2. Timelines

A clear timeline sets realistic expectations for clients for their bathroom remodel. Setting a timeline helps the project stay on track and within budget. Embarking on a bathroom remodel is a complex process that requires careful planning and minimizing disruptions to daily living. A timeline is set to streamline the step-by-step process of a bathroom remodel and help homeowners make informed decisions. Remodeling will likely hamper daily bathroom use at home. The time required to complete a bathroom remodel depends on several factors, including the bathroom's size, the scope of work, and the bathroom remodeler's skill level. Most clients feel anxious about how long a remodel might take or what issues could arise when they do not understand the process. A great remodeling contractor, such as Modern Handymen & Remodel, manages their clients' stress and expectations by laying out a clear timeline from planning to demolition, culminating in a dream bathroom space transformation.

Step-by-step: What to expect each week?

Week 1: Preparation and Initial Construction

The first few days of the first week are the planning stage of your bathroom remodeling. During this stage, we can discuss our construction schedule, site protection plan, and any safety concerns you should be aware of. Preparing your bathroom for a remodel can involve demolition of your existing tiles, flooring, ceiling, cabinets, or vanity counter. It is essential to protect your home from potential damage due to demolition or construction. Protect other parts of your home by laying down protective floor coverings and temporary plastic walls. Initial construction involves the installation of rough-in features for plumbing, electrical, and framing systems. Modern Handymen & Remodel ensures that everything is in place through inspections before the team closes any wall, ceiling, or floor, thereby avoiding any rework.

Week 2: Begin Finish Carpentry

Laying down the groundwork for your new bathroom usually begins in the second week. The team will set the subfloor and waterproof barriers on the toilet. Ensuring that these materials are properly installed saves you money and time, as costly repair works can result from flooring and waterproofing failures. You can also begin your drywall repairs this week. If your bathroom remodel design involves installing an entirely new wall, this can require a longer time to complete.

Week 3: Tile & Other Major Finishes

Most bathrooms feature tiled floors and walls, which we can start to finish in the third week. Generally, tileworks take 5-7 days to complete. Tiling requires mastery to finish within a shorter time with quality output. Larger tiles are easier and faster to install than smaller mosaic tiles. Our team at Modern Handymen & Remodel has mastered the craft of tiling over the years, saving our clients both time and money.

Week 4: Final Finishes Completion

In the fourth week, you can now start to see your bathroom look like a real bathroom once again. Plumbers and electricians complete the rough-in work and install all the necessary fixtures to achieve a complete transformation. If you want a brand-new vanity counter, the team can complete its installation within the fourth week, adding to the overall character of your bathroom space. Once the job reaches a point of substantial completion, we can have a punch list of the completed bathroom remodel. Once our team completes all the punch list items, your new bathroom will be ready to use!
