I’ve been trying to figure out how to plan a bathroom renovation without accidentally doubling my budget halfway through. I’m not aiming for anything fancy, just something clean and functional with a couple of nicer touches, but every time I talk to friends who’ve remodeled recently, they mention all these hidden costs that sneak up later. If anyone’s been through this and found a way to keep the spending under control while still ending up with a solid result, I’d really appreciate hearing how you approached it.
