Remodeling and Payback Part II Bathrooms

Bathrooms

A major redo can be expensive. Depending on bathroom size and add-ons you could be looking at $40,000. The higher-end options such as granite, frameless glass shower doors, and basin vessel sinks can truly add cost. However, bathroom redos usually recoup upwards of 80% of there costs. Not that I would suggest putting a $40,000 bathroom in a $150,000 home.

Some quick, easy, and less expense fixes are:

  • painting cabinet doors and updating hardware,
  • adding stylish new faucets,
  • re-glazing worn tub and tiles, and
  • replacing older fluorescent light fixtures.

As for complete bathroom additions think about what is available in your neighbor. If you go to sell are you competing against two or three bathroom home and you have one or one and half. Then it may be time for an addition. Besides you will enjoy the privacy while you live there.
