Why You Need a Bathroom Designer
Saturday, July 02, 2016
Let’s face it: not all of us are endowed with innate interior
design ability. In fact, most of us would find it nearly impossible to come up
with something that looks good on paper, let alone in real life. Yet we all want
beautiful homes and beautiful bathrooms. It’s a big dilemma. So what should we
do?
First of all, it should be noted that designing a bathroom isn’t
a job that should be taken lightly. It’s a significant commitment of time and money. And second of all, if it goes wrong, it’ll be a
massive disappointment.
If there was ever any time to call in the professionals, this
was it. There're so many reasons why you need a bathroom designer. Here are just
a few.
You’ll Get Their Attention To Detail
Designers tend to be deeply intuitive people. They’re able to
almost feel their way to great designs, without really knowing exactly how they
got there. They’re excellent at taking a design that’s been scribbled on a piece
of paper and translating it into a 3D vision. This is all made possible by their
ability to compose a scene. If you renovate your bathroom yourself, you’ll probably be left with
something that looks a bit amateur and boring. But if you let a designer do it,
they’ll bring things together in ways you didn’t expect.
Designers are also particularly good at keeping up to date with
the latest bathroom trends. Being immersed in the industry, you’d expect as
much. Often new trends are driven by new features and details. And so it’s these
that they’ll be able to bring to you, well ahead of the bathroom retailers.
They Will Bargain Hard On Your Behalf
Renovating a bathroom is a big project. So it’s very likely that
you’ll have to deal with a whole range of contractors. Everyone from decorators
to plumbers. In big projects, it’s important to have somebody on your side who
knows what they’re doing.
This is another instance in which bathroom designers are
helpful. They know the ins-and-outs of the renovation process. And so they know
where the work of one contractor ends and another begins. That means that they
know if a particular contractor isn’t pulling their weight. And they’ll be able
to fight your corner in these situations.
They Will Save You Time
Having somebody on your side with a lot of expertise can prove
to be very helpful in saving you time. Professional designers will know which
materials are appropriate to use in your bathroom. And they will know whether
one technology will be faster than another. Instead of learning all this by
trial and error, you’ll have the hand of experience guiding the whole process.
What’s more, regulations on building bathrooms is becoming ever
more stringent. If planners find out that your bathroom doesn’t meet basic
standards, it may have to be torn down. And nobody wants that. Bathroom
designers know about building code requirements.
The codes themselves are typically quite involved. It often
requires a professional touch to get a bathroom redesign off the ground.
Designers are far more able to submit designs to examiners that are compliant
than rank amateurs. They have up to date knowledge of how rules and regulations
have changed and what can and can’t be done.
They Understand The Language
All professions have their own unique language. And the same
goes for bathroom designers. They know the jargon required to translate a design
into practice. And they can guide you through what could otherwise be a steep
learning process.
What’s more, designers tend to have a sense of whether the
building process is going in the direction you want. As an amateur, you probably
won’t be able to tell until the work is finished. But designers will be able to
halt the renovation before any unwarranted changes are baked into the finished
product.
They Will Contact Their Own Trusted Professionals
Bathroom designers aren’t lone wolves. They’ll know a whole host of other tradespeople and professionals. As a result, they’ll know who you should and shouldn’t do business with based on experience. They may even be able to make recommendations on who should do what when it comes to the actual renovation stage. If you can, employ this network of skilled workers to your advantage and get the bathroom of your dreams.
