How to Tell If It’s Time for a Bathroom Remodel

Is your bathroom design looking a bit dated? Are those chipped bathroom tiles eating at you? These are signs it’s time to upgrade your bathroom. Aside from keeping an eye out for warning signs of damage, you can ask yourself some questions to make a decision.

Is There Anything You Don’t Like About Your Current Bathroom?

A bathroom remodel is a great opportunity to replace bathroom features you rarely use with ones that are more functional. For instance, if you rarely take baths, why not turn your shower-tub combo into a generously sized shower stall?

Do You Have Kids?

The bathroom is usually one of the smallest parts of a home despite being frequently used. If you have kids, it might be a good idea to start planning a bathroom expansion. Bathroom space may not be an issue now, but it will be when your kids are older.

Do You Find It Hard to Relax In Your Bathroom?

Your bathroom is supposed to be your personal sanctuary. If you find it hard to relax in your bathroom, it may be time to upgrade its design. Here’s a tip: to create a relaxing spa-like atmosphere in your bathroom, we recommend replacing chipped tiles with sleek stone or porcelain tiles. These tiles can add a sense of sophistication to any bathroom. As for your bathroom’s color scheme, we recommend choosing a neutral color scheme. Neutral colors have a lasting appeal that has withstood the test of time.

Coordinating colors can be tricky. That’s why if you’re having trouble choosing a new color scheme for your bathroom, don’t hesitate to consult a DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen contractor. Our experienced designers will carefully listen to your ideas to create a bathroom design that suits your needs and preferences.

Do Your Parents Live With You?

According to a 2018 study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 80% of bathroom accidents were due to bathroom slips. In particular, slippery bathroom floors pose a significant safety risk to older household members. To reduce the risk of falls, we recommend replacing old bathroom tiles with smaller ones, which are less slippery. For added safety, you can also install grab bars near toilets and tubs.
