Surprising Truth Behind 6 Major
Replacing windows
“It’s a lot of work and it’s expensive.”
A window can be mounted
in 3 to 4 hours
All the windows in your house
can be probably be changed in a
couple of days.
“it’s expensive”
You should always arm yourself with up-to-date pricing information and check with your
regional and local administrations to learn whether they
grant aid for window replacements.
Myth 1:
No. You have to take all the characteristics of the room into account. Windows should not be watertight if the room is too exposed to moisture and does not have good ventilation.
Condensation may appear on the outside of your windows, especially those that face north or receive little sun.
Myth 2: “Insulated windows prevent all
types of condensation, humidity, etc.”
Changing the Floor
“Changing a ceramic floor is a very laborious work.”
No. There are dovetailed floors that can be installed above your current floor without much work because the tiles fit together and do not require
any material to grip. In addition, you will save money ripping up the existing floor slabs.
Myth 3:
01
No. You can renew the look of your kitchen without touching the
furniture by removing your old countertop and installing a new one
that suits your tastes.
You might choose to coat your current countertop with micro-
cement instead, an on-trend move that many designers suggest.
Upgrading a kitchen countertop
“Putting in a new countertop means getting new kitchen furniture.”
Myth 4:
Renovating the bathroom
Myth 5:
No. There are hydro-massage columns with six jets starting at about $60 and installing them is very easy, just remove the faucet and connect to the
hydrants.
“Getting a spa is expensive.”
Myth 6:
“Changing the bathtub for a shower is too labor-intensive to be worthwhile.”
This project involves removing the bathtub, cleaning up any rubble left behind and installing a shower tray, which should only take about eight
hours.
You then need to let it dry for one full day.
That’s it!
