Step 5: Easy-to-Install Flooring: Like the wall tiles, the flooring was in pretty solid shape but far from stylish. So with the help of a gorgeous line of linoleum tiles I gave the bathroom floor a major upgrade. There are some really huge advantages to working with linoleum. For starters, installing it is super easy, and you need only a utility knife to cut it and a little contact cement to hold it in place. Photo by Manuel Rodriguez

Our goal on this project was to make the main floor of this lovely early 20th century home in a popular Vancouver neighborhood work for a growing family of four. We opened up the space, both literally and aesthetically, with windows and skylights, an efficient layout, some carefully selected furniture pieces and a soft colour palette that lends a light and playful feel to the space. Our clients can hardly believe that their once small, dark, uncomfortable main floor has become a bright, functional and beautiful space where they can now comfortably host friends and hang out as a family.

Step 8: Infusing Personality and Style: To finish things off, a couple of sleek new hooks were added to the wall for hanging towels or robes, near the linen closet with a bright painted red door and interior shelves. By far the best part of the entire process was welcoming my friends to their new and improved bathroom! Photo by Manuel Rodriguez

The Bathroom BEFORE: When I first saw the space this summer I knew it had potential. By focusing on a few simple upgrades, I was able to transform the space without the bathroom ever being out of commission or breaking the bank. See how this contractor-free renovation went down in a matter of days with a little planning and some creative problem-solving. Photo by Manuel Rodriguez

Step 1: Out with the Old: The most costly and time-consuming part of a bathroom renovation is relocating plumbing and electrical fixtures. The demo involved can leave the space unusable for weeks, with walls that need repair and tiles that need replacing. So I decided to leave the existing bathroom layout in place but replace the sink and tub fixtures. After some careful measuring to make sure everything would fit, I ordered a new sink and faucet to replace the existing boxy cabinet and dated fixture. Photo by Manuel Rodriguez
