5 Signs It's Time to Remodel Your Bathroom

If you're a homeowner, you're probably well-aware that there's always some project that could improve the way your property looks and functions. And while kitchen renovations are popular, the same can be said for bathroom remodeling. In fact, these two types of home improvements are the most popular requests that home remodeling contractors receive.

That's for good reason. If your home's main bathroom isn't meeting your family's needs, it can be a real source of stress. Wondering whether to contact reputable design-build remodeling experts to take on this renovation? If any of the following five signs sound familiar, you'll want to get in touch with home remodeling experts to talk about a bathroom remodel.

  1. You have no storage space: Just about everyone could use more storage. But if you genuinely have no cabinet space or shelving -- and no place to add any -- in your existing bathroom, it may be time to consider making some big changes. Whether you need to relocate existing fixtures or you need to open up the entire space, a cramped bathroom with a lack of storage simply won't do. By working with design-build remodeling experts, you can obtain a bathroom that meets your family's needs.

  2. There is obvious damage: If your home is older (or the bathroom has simply seen better days), it's possible that forgoing a renovation could be decreasing your home's value. Worse yet, it could actually contribute to dangerous conditions. Falling tiles, plumbing issues, or excessive humidity and mold growth can all be visually unappealing and harmful to your family's well-being. When you know that your bathroom has experienced extensive damage, do yourself a favor and take care of it as soon as possible. Home remodeling services will allow you to address the source of the damage and improve the appearance of the space for years to come.

  3. The design is outdated: Trends come and go -- which means that "timeless" design is a bit of a misnomer, in many cases. A bathroom that was designed with popular trends in mind probably won't stand the test of time. Even if everything functions as it should, an unattractive powder room isn't going to help you increase the value of your property or your experience in the space. If your shower is outdated with square blocks of glass or the style of the bathroom simply doesn't match the rest of the home, you may want to consider renovating it to create a positive impression.

  4. The lighting is poor: Any bathroom needs to provide stellar lighting. Whether it's natural or artificial (or a combination of the two), you shouldn't have to compromise here. Otherwise, you'll likely miss some important steps in your personal grooming routine. Of course, it's possible to add some lighting without undergoing a massive renovation. But if you really want to tackle the root of the issue and there's limited floor space, you're probably going to need help from a professional to fix the lighting problem.

  5. You plan to sell your home: Design-build remodeling services are often recommended to homeowners who intend to stay put -- but they're also a great idea for those who plan to sell their properties in the near future. According to Remodeling’s 2018 Cost Vs Value report, bathroom remodels provide an average ROI of 70% upon selling a home. If you know you want to move and you've received the recommendation that your current bathroom could have an adverse impact on your ability to sell for a premium, talk to a remodeling contractor to see what kinds of improvements can be made to entice prospective buyers.
