Space Planning

The most daunting aspect of bathroom remodeling is what lingers behind the existing walls and built-in connections. When the old bath shower tub is removed and the wall is covered with mildew. The problem is likely to be poor ventilation. Plumbing and wiring are the critical aspects behind the spaces in remodeling projects. Leaky plumbing can cause molding and ceiling destruction. The placement of the toilet, tub, and sink will depend on where the existing plumbing was done. 

A review of how space is used and whether the outlets are located in a convenient place is essential for wiring. Splurge outlets should be placed at a safe distance from fixtures like tubs and showers. 

You can also check on the codes needed by light and fan. You should also choose water-tight fixtures as you plan in your remodeling project for wetness in the bathroom.
