The bathroom is one room in the house where you can accomplish a lot with $1,000. Here are four updates and upgrades that cost less than 10 Ben Franklins, but can leave you feeling like a million bucks when you step into your new bath.
Redo walls and floors
The key to bringing this job in under $1,000 is to do the work yourself. The actual materials - paint for the walls and tile, stone or vinyl for the floor - can be purchased for a relatively low cost. By doing the work yourself, you avoid high labor charges.
Switch out the shower door
Replacing a plain shower door with one that features a design, pattern or frosting can add personal flair to a bathroom. Manufacturers like Sterling offer a variety of shower doors that are both beautiful and functional.
Swap out the shower
enclosure
Replacing the shower enclosure can give the room a whole new look. Products like Sterling Ensemble Curve shower enclosures are sized to fit standard 5-foot bath alcove spaces. Replacing a tub with an enclosure makes for a spacious, luxurious showering experience.
Update fixtures
Few bathroom upgrades have a greater impact on efficiency and beauty the way changing fixtures can. Whether you opt for a low-flow showerhead or a high-efficiency toilet, replacing older fixtures can update the look of a bathroom and yield long-term savings on utility bills.
