Bathroom Renovation Ideas

Small home renovations can drastically increase the market value of your home. However, not all renovations add value to your home; some are more aesthetic than anything else. Other renovations may seem pricy at first but may pay out huge dividends in the long run. For homeowners looking to increase the market value of their home, renovating an essential room such as the bathroom adds considerable amount of value. However, you may be stuck on what types of small renovations for your bathroom. Remember, you don’t have to create an expensive master bathroom with his/her faucets and mirrors; you can add new floors, cabinets, sinks and even change the shadow boxes on old mirror frames to add value to your home.

Add a New Paint Job

Overtime, the paint in your bathroom starts to chip or mold due to the heat generated from hot showers. Often, the easiest (and most important) renovation to be done is to add a new paint job. When you walk into a bathroom, the color of the walls immediately grabs your attention. If there are chipped paint marks, discolored areas or even moldy spots, then it’s a sign that a new paint job is needed. Remember, you don’t need to be a professional painter to retouch the bathroom; a simple spray gun or roller will do the trick.

Cabinet Upgrade

The cabinets in the bathroom, as with the paint, are two attention grabbers that homeowners always look at when they walk into a bathroom. Cabinets may be pricey, but remember, you do not have to replace the whole cabinet if they are undamaged. The main part of the cabinet that you may want to replace is the door. If you notice the door and handles are old and chipping, then it’s a definite sign they need replacing.

Tiles and Counters

While natural stone tiles and counters, such as marble and granite, are expensive, you do have the option of purchasing ceramic tiles at a cheaper price. When shopping for tiles and counters, don’t settle on a local hardware store’s selection, instead, price match with local and online vendors. Often times, you can find bigger discounts from online vendors who buy tiles wholesale than from local vendors who may sell their merchandize at a 15% markup.

Decorations

Once your bathroom is redecorated with new tiles, counters and cabinet doors, you may want to consider adding new decorative items to your bathroom. For example, if your wall mirror’s frame is looking a bit old, you may want to add a new round frame to match the new paint job and tiled floor you had installed. Towel racks and small ornaments are also great additions to add into a newly designed bathroom.

These are just some basic upgrades you can consider placing in your new bathroom. However, each bathroom will vary depending on the square feet and budget. Remember, you don’t have to spend a fortunate to make your bathroom look nice.
