OUR BATHROOM REMODELING EXPERIENCE
Love,
Bill & Stacey Reich
HELPFUL TIPS FOR REMODELING YOUR BATHROOM SPACE
THINGS THAT WE DID
- Find A Great Contractor: Our Contractor, Gary Colt, charges $50.00 per hour. His motto - "We Can Do Anything!" He truly was able to do everything we needed to have done. The best part is that he lives right around the corner. Find a contractor that you trust!!!
- Look On Line For Deals: We found many of the things we needed for our bathroom on line. We also had a place in town that our contractor dealt with, and they matched the prices and sometimes gave us a discount for the things we found on line that we liked. Keep in mind shipping & handling charges when ordering things.
- Plan On Going Over Budget: WOW - when you start remodeling there are often times things that you can do in other areas of the house while in the midst of your remodel. We had our bathroom floor opened up and found that this was a perfect time to install recessed lighting in the dining room below. We also found that leaving access panels to our water valves in the bathroom for the toilets and washer & dryer was a great idea. This will help if we ever have a problem later on because we won't have to tear out any of our walls. We also took our walk-in closet and turned it into a new Laundry Room. We then took the old Laundry Room and made it into a new closet for me with sets of drawers and a counter area.

WHY IS JOHN316 MY USER NAME?
JOHN 3:16
- "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him, should not perish, but have everlasting life."
WOW - this verse says it all! God was willing to give His only Son to die on the cross for our sins, so that each of us would have the opportunity to accept Jesus into our hearts & accept the free gift of salvation. We just have to ask Him! If we ask Him & believe with all our hearts - He promises us a home with Him in heaven when we die. It's so easy that even a child can accept this gift. If you're reading this & accept Jesus into your heart - please sign my guestbook & let me know!
God Bless You!
Much Love - Stacey
