How To Renovate Your Home Bathroom

By Chad Schwartz


The number one home improvement these days is a bathroom renovation. Bathrooms have become a place in our home that's used for more than just hygiene. Many people now spend time relaxing in the bathroom as it's a personal retreat for them.

The design for bathrooms is endless and the standard rules have changed. If you're thinking about renovating a bathroom, consider the space you have and how you plan to lay it out.

In addition to considering the functionality, also consider the openness. If it's not too crowded, it will feel larger. A part of doing this in a successful way is by setting up the ideal layout. Another thing to look for are materials that can easily be maintained and cleaned.

Renovating a bathroom can get quite expensive, but it depends on how much you choose to spend. A new vanity top or a simple light fixture can cost just a couple hundred dollars. However, a complete renovation can cost $10,000+.

With all the great products available these days, your bathroom can become more than a typical bathroom. There are many other ways to improve the appearance of your bathroom, so let me share some.

For larger bathrooms, adding a piece of furniture or display case really add a nice touch. Wicker chairs are very popular in bathrooms. The display case or chair can create a feeling of an old fashion powder room.

Another way to change the feel of the room is with paint. If you want to add a vibrant feel, then consider going with a fun color. You can even mix and match colors if you're willing to get even more creative. If you want to stick to white or gray paint, but still want a pop you can add a plant or bright towels.

As you spend money on your bathroom renovation, you're investing in your home. Hopefully it lasts for a long time and increases the value of your home.
