Completely remodeling a bathroom typically costs thousands of dollars, but a cost effective update can be accomplished for a few or less. The following simple updates usually can be performed by the average homeowner in one weekend.
Paint
A coat of paint will create a dramatic change in a bathroom, as well as create a fresh, clean look. One gallon will cover an average size bathroom.
Wallpaper Border
Add a coordinating wallpaper border around the top or center of the bathroom. Measure the linear footage of your walls to determine how much to buy.
Shower
The simplest and cheapest way to update your shower is with a bright, new shower curtain. Also consider replacing the shower curtain with a glass shower door. The cost is substantially more, however. Expect to pay a minimum cost of several hundred dollars for a basic sliding door from a discount home improvement center.
Lighting
Replace the old lighting with modern fixtures or install new lighting above your mirror or vanity.
Faucets
New sink and shower faucets improve the look as well as the functionality of your bathroom. Shop around, as prices vary greatly depending on the manufacturer and style.
