If you are ordering a bathroom renovation to a specialist or a company, check the previous reviews about the services they provide. All building materials necessary for the renovation should ideally be agreed with experts who knows what works in the best way and how much is needed.

Many companies even offer tailor-made shower trays that fits perfectly into the niche or space that we have at our disposal. Pay attention to details such as the side in which the shower door opens, the mirror that does not reflect the window, making it difficult to see whether the appropriate light intensity, adjusted to the size of the room.

It is a good idea to prepare earlier for the bathroom renovation because it facilitates further work.
