Our bathroom renovation process typically includes the following steps:

• Consultation: We’ll meet with you to discuss your vision, needs, and budget.
• Design: We’ll create a detailed design plan and 3D rendering of your new bathroom.
• Demolition: We’ll carefully remove your existing bathroom fixtures and materials.
• Construction: We’ll handle all aspects of the construction process, including plumbing, electrical, tiling, and finishing.
• Final Inspection: We’ll conduct a thorough inspection to ensure your complete satisfaction with your new bathroom.

We understand that your home is your sanctuary, and we treat it with the utmost respect during renovations. We take extensive measures to protect your property throughout the entire process, ensuring a clean and safe work environment from start to finish.

Here’s how we prepare your home:

• Floor Protection: We use Guardia self-adhesive protective matting rolls along all pathways leading from the bathroom to the exit. These mats are designed to provide superior protection for your floors and prevent any damage from foot traffic or debris.
• Furniture and Railing Coverage: We use lightweight polymer sheeting to protect nearby surfaces. To secure this sheeting, we use painter’s tape that leaves no residue after removal, ensuring your furniture and railings remain in pristine condition.
• Dust Containment Measures: To maintain air quality and minimize mess, we use advanced dust control systems, including self-adhesive zipper walls and HEPA-filtered Wet/Dry vacuums. These systems create a sealed barrier around the work area, preventing dust and debris from spreading to other parts of your home.
• Workspace Isolation: We create designated work areas and seal off the renovation zone to keep the rest of your home undisturbed.
• Debris Management: Our team ensures that all debris and waste are promptly removed, leaving your home clean and tidy at the end of each workday.

Our meticulous approach and commitment to customer satisfaction ensure that your home is protected and your renovation experience is as smooth as possible.

At Magic Reno, we understand that proper waterproofing is crucial for a long-lasting, problem-free bathroom. We use a multi-layered approach and high-quality materials to ensure your bathroom remains leak-free and beautiful for years to come.

Our Waterproofing Process (typically takes 1-2 days):

• Floor Preparation: We ensure the subfloor is level to guarantee proper drainage and prevent water damage to tiles and grout.
• Waterproofing Application: We apply a waterproofing membrane over the entire bathroom floor, install moisture-resistant drywall on the ceiling, and use waterproof panels in the shower/tub area.
• Shower Installation (if applicable): We install the shower pan, curb, and drain with a strong adhesive mortar for a watertight seal.
• Sealing and Reinforcing: We meticulously seal all corners, joints, and connections with waterproofing tape and pre-fabricated corners. We then apply two coats of a high-quality waterproofing membrane (RedGard or ARDEX S 1-K) to all seams and fastening points to create a robust, long-lasting barrier against moisture.

Great question! We understand that staying within budget is important. While our typical projects start at $11,900, there are definitely ways you can reduce costs if you’re willing to put in a little extra effort. Here’s how you can potentially save on your bathroom renovation:

3. Embrace the DIY Spirit (Do It Yourself):
   • Protecting Your Property: Get a head start by prepping your property for the renovation yourself. Using materials you might already have on hand, protect your floors, walls, stairs, and furniture. This could save you around $300 on labor and materials.
   • Demolition: One of the biggest areas for savings is taking on the demolition yourself. This involves removing old fixtures, tiles, cabinets, and anything else that needs to go. This can significantly reduce labor costs. Important: Safety first! Make sure you have the right tools, understand the process, and know what you’re doing. If you’re unsure about anything, especially when it involves electricity or plumbing, it’s always best to call in a professional. Potential savings: approximately $300.
   • Painting: If your walls are in good shape, a fresh coat of moisture-resistant paint can work wonders. Doing the painting yourself could save you around $200.
   • Trash Removal: Hauling away the construction debris yourself can save you roughly $500.
4. Be Smart About Material Choices:
   • Consider plastic panels instead of tiles: These panels are a great option for wet areas like shower stalls and bathtub surrounds. You can expect labor costs to be 30-50% lower, resulting in potential savings of $200-$600.
   • Faucets: Opt for simple, yet reliable faucet models. Skipping extra features like thermostats or bidet sprays can save you $100-$300 or more.
   • Furniture: Instead of expensive solid wood vanities, look for options made from MDF or particleboard. You can often find great deals at sales or discount furniture stores, potentially saving you hundreds of dollars.
5. Plan Wisely to Minimize Costs:
   • Keep Existing Plumbing: One of the biggest cost factors is moving plumbing fixtures. Sticking with your current layout can save you a significant amount on both labor and materials.
   • Avoid Complex Designs: Keep it simple! Elaborate designs like podiums, niches, or multi-level ceilings add to the cost. Simpler designs are more budget-friendly.
   • Bathtub Instead of Shower Stall: Installing a bathtub is generally $1,600 cheaper than building a custom shower stall, as it eliminates the need for a separate shower pan and glass partitions.
6. Hunt for Bargains:
   • Compare Prices: Don’t buy the first thing you see. Take your time to compare prices at different stores, both online and in person.
   • Sales and Promotions: Keep an eye out for sales and promotions at building supply stores. You can often snag quality materials at significant discounts.

5. Consider Working with Independent Contractors:
   • Explore Your Options: You might find that working with independent, licensed, and insured contractors can be more cost-effective than hiring a large renovation company. Get recommendations from friends or search online platforms, but always do your due diligence.
   • Due Diligence is Key: Thoroughly vet any contractor you consider. Check their licensing, insurance, and online reviews. Ask for a portfolio of their past work, and don’t hesitate to ask for references. Always get a written contract, even when working with an independent contractor.

Important Considerations:

• Quality Matters: While saving money is great, don’t sacrifice quality. Cutting corners with cheap materials or unskilled labor can lead to costly problems and repairs down the road. Remember, a poorly done renovation can end up costing you more in the long run. A cheap, unlicensed contractor might seem like a good deal initially, but it can lead to major headaches and expenses later on.

• Safety First: Your safety is paramount. Electrical and plumbing work should always be handled by licensed professionals.

• Know Your Limits: Be realistic about your skills and available time. If a DIY task seems too daunting, it’s better to hire a professional to ensure it’s done correctly.

Ultimately, you can reduce costs significantly by careful planning, smart material selection, and possibly doing some of the work yourself.
