Kitchen and Bathroom Remodel questions, answered by experts
There are many benefits of converting a tub to a walk-in shower, including:
Increasing home value (if there’s another tub in the house)
Taking up less space and improving bathroom space flow
Making bathrooms look larger
Improving home safety by removing a major trip-and-fall hazard
Easing showering for those who benefit from more accessibility
Saving money on water bills
Completing a full standard bathroom remodel offers the best value, with an average return on investment (ROI) of 70%. However, you don't need a full remodel to make an impact. To maximize value, focus on key components like flooring, the tub and shower, vanity, and cabinets. High-value upgrades include installing a walk-in shower, resurfacing a tub, retiling, or expanding the shower. For more budget-friendly options that still increase value, consider repainting with a light, neutral color, or updating the mirror and light fixtures. It's also crucial to address any necessary repairs, such as leaks, mold, or cracked tiles, as buyers will notice these issues. Avoid flashy upgrades like bathtub jets or steam showers, which don't add as much value.
Use waterproof or moisture-resistant paint in rooms with excessive humidity. You should also ensure these rooms are properly ventilated by regularly opening windows and turning on fans, especially after someone showers or takes a bath.
How long it takes to remodel a bathroom yourself depends on the size of the bathroom, the scope of the project, your skill levels, and how much free time you have. If all you’re doing is giving the room a fresh coat of paint, you can be done and dusted in a couple of days. A large DIY bathroom remodel takes two weeks to a month.
One of the most crucial parts of finding a reliable bathroom remodeler is asking for customer references. Since bathroom remodeling is a major home project, other homeowners will have a strong opinion one way or the other about the quality of the work and professionalism of the contractor. Ask any bathroom remodeler for a list of references, and contact previous customers to ask for their opinion and photo results. You can also look for online reviews and complaints filed with the Better Business Bureau.
