It would be fantastic to have an unlimited home improvement budget, wouldn't it? To be able to re-do every room you want, at the same time, with no regard to price. Most of us would remodel our kitchen, living rooms, basements, maybe add new flooring...
Or, we might put up more aesthetic improvements like painting the house or adding fancy new doors to the home. But, the reality is that most of us are on a budget. Remodeling can get expensive, fast. It's very easy to go over budget before the work is even started. And, this can kill your progress. Most of us have to choose between home improvement projects. If the budget is tight, it's best to pick the project that offers the biggest return on investment.
Want to Increase Home Value? Re Do Your Bathrooms
Even re fitting your existing tub can make the bathroom more attractive. Many home owners opt to get rid of their old style tub-shower combo and instead install a stand up shower with glass door and tile floors and walls. This is a great way to make your home's bathrooms more valuable. Others like to add large, jacuzzi style tubs. These also add value and can be an edge when selling your home in a tight housing market.
Putting in a new floor is a great way to increase value. Removing carpet, which can be a haven for mold and mildew in the damp, wet shower environment, and instead putting in tile is a great way to make your home better. It looks better, is more functional, and will allow you to sell your home for more money. Even a simple paint job can turn the bathroom's look and feel into something extraordinary. A few new mirrors, some fresh paint, and some art work will make the room feel more warm, make it look more pleasant, and is an inexpensive way to give the room a nice face lift. This is also good when "staging" a home when selling.
