Cheat your way to a new bathroom look – this mum's makeover cost just £33.50!

Does the thought of how much it might cost put you off of updating your bathroom? Maybe you're longing to incorporate the bathroom trends for 2023 but  don't know where to start? If so, don't worry as there are some ways around it, and with some clever planning and research, you can keep costs to a minimum. Taking on the decorating yourself, for example, can save a fortune and you'll have the benefit of feeling proud of your efforts afterwards. 

That's exactly what this mum decided to do when she was quoted £7,500 for a new bathroom. ‘The quote included a new suite, including a shower,' says Victoria Taylor from Redcar. 'This was a complete job, including tiling and flooring, etc, but it was outside of our budget, so I decided to go down the DIY route instead.'
