Revamping the bathroom this winter

They say that the two most important rooms in a house are the bathroom and kitchen - as both are integral to your home's atmosphere and monetary value.

And while it's vital to keep up with maintenance and renovation work around your home to ensure it retains value, making a few decorative changes here and there can also bring new life into a room.

Tackling some DIY bathroom work is a great project for the winter and easy enough with a bit of know-how.

Replacing your existing floor with modern ceramic tiles will revamp your bathroom - giving it a fresh look while also boosting your home's value.

Once you have completed the task of removing the existing floor, you can start with the new foundation - you will need a fibre cement board for this.

You can cut the board to size with a razor knife and once this is done, screw it to the floor for a stable base.

There are a huge range of tiles on the market, so it is a good idea to choose a style that complements the rest of your bathroom decor.

When laying your tiles, start in the centre of the room and move outwards - this will ensure you don't end up backed in a corner.
