Great Ways to Upgrade Your Primary Bathroom

Written by J. Bryant Boyd | Dec. 14, 2022

Your primary bathroom is one of the most-used rooms in your home. Since it’s where you start and end your day, you want to make sure it’s a space that you love. If your primary bathroom looks outdated or has issues with functionality, it’s time to consider an upgrade. J. Bryant Boyd Architect Design-Build takes a look at some ways to upgrade your primary bathroom.

Why You Should Upgrade Your Primary Bathroom

You may have one or several reasons to upgrade your primary bathroom, from increasing the storage or floor area to simply wanting to give your bathroom a nice makeover. Whatever the reason, an upgrade is a great way to improve your home and increase its value. Upgrading your bathroom can also make it more functional and efficient. The following are some ways to upgrade your bathroom:

Replace the Vanity 

A new vanity is a great upgrade to any bathroom, and can impact the overall look. Because you can choose virtually any style for your vanity, you have to take care in planning it and make sure that it works with the rest of your bathroom remodeling plans. If you have no experience with renovation plans, no problem: our custom home building team can help you with designing and building it.

Install New Flooring 

Another great bathroom upgrade is new flooring. More than just changing the tile color, shape, and style, consider features like slip resistance for improved safety, or underfloor heating for an always-warm bathroom floor, even when you have to use it during cold seasons.

Upgrade the Lighting Fixtures

Bathroom remodeling is an opportunity to improve upon its lighting plan. Bathrooms utilize a combination of ambient and utility lighting, which will ultimately decide how simple or complex the project will be. Installing new fixtures such as sconces or pendant lights, or replacing existing fixtures with more stylish ones, can make a big difference in style, as well as address lighting issues in the room.

Add Storage Space

If you’re short on bathroom storage space, a remodel is an opportunity to increase it. Consider adding shelves and cabinets, or reconfiguring it to maximize space. The extra storage will help keep your bathroom organized and tidy.

Install a Shower Bench

A shower bench is seating that’s set in the shower. It can help taking a shower more comfortable, especially for members of your household who may have difficulty standing for relatively long periods. A shower bench can be built in place or as a free-standing seat.
