An Easy Room to Remodel to Increase Your Home's Value

A great way to increase a home's resale value is to remodel a tired, out-of-date bathroom. Bathrooms were previously designed to be purely functional rooms, to just get in there to do what you're in there to do and move on. But these days, there are SOOOOOOOOOOO many ways that you can personalize a bathroom, whether it be a small powder room or a large master bathroom, that can bring peace and comfort to all who enter.

A quick, easy change to a bathroom is to change the paint color. The bathroom below felt so institutional with it's white walls and medium-grey ceiling. By pulling a color from the bath mat, the bathroom was brightened up in one weekend, with a quick and colorful paint job.With a few touches from Junk Warehouse to further personalize the room, it now has a sense of fun-chic and brings a smile to all who enter.

Paint color is just the beginning. You can really let your own personality shine with sink styles and cabinet styles, not to mention cool lighting (and cool lighting abounds these days!!!). Unless you're remodeling for the sole purpose of moving, DO NOT hold back on reflecting your own style in your bathrooms. When it does come time to move, your cool, stylish bathroom will no doubt give you a leg up on any competition!

You can further stylize and personalize your bathrooms with your choice of tiles, countertop materials and of course your faucets/fixtures and choice of shower door. The possibilities are absolutely endless! If you do not use your tub at all, change your shower/tub to a walk-in shower. Many people are removing their spa tubs to achieve a spacious shower space and turning their old small shower spaces into linen closets. What a perfect way to make the best use of all of your bathroom space.

And, lastly, especially because a bathroom remodel involves plumbing and electrical, you absolutely MUST use a qualified remodeler to get the job done. The damage done by water can be devastating and by improperly wired electrical work - downright dangerous.
