<\/p>\nBathroom remodels have consistently high returns on investment year after year. Whether you\u2019re setting your home up for a higher resale value or you simply want to make your mornings brighter, these remodeling ideas are sure to enhance both.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Vanities: From central to focal\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n The vanity can anchor your bathroom\u2019s design because it is central to both your routine and the physical space. Updating this feature can be as simple as refacing the cabinets and as complex as ripping out the old for something new.<\/p>\n Floating vanity:<\/strong>\u00a0These features are popular because they add modern flair and create clean lines. What\u2019s more, they can be floated at any preferable height and leave floor space for radiant heating or storage.<\/p>\n Comfort height:<\/strong>\u00a0If you find yourself stooping and overreaching to use your vanity and sink, it\u2019s no rare inconvenience. A little more than a decade ago, designers realized the standard height vanity at 32 inches wasn\u2019t cutting it. The new \u201ccomfort height\u201d standard is 36 inches.<\/p>\n A second sink:<\/strong>\u00a0Many homeowners have been dreaming of a second sink since their childhood battles in the family bathroom. If you have the opportunity and the space, adapt your vanity or install a new one that will accommodate.<\/p>\n Showers and tubs: From necessity to luxury\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n Standard showers and tubs are built for function rather than inspiration and relaxation. Updating or enhancing these features can transform your bathroom from a basic, functional room into an enjoyable retreat.<\/p>\n Freestanding tub<\/strong>: The tubs are popular, and they can give your bathroom a quick visual turnaround. In fact, they can stand as a design statement rather than a sunken necessity. Plus, they\u2019re available in magazine-worthy finishes like wood and copper.<\/p>\n Multiple shower heads:<\/strong>\u00a0Additional shower heads aren\u2019t just a luxury option. They add convenience, especially if you\u2019re installing a handheld style to go with a stationary rainfall shower head.<\/p>\n Curbless walk-in:<\/strong>\u00a0Make your bathroom more accessible and more appealing for resale. Accessible features move higher up on home buyers\u2019 priority lists every year. Kicking the curb on your shower makes it safer for older adults and those with disabilities \u2014 and even for yourself in case of a clumsy moment.<\/p>\n Floor and walls: From outdated to upgraded\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n If you\u2019re living with ratty old wallpaper and last century\u2019s flooring, give yourself a fresh start with new flooring and wall materials.<\/p>\n Tile:<\/strong>\u00a0There are now hundreds of new, affordable tile options for bathrooms. Wood grain tile, for example, is extremely popular. Other options include matte black tile, arabesques and octagons, and patterned tile that you can use as a sink backsplash and art feature.<\/p>\n
