5. How Do I Save Time And Money on My Project?

We know we need to have a budget and consider timetables. Here are 5 things you can do yourself that save your budget and your schedule.

DIY Demo

If you decide to hire a contractor, a great way to save money is to do the demolition yourself. This means your contractor can come in and get to work right away. They’ll be working for fewer hours, which means you’ll pay for less labor.

Order Early

Have supplies ready and waiting for your contractor. Proactively planning for materials and supplies will save you money by avoiding order issues and schedule setbacks. You’ll also know the exact cost of all materials before you start so you can stay on budget.

Understand Wants vs. Needs

If you are really looking to do a shower conversion on a budget, you may be able to scale back now while setting yourself up for the bathroom you want long-term. Options may include using a shower curtain instead of a door, skipping the fancy fixtures, using a portable shower chair instead of a built-in bench, or sticking with your non-detachable shower head.

Keep Plumbing Intact

Whether you hire a contractor or DIY, leaving the plumbing intact is an excellent way to save money. This is savings on additional materials required to make any changes as well as the labor to do it. If your priority is to stay within budget, the less plumbing you mess with, the better.

Excellent job. The team actually arrived 20 minutes early and walked me through the entire process of the work they would be doing before they started and kept me updated on things taking place in my shower. Very professional team. I highly recommend Five Star Bath Solutions.

Five star bath solutions did a great job on our master bathroom. Mike was meticulous and made sure everything was completed correctly. He fixed problems that were left by our home builder and made sure our bathroom was beautiful. I would definitely do business with them again.

Five star bath solutions got our job done quickly and efficiently. I’d recommend them. They have great work ethic as well as awesome materials. We got several quoted for our shower replacement and they were the best price and the most upfront.
