Will a New Bathroom Add Value to my Home?

A new bathroom will breathe new life into your home and make you and your guests happy to use it. We spend a significant percentage of our waking hours in the bathroom, so keeping it fresh and up to date is always welcome.

Not only will a new bathroom make your home more livable for you and your family, but it will also add value to your home in the event you decide to sell in the future. This might not be at the front of your mind right now, but it's always a good thing to consider when making any major changes to your home.

As one of the most used rooms in any home, a clean and coordinated bathroom makes a great first impression, proving that your home is well taken care of.

Will Replacing my Small Bathroom Increase the Value of my Home?

When it comes to making an impact, size is not an issue. We find that even small bathrooms are packed with potential so are well worth the upgrade. 

For example, replacing a bath with a walk-in shower is an easy way to open up a small bathroom and modernise it at the same time. Other ways to increase the sense of space in a small bathroom is with clever use of mirrors, lighting and storage to keep the area bright and clutter-free. 

Do I Have to Replace all my Bathrooms?

Depending on your budget, how many bathrooms can be completely renovated will vary.

Most importantly, the function is top priority. Making sure that taps aren't dripping, any cracks are dealt with and nothing is falling apart in general. The main focus should be on which bathroom would get the most use and you care about the most.

If all they need is a few touch-ups, consider making small changes to all your bathrooms. Little changes can go a long way such as adding a double sink or swapping out a clunky old vanity for something more sleek and modern. Glass shower screens will also look more appealing than an old and worn shower curtain.

Should I Get New Bathroom Tiles?

If they're made from high-quality materials, bathroom tiles can last a long time. They might get the job done right now, but the downside is that designs and styles of tiles go in and out of fashion regularly (remember avocado suites?)

An easy way to modernise a bathroom during a renovation is to install waterproof bathroom wallboards. They're available in a wide range of finishes and price points to suit any style and budget.
