring with a 20 AMP circuit and make sure to install plenty of outlets.

Bathroom Remodeling Ideas

Now let’s discuss style and trends.  Storage space is always a great thing to keep in mind when planning a remodel.  One of the most utilizing bathroom sinks will be a vanity with sink.  While it takes up the most room, it has a great look and is great for storage.  Therefore, an average bathroom vanity has about 15 cubic feet of storage.  It normally has 10 inches of countertop on each side.  Make sure to leave enough space to open the cabinet doors and drawers.  Then there is the vessel sink.  The sink bowl sits on top of the counter with this sink.  The workspace is smaller than that of a vanity sink.  It is also tougher to keep clean.

Here’s a little cheat-sheet for you when choosing a countertop.  Natural stone would be best for the homeowners that vigorously take care of their high-end bathrooms.  Granite is highly stain and scratch resistant. It also looks beautiful and classy.  While these can be a bit pricier, you’ll get more for your buck.  Marble and limestone must be sealed regularly (due to their porous surfaces).  Abrasive surfaces can show water marks.

Mold Detection and Remediation. Mold growth in your home or business is a problem that requires immediate attention and correction. Without proper removal, mold can spread throughout your home. Mold can lead to serious health problems if not properly removed.

Mold Detection and Remediation

Mold Detection and Remediation

Since mold can grow anywhere there is adequate moisture or a water problem. Excess moisture causes mold to grow on building materials and furnishings eventually damaging them. Once established, mold can be very invasive and dangerous. 

Mold can look like stains, discoloration, or a fuzzy growth. Therefore, it is most likely to grow in damp places such as kitchens, laundry rooms, basements, bathrooms and crawl spaces; because this is where the spores find the ideal conditions to grow. 

High cellulose surfaces such as fiberboard, drywall, paper, and paneling; when exposed to excess moisture, are prone to Black Mold growth. You should pay special attention to dark green or black stains; as this is the most toxic type of mold which can cause respiratory problems. Also, Black Mold should only be removed by a reputable licensed mold contractor as soon as noticed.

Furthermore, slow leaks behind walls also result in mold growth but it is not readily visible. So, even if you don’t see any evident signs of mold growth, worsening of allergy symptoms, health problems; a musty or earthy smell could all be signs of mold growth in your home. 

If you are concerned about the possibility of its presence in your house or have actual evidence of mold growth; call one of our Certified Technicians to schedule a mold inspection.  You can reach Gainesville Restoration at (352) 372-1221 or Ocala Restoration at (352) 622-5277 for 24-hour emergency service. You can also send us an email with your questions or concerns.

High Cost of Water Leaks. Your water bill might be trying to tell you something. Have you experienced a sudden unexplained increase in your water bill recently? An undetected water leak can cost you more than you might think. Whether you are a homeowner or business owner, water leak detection should be part of your property maintenance schedule. Left undetected, a water leak can lead to more serious problems such as flooding. The damage caused by flooding can be much more expensive to repair than addressing, and repairing the source of the water leak in the first place.

High Cost of Water Leaks

High Cost of Water Leaks

Is an undetected water leak costing you on a monthly basis?

Because water pipes can crack and burst over time. Therefore, even a properly designed and installed plumbing system will corrode, rust and collapse with age. Also, plumbing materials, weather, and soil conditions all play a part in the life of the plumbing.   

Since, in most cases, water leaks may be undetectable by normal sight or hearing.

Clean Sweep
It can be easy to ignore chores, but it’s important to clean your home regularly to reduce allergens and irritants. A thorough dusting with a damp cloth instead of a feather duster; is a great way to keep your air clean. But don’t forget to suck it up, mop it up, and keep it out! Vacuuming and then mopping will get rid of any particles that are lingering on your floors. In addition,  leaving a large floor mat at every door will reduce the amount of pesticides and other pollutants; that come in via the dirt on your shoes.

Be Proactive

If condensation is collecting around window sills, walls or pipes, dry it quickly. Increasing ventilation and air movement in moist rooms is the best way to prevent mold growth. Because in most cases, if a damp area is dried within 48 hours of a leak or spill; mold will not grow. Turn on a fan or open a window while or immediately after; showering, cooking, and dishwashing will also help prevent mold growth.
