Since you’ve been spending more time at home, you’ve probably noticed things which need a refresh, especially in that most-used room of the house: the bathroom.
Whether you’re an experienced DIY-er or novice fixer-upper, you may be putting off renovations that seem too tough to tackle.
The good news? There are plenty of little things you can do to revamp your bathroom that aren’t time-consuming, and don’t require a contractor. Triple master plumber, television host and licensed contractor Ed Del Grande draws from 30-plus years of experience to advise homeowners.
Del Grande recommends easy bathroom upgrades anyone can do in a day.
3. Toilet seats
New toilet seats are simple to swap out, including specialty seats featuring slow-closing hinges, to prevent that middle-of-the-night slamming sound, built-in air freshener systems, night lights — and even full bidet features.
For example, the Puretide manual bidet toilet seat makes it easy to add the freshness and assurance of personal cleansing to your existing toilet. With a sleek, low-profile seat design, Puretide provides the superior cleansing of a spray wand that’s fully adjustable in terms of position and water pressure. This manual bidet toilet seat requires no electricity or batteries, connecting to the toilet’s water supply line for a super easy installation.
4. Nigh-efficiently toilets (NET):
For the serious DIY-er, you could consider replacing the entire toilet. This change not only improves the look of your bathroom, but also saves on money and water, as many existing toilets are big water wasters.
Cut water bills by swapping your standard toilet with a new high-efficiency toilet (HET). HETs use less than 1.3 gallons per flush, and are designed to flush less water with more power. HETs fit the same connections as a standard toilet for a relatively uncomplicated install.
