Choosing Flooring

1. Consider Your Style

Set a limit, have a plan, and remember your budget throughout every step of the project. You want to be aware of your budget in every material decision you make - from countertops to appliances to the flooring. Additions can creep up on you and sticking to your budget throughout can help you down the line.

2. Consider Your Budget

Corner bathtubs have a triangular shape and can typically fit up to two people. They take up less space than most other tubs, sitting comfortably in the corner of your bathroom. Unfortunately, they do take longer to fill up due to their spacious size. If you are considering a Corner bathtub for your remodel, you will need a spacious corner with hookups for plumbing.

3. Consider the Surrounding Area

If the flooring is one of the last things you have left to decide on, let the surrounding area guide you. It is important to make sure the space feels cohesive and allowing the surrounding elements to shine helps everything fall into place - especially if you are working with an open concept. When you consider your style and scheme, the process of creating a complete room rather than a series of pieces gets much easier.

4. Select Flooring Based on Room Function

One of the best aids in choosing flooring is by thinking about the function of the room, and how the flooring will impact that room's activities. For example, you wouldn't want carpet in your bathroom considering the amount of water that is used in this room. The bathroom should have a durable floor, such as tile or linoleum. Use this same idea in every room to understand the functionality and purpose!
