Best Ways to Add Value to Your Bathroom

Best Ways to Add Value to Your Bathroom

When you’re conducting any home renovation project, it’s important to consider how the changes you make will affect the value of your home. If you’re thinking about remodeling your bathroom, you’re in luck. Bathroom renovations are one of the best ways to increase home value. That said, not all bathroom renovations are created equally, and some alterations are more impactful on your home’s overall worth than others. To learn about some of the best ways to add value to your bathroom, continue reading.

Invest in eco-friendly upgrades

One of the best ways to add value to your bathroom is to invest in eco-friendly upgrades. As homebuyers become increasingly conscious about their environmental footprints, bathrooms that are designed to save water and energy often serve as huge selling points. Plus, environmentally conscious upgrades provide the added benefit of reducing utility costs, which further entices many potential buyers. Examples of eco-friendly bathroom upgrades include switching to a high-efficiency toilet that uses less water per flush, installing a low-flow showerhead, or investing in a more efficient ventilation system.

Update the lighting

The lighting in a bathroom—or any room, for that matter—can have a large impact on its overall appearance. Even a beautifully designed bathroom can look a little dull and dingy if it doesn’t have ample lighting. As such, updating the lighting in your bathroom is an influential and relatively simple renovation that can add value to the space.

When updating the lighting in your bathroom, pay special attention to the lights around the mirror and sink. This area is where people typically get ready, so ample task lighting is essential. To illuminate the space without creating pesky shadows, a pair of wall sconces mounted at eye level is a great option.

Add a second sink

Another type of upgrade that can increase the value of your home’s bathroom is adding a second sink. If you have the space, adding a twin sink in your largest bathroom often serves as a big selling point. With two sinks, people can get ready together, which saves time and gives each person more space.

Before installing a second sink, it’s important to ensure your bathroom has enough space. To comfortably accommodate a second sink, you’ll require at least 60 inches of extra space.
