{"product_id":"bathroom-remodel-planner-pdf","title":"Bathroom Remodel Planner PDF","description":"\u003cp\u003ePlan the bathroom before you demo it — or pay for it twice. This 12-page printable Bathroom Remodel Planner walks you through scope, budget, waterproofing, layout, materials, and build sequence in the order a working Florida handyman actually runs the job.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInside you'll find: • Budget tiers with realistic Central Florida ranges — Refresh ($2,500–$6,000), Mid-Range ($9,000–$18,000), and Full Gut ($18,000–$35,000+) — plus what moves the number most: moving drains on a slab, tile scope, and frameless glass • A line-item budget worksheet covering demo, plumbing, waterproofing, tile, tub\/shower, vanity, fixtures, electrical\/GFCI, ventilation, paint, and permits — with a 15–20% contingency built in, not added as an afterthought • The waterproofing page that proves expertise: backer board vs. drywall behind tile, sheet vs. liquid membrane, sloped pan and 24-hour flood test, and why tile and grout are NOT waterproof — plus why Florida mold makes shortcuts fail faster here • Layout \u0026amp; measurement record: toilet 12-inch rough-in (and the 10-inch trap in older homes), shower sizes, valve heights, vanity plumbing, and the keep-vs-move plumbing cost traps that add $1,500–$4,000 per moved drain • Material comparisons with honest trade-offs: tile vs. fiberglass surround vs. solid-surface panels, vanity and counter choices, and flooring for wet rooms (porcelain tile vs. LVP vs. sheet vinyl — and why laminate doesn't belong in a full bath) • Ventilation \u0026amp; moisture done right: CFM sizing (1 CFM per sq ft, minimum 50), sones ratings, ducting outside — never into the attic — and GFCI\/electrical safety for wet locations • Contractor vs. DIY — the honest line, Florida permit notes (what needs one and what doesn't), licensed-trade rules, and a payment schedule that never pays in full up front • The correct timeline sequence (demo → rough → waterproof → tile → fixtures → glass), a change-order log, a decisions record, and a final walk-through checklist with leak tests before final payment\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSample of the thinking inside: keeping fixtures where they are is the single biggest money-saver in a bathroom; a fan ducted into the attic just moves the mold upstairs; and if a contractor says \"we don't need membrane, the tile seals it\" — find another contractor. Trade-grade, specific, and zero fluff.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePerfect for homeowners planning a first remodel, anyone getting contractor quotes (walk in knowing the numbers), and DIYers who want a pro's sequence and checklists before they open a wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a digital download.
