Out of all the different types of maintenance homeowners need to keep up with, bathroom remodels are unique projects that tend to pay for themselves in the long run. A newly-renovated bathroom can upgrade and enhance your home in many different ways, which is why this type of update typically sees high returns on investment.
Clear Choice Bath is a trusted bathroom remodeler serving markets in Minneapolis, Des Moines and Pensacola. No matter where in the country we're installing a new bathtub or replacing a shower, we see homeowners benefit time and again from these services. Below, we break down the main factors that lead to a higher home value after a top-tier bathroom remodel.
Quality of Renovation
First and foremost, the amount of value that your specific bathroom remodel will contribute to your home will depend heavily on the quality of the renovations. If a remodeler is inexperienced or rushes through the project, the end results won't be near as long-lasting or reliable. If you work with an experienced contractor that uses quality materials and best practices, your tub or shower installation is more likely to be exact. This leads to many benefits that could help increase your home value, such as:
- Enhanced Aesthetics
- Improved Functionality
- Longer-Lasting Results
- No Risk of Water Damage
- Less Chance of Repairs
Scope of Project
Another important consideration when determining what kind of ROI you can expect out of your bathroom remodel is the scope of the entire project. With bathroom renovations, mid-range remodels tend to see significantly higher returns on investment than upscale projects, which could feature expensive materials, elaborate layout changes and customization options. In contrast, mid-range remodels, such as shower or bathtub replacements, usually come with affordable materials and less labor, and often see ROIs in the 60%–80% range.
Product Selection
As mentioned above, the products you select for your bathroom remodel will play a role in the value added to your home, too. If you opt for cheap materials, you may come out under budget, but your added value will also be lower. But, the opposite can have the same effect—luxury bath products that come with a hefty price tag don't typically see great returns on investment, either. We suggest aiming for the middle, selecting products that are reliable yet accessible, including things like:
- Porcelain or Ceramic Tile
- Quartz Countertops
- Water-Efficient Features
- Frameless Glass Enclosures
- Built-In Shelving
Existing Home Value
One last, large factor affecting how much a bathroom remodel is able to contribute to home value is the condition of the home in general. If you take care of your property and invest in needed maintenance when issues pop up with plumbing, heating, roofing or something else, your bathroom remodel will have a much greater impact than if the rest of your home is also looking outdated and underperforming.
