10 THINGS YOUR CONTRACTOR WON'T TELL YOU

You just spent $30,000 on a bathroom renovation. So why does something feel slightly... off? As a real estate broker, I walk through hundreds of homes every year. And the most common bathroom design mistakes I see aren't code violations or shoddy workmanship — they are design oversights that happen in the gap between construction and your daily life. Here is the truth: Your contractor is a builder, not a mind reader. If you don't explicitly tell them how you want the fine details handled, they will default to whatever is standard, fastest, or most cost-effective. Today I'm revealing 10 crucial bathroom design details your contractor won't warn you about — so you can avoid a daily maintenance nightmare and protect your home's equity. 👇 Have you ever lived with one of these bathroom fails?
