Budget Bathroom Renovation Ideas
1. Reduce Tiles
Tiles cost a lot, particularly when you hire a contractor to lay the tiles out for you.
To cut costs, reduce the number of tiles and concentrate on fundamental areas like the floor (instead of the shower floor and interior shower stall walls).
Otherwise, you could tile up a portion of the wall horizontally and paint the remainder.
If you have set your heart set on tile pattern that is aesthetic and costly, complement, surround these costly tiles with cheaper, basic tiles.
This not only accentuates the aesthetic tiles but saves you high costs of using many pricey tiles.
2. Spend less on Counter Tops
A common practice is to spend excessively on granite countertops.
Because the bathroom counter is relatively small, the investment is often minimal compared to what you would spend on kitchen counters, for instance.
So how do you reduce costs? First, consider colour.
Neutral colours like tan, brown, and light beige sell better, which means they cost more. To cut costs, contemplate and select a wider colour palette.
Another method to reduce spending on granite countertops is to buy a slab containing flaws.
The more visible the flaws, the cheaper the price will be.
Remember that your sink basin will occupy a wide expanse, so if flaws are located where the sink or taps are these errors are hidden.
3. Paint
If you do not have a big budget, then repainting will be the cheapest and, perhaps, the most effective way to give your bathroom a makeover.
Here is a word of caution, though. It is going to take more time than you think.
Why? Your bathroom may be the smallest room in the house, but you’re going to have to paint slowly and gently around the window, the tub or shower, the sink, the mirror, the toilet, the switch plates, the wall corners, and the floor.
This takes time, and huge amounts of paint materials.
Another thing to consider is the moisture.
Since mold and mildew grow easily in toilets, and humidity and temperature fluctuate, it is best to invest in premium paint with a satin finish.
You may also want to go over the ceiling with a special bathroom paint that helps resist the growth of mold.
4. Update Fixtures
Next, look at small details. You can update light fixtures, water taps, towel racks, and drawer pulls for a relatively small expenditure.
These items may seem insignificant but updating them can rejuvenate your toilet aesthetically.
5. Redo, do not Buy New
Replacing your old tub or shower is going to cost you a large amount.
Instead, have it professionally refurbished, which costs less.
However, do not try this with sink and shower fixtures as it costs more to refinish them than to replace them.
Refinishing these fixtures is costlier because few do so unless they have vintage pieces, and contractors who offer this service often charge high.
6. Buy Used
You can also save money on fixtures, even toilets and showers, if you purchase them second hand. Browse sites like Carousell and Qoo10 for bargains.
7. Go Green with Renovations
When renovating your bathroom, do not forget to redesign with the environment in mind.
Low-flow toilets, sinks, and shower heads will not only help you conserve water, but they will also save costs.
Moreover, water-saving shower heads and taps often cost the same, if not less, than traditional ones.
Buying used or recycled materials is also good for the environment.

Plan Your Toilet Renovation Design
Before you do any toilet renovation yourself, you should settle on a new design that fits your vision, as well as your skill set.
There are so many ways to approach a toilet makeover, ranging from minimal to luxurious.
Here are a few design elements you fundamentally need to settle before you start your toilet renovation:
Colour scheme: Do you adore red hues? Or perhaps tinges of blue fit the rest of your design?
Plan to make sure your new bathroom tiles do not clash with your wall shades of paint.
New fixtures: Will you replace or renovate your shower/tub? Are you installing a new sink?
Replacing one or both fixtures will add to your project time and budget.
Storage spaces: Where will you keep your towels and toiletries post-renovation?
If you are removing a closet to expand the room, make sure you have shelving or cabinets to make up for the lost storage space in your toilet.
Location of utilities: Do you know where the electrical wiring and plumbing pipes are located?
Make sure you have accurate measurements for each, so you do not require expensive repairs.
Trends in Toilet Renovation in Singapore:
Most homeowners in Singapore purchase resale HDBs or condos.
This means that you will want to renovate your toilet, for hygiene reasons.
Usually, in old toilets, the water pipes are concealed behind the walls and the first step to renovating this space is new water pipework to prevent any leakages.
Waterproofing the floor tiles is the next and particularly important step.
Once you consult an expert for toilet renovation costs, they will likely give you a list of things that you should renovate in your toilet, depending on the condition of your toilet.
If you truly do not want to splurge, you must know the essential must fixes. When making renovation decisions, prioritize renovations that require minimal maintenance.
Usually, when you opt for toilet renovations, it includes fundamentals like:
Hacking
Plumbing work for new piping
New tile finish
Waterproofing works
Shower screen
New bath fixture
Sample costs of Toilet Renovation in Singapore:
Cost of renovating a toilet:
Light: $550 – $6,550

Extensive: $8,600 – $35,500
On average you will spend about $4,000-$7,000 on a complete renovation project. Here is an estimation of a basic toilet renovation cost:
To hack a bathroom about $1,200-$1,500
Plumbing about $1,200-$1,500
Tilling about $3,000-$4,000
