Eco-Friendly Bathroom Remodeling Tips

If your powder room or bathroom is feeling lackluster, it may be time to call in a bathroom remodeler. The professionals at Tom’s Best Quality Remodeling in Schaumburg, IL, are happy to take on a small bathroom remodeling project on its own or as part of a larger home remodeling. Not only do we deliver a beautifully finished product with excellent customer service, we’re also happy to work with you to make your bathroom more eco-friendly.

1) You can significantly reduce water consumption by upgrading your plumbing fixtures. Install green fixtures such as:

• Low-flow and touchless faucets
• Low-flow showerheads
• Dual-flush or low-flow toilets

2) Cut your energy consumption by:

• Switching to more energy-efficient light bulbs such as LEDs, halogens, or CFLs
• Changing light fixtures to modern energy-efficient models
• Installing an occupancy sensor that will automatically turn lights on and off
• Replacing old, drafty windows

3) Reduce waste and pollution by:

• Refinishing a salvaged piece of furniture and modifying it to create a stunning vanity
• Selecting materials such as tiles which contain recycled materials
• Choosing flooring and countertop materials that are sustainably sourced or produced
• Selecting final accessories such as towels, curtains, and rugs made of organic or natural fibers

It can take a little bit more research and time to ensure that your bathroom remodeling project is environmentally friendly, but it’s well worth the effort. Plus, when you have a team of professionals offering design services and top-quality craftsmanship, you are far from being on your own. In the end, you’ll have a stunning renovated bathroom, as well as peace of mind, knowing you’ve made well-thought-out choices.
