The bathroom is among the most functional rooms in your home. If you are giving it a makeover, you must make sure the upgrades you want to incorporate into the space will add value to your home despite the added costs. Here are the ones that are always worth the investment.
Radiant Flooring
This type of upgrade is a great addition to any modern bathroom. Radiant flooring is also rising in popularity because it offers several benefits that enhance your bathroom experience. One of the most popular options includes forced hot water radiant heating and the more affordable electric radiant mats. Forced hot water radiant heating works by having tiny hot water piped under the subfloor while electric radiant mats are placed on top of the cement board subfloor. Both have their benefits and drawbacks, so make sure to choose according to your needs and preferences!
Proper Lighting
Lighting plays a big part in home design, helping set the mood and tone of a room’s interiors. Your bathroom should have an adequate amount of it from both natural and artificial sources. With the right window placement, you can bring in as much sunlight into your bathroom as possible during the day. Of course, your bathroom should still have lighting fixtures that can brighten up the space and make it look larger despite its size. Layering your ambient, task and accent lighting helps you achieve this. To find the right lighting fixtures that best fit the aesthetics of the space, turn to your bathroom remodeling contractor for ideas and options.
Additional Storage
You should also consider additional storage options when planning your bathroom remodel. Your new bathroom should at least have a bigger closet, medicine cabinet, and recessed shelving so that you get more space for all your toiletries and other items. Recessed shelves in the shower provide easy access to necessities and can be cleverly tucked into the wall. Additional storage will always be a good upgrade especially if you’re planning to sell your home soon, as potential buyers will always be interested in ample yet stylish storage solutions in bathrooms.
