Tips for Generating Sales in Bathroom Renovations

Tips for Generating Sales in Bathroom Renovations

If you want to convince the general public that their bathroom is need of a renovation, you must first give the potential client of sneak preview as to what could be. We all have a bathroom – some have more than one and many have three or more – so the potential for clients considering a bathroom renovation is huge.
A bathroom owner needs to get a preview of some examples of bathrooms that have been beautifully refurbished and refitted. Sometimes it is just a few examples of a redecoration that is needed, so taking images of the very best work you have done if all that is required for someone to say, “That’s how I want my bathroom to be, and look, all the right blue and yellow pastel colours are there too!”
But website owners can go one better than just taking several shots from different angles of a recently decorated bathroom; a 360-degree panoramic view is ideal to put on your website and there is a simple WordPress plug-in that will help you achieve this. After all, the tight space in a bathroom makes individual shots difficult for the viewer to comprehend the brilliance of your work and the finished product.
Whether a client is looking for a bathroom refit, a new kitchen or a timber floor put in, they will need some cast iron assurances. The customer needs to feel comfortable with the workmanship and guarantee of the job you are about to perform. Ask yourself whether you can provide good reviews from previous satisfied customers, whether you have a social networking page with many pictures, videos and comments from happy clients and if you can provide certificates of building standard work.
If you want a client to take on board work where their kitchen or lounge needs laminated timber flooring, then provide quality images on your web page of such designs. This allows the customer to know what they can expect before making that all-important decision to go ahead and buy.
Redesigning

It is worth knowing that a client has no real knowledge of design. The internet is awash with design tools which can help people design or decorate a room, be that a kitchen, dining room or bathroom. Useful links to renovation and design tools are a godsend to a customer, who may be struggling for great ideas about kitchen, bathroom and flooring designs.

Got a Flat Roof?

UK Flat Roofing
A flat roof construction is used extensively by small businesses, warehouses and schools as a tried and tested method of roofing protection. Because of the nature of the materials used in flat roofing becoming more dynamic over the course of the years, a flat roof construction tends to be more of a modern construction solution in the roofing industry.
There are five main types of materials used in the flat roofing industry in the U.K. Essentially, the flat roof has replaced centuries-old designs like thatched roofing and steep tiled roof designs that once graced architecture throughout the 16th century onwards. Flat roofing was never practical is years gone by as the materials used were never available or designed for such purpose as roof covering.
Once the materials for covering flat roofs were being improved and manufactured in great quantities, architects could change the way they designed roofing on all sorts of buildings. The buildings that benefit from a flat roof design tend to be commercial properties like small warehouses, too sheds, manufacturing plants, schools, hospitals and small factory centres.
The flat roof is also extensively used on supermarkets, office blocks, and modern flats. While most of us never get to see what it actually looks like on the top of a flat roof (particularly multi-storey units) those involved in maintaining and building flat roofs will tell you there are many different types of flat roof designs and materials used.

Staff and builders need training to be able to accurately position sheets of felt and nail down while working high up on roof tops that can be hazardous and inclement at any given time.

·         Fibreglass Roofing
Fibreglass roofing for flat roofs is strong, durable and fit for purpose. The robust nature of fibreglass makes this ideal as a roofing solution for warehouses, concert halls, school reception areas, offices, single storey structures and garages.
Glass reinforced plastic also comes under the banner of fibreglass roofing and roofers need to be well trained and experienced when fitting fibreglass onto rooftops as often the work needs to be completed quickly and under inclement weather conditions.
