There\u2019s nothing like having a clean, beautiful bathroom in your home to do all your day-to-day hygienic tasks (even when some of the things we do in there aren\u2019t\u2019 so clean). One of the biggest problems with bathrooms is how dirty, messy, and worn they get over time\u2014 and usually without us noticing.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s funny how something like a bathroom\u2019s interior design can become outdated, but that\u2019s the honest reality of it. Sinks, faucets, bathtubs, floor tiles\u2014 if they reflect the old homeowner\u2019s taste, or they just haven\u2019t been updated in decades now, it\u2019s probably time for a bathroom facelift.<\/p>\n

If it feels like your bathroom can no longer withstand the size of your growing family (or your growing hygienic needs!), then it\u2019s very possible you\u2019ll need to go in there and break down some walls to expand. You can even indulge in investing in a new luxurious bathtub or jacuzzi.<\/p>\n

Yes, bathrooms are prone to your daily wear-and-tear, but the moment you notice that the faucets are rusting and leaking, the tiles are cracking, and\/or the walls and ceiling are crumbling from mold and moisture, then it\u2019s absolutely time for you to remodel your bathroom.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Bathrooms are notorious for retaining humidity, so it’s no surprise that mold is a common problem for many houses. You may notice that your wallpaper has become discolored or is flaking at the corners. Perhaps there are watermarks surrounding your fan. Though little mold may be cleaned with bleach, a bathroom makeover can help prevent a tiny mold problem from becoming a large mold problem.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
If you suspect that your bathroom has a slight mold problem, consider insulating it and replacing the ventilation system. If you suspect a serious mold problem, contact a mold removal specialist for testing and remediation (since it can be dangerous to do on your own).<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
High-end bathroom remodels can exceed\u00a0$25,000<\/b>, but even a small update can make your bathroom a selling point. Don\u2019t allow a cracked dub, leaky fixtures, and outdated decor to deter buyers. If you don\u2019t have a bathtub, consider adding one for families. Modern finishes like granite (rather than laminate) can have additional appeal.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Overall, repairs should always come before aesthetic upgrades. Improving the flooring is considered the most favorable investment and comes with an\u00a0average ROI of 107%<\/b>. Swapping out your regular tub for a jetted tub has\u00a0the lowest ROI<\/b>\u00a0because most homeowners don\u2019t want the fuss. If you don\u2019t have a huge budget, focus on inexpensive updates like a new coat of paint in a neutral color.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
