Bathroom Mold – How Does It Get There?

“How does mold grow in the bathroom?” you may ask. It’s a good question. Bathrooms are typically filled with inorganic surfaces (think tile, linoleum and porcelain) which are not normally surfaces that mold can grow on. On top of that, if you’re like most people, you do a decent job keeping your bathroom clean. And considering that many bathroom cleaning products are so noxious that they require the user to wear gloves while using them, how can mold stand up to such an assault week after week and just keep growing?

Updating Your Bathroom

We all know that a bathroom is one of the most private rooms in the home, but it is also one of the most important. Not only are they a primary source room for human beings, but they reflect the personality and exceptionality of the owner. Sometimes the perfect bathroom already exists when we move into a house, but sometimes they need a little bit of help or updating. Bathtubs, for example, are one of the most used parts of the house, and for this reason, they can start to show their wear. After years of use, they can start to look old and dingy. Purchasing a new bathtub and getting it installed, however, can be very costly. For a cost-effective solution, many people opt for bath resurfacing when considering remodeling their bathrooms. This option can save you hundreds of dollars, and give your bathroom the new look that it deserves.

Bathroom Tips – Primers, Paints, and Wall Coverings

Primers

I used to be indifferent to primers and usually bought the cheapest one available, figuring that it was going to be covered by paint anyway. But primers can make a lot of difference in the quality of the final finish, and the difference in price between the cheap ones and the expensive ones is minimal, especially when a good primer can sometimes save you an extra coat of paint. For woodwork, I don’t know of a better primer than Benjamin Moore’s Underbody. Available in both an alkyd and a latex formula, this primer has a lot of body for smoothing out imperfections, and it’s sandable. I use B-I-N, a fast-drying shellac-based primer, for spot-priming knots and stains or for priming end grain in the field. B-I-N also makes a water-based primer that I’ve used in both interior and exterior applications and that is good at hiding stains.
