What do you wish you had decided before your bathroom remodel started?

This might be a dumb question but did you guys have literally EVERYTHING picked before demo?

We’re getting pretty close to finalizing everything for our bathroom with our remodeling firm here in OC and they’ve walked us through the layout and all the little details, so I’m not exactly having to figure everything out myself. I just want to make sure I’m paying attention to the right things before I start saying yes to everything.

If you’ve already done a bathroom remodel, was there anything that looked completely fine on the plans or renders and then annoyed you once you actually started using the room?

Could be anything (shower placement, vanity height, storage, outlets, lighting, where towels ended up, whatever) Basically what would you double-check if you got to approve your bathroom all over again?

Pre-Fab Shower Enclosure Recommendations

1 Upvotes

Apologies in advance - I know there are a lot of threads about shower enclosures on this sub and others, but I'm not finding what I'm looking for.

I'm planning to have a pre-fab fiberglass / acrylic / PVC / etc... retrofit shower enclosure installed. This will replace an existing 32x60 jetted tub kludge that a prior owner installed. I'm not interested in solid surface materials or tile due to cost constraints.

I'd like to know which manufacturers / product lines are high quality and which ones should be avoided. I get the sense that the following might be higher-quality, but real-world experiences would be welcome. :)
