Bathroom remodels can increase your home’s resale value and also make your life easier. With the help of an experienced custom home remodeling contractor, you should end up with a beautiful, relaxing, and functional space. By choosing the right upgrades, you can get a higher return on investment.
Here are bathroom upgrades that are worth the added cost.
Plumbing
The lifeblood of your bathroom is the plumbing. If possible, go for larger pipes since they are less likely to get clogged. The standard size of drainage pipes is around 1.5 inches in diameter but you can upgrade them to 2 inches. This upgrade will actually save you money in the long run because you can avoid expensive repairs and don’t have to spend as much on maintenance.
Storage
Make the most of your bathroom’s wall space by adding shelves and organizers. With enough storage, you can prevent your space from getting cramped and cluttered. Adding more storage will improve your lifestyle more than you think. An organized bathroom will save you time looking for things you need, especially during busy weekdays.

Tiles
