5 Reasons to Renovate Your Bathroom This Year

Every year it’s the same thing. You sit down at the beginning of the year and you think about all of the things you’d like to do to improve your home over the months ahead. What can you afford? What can’t you afford? What desperately needs to be fixed, updated, or renovated the most? And, what can you put off until next year? It probably doesn’t require too much thinking to come up with lists for every one of those questions, and chances are, the bathroom is probably on one of those lists somewhere.Like so many other people, you may have a love/hate relationship with your bathroom. It’s one of those rooms that you rely on constantly throughout the day, yet because of its function, it can be easy to take it for granted. As long as the toilet works, and you have running water in the sink and shower that isn’t leaking, then any cosmetic changes can wait until later, right? WRONG! Now is the time to finally get around to giving your bathroom the much needed update it’s been begging for. Here are five reasons why:

Improve your health and safety: For too many people, the harsh reality that their bathroom could be killing them never comes to light until a renovation takes place. Old, leaky pipes are often hidden behind walls, underneath tubs, and below layers of flooring. Standing or leaking water can cause mold, mildew, and extreme water damage that could be putting your health and safety at risk. Too often, the warning signs aren’t seen until the problem is out of control. This could be your opportunity to catch a problem you never knew existed.
Increase your home’s value: An updated bathroom is one of the few rooms that can have a significant impact on the resale value of your home. Simply by replacing outdated fixtures, old plumbing, and maximizing your functional storage and space, you can score big on your investment. There are many changes you can make that can add significant value to your home without breaking your bank account in the process.
Maximize the space in your bathroom: You might hate your bathroom because there just isn’t enough space to store everything, or enough room to create a beautiful space you love to spend time in. But, a complete renovation could help you discover all of your bathroom’s hidden potential. With the right fixtures, design and layout, you may find that you once-blah bathroom is really the best part of your entire home. You won’t have to worry about inadequate storage, tight spaces, and out-of-place fixtures when your bathroom rehab project is finished.
Relieve your stress and improve your happiness: It’s well known that the things we dislike the most are usually the things that cause us the most stress. Your bathroom may be one of those places, instead of the relaxing haven it’s meant to be. You should feel calm and soothed whenever you step into your bathroom. Is now the time to finally ease your tension after a long day with a relaxing bath in a deep tub or a long steam in your custom shower? This is the year to finally love your bathroom.
A small budget shouldn’t stop you from making big changes: Don’t let the reality of a small budget stop you from making some much-needed changes to your bathroom. Bathroom design experts from a reputable home improvement company can help you find the perfect upgrades and renovation solutions to fit your budget and needs. You might be surprised at how a few strategically planned updates can produce huge results that improve your entire bathroom.

Reviews

From start to finish Kurtis was a great company to work with. From the initial contact and design concept with Gregory Holster to the cabinet drop off team, the install team led by project manager Jeff Tuomi and the countertop company, the project was on time and all work was performed beyond expectations. This was greatly appreciated seeing as it was completed on December 23. All the people involved were professional and did an excellent job.

Shanna was our project consultant. Picking out cabinets along with counters can be somewhat overwhelming but her knowledge & experience helped us make the right decisions. Dylan & Juwan unloaded truck & Dylan check off ship ticket to make sure all boxes were accounted for. Courteous & pleasant to talk to…nice job of stacking everything neatly in our garage. We couldn't be more pleased with the service & so happy with our kitchen

We recently worked with Lauren on cabinetry for a master bathroom renovation. She was great to work on the design and selections. Lauren was efficient and responsive from cabinet selection through ordering. Our overall installation was smooth. We had some unforeseen circumstances impacting our ability to accept delivery of our cabinets on the initial agreed upon date. Kurtis was very accommodating in rescheduling delivery given our project challenges. We couldn't be happier with our cabinets for this project.

We had complete renovations to our kitchen and main bathroom. From start to finish, the design with Shanna was exactly what we asked for and Jeff stayed on top of the renovations, communicating each step of the way. Every worker was professional and the final product is elegant and functional. We were very happy with Kurtis and would choose Shanna and Jeff again.

We love our new kitchen! Kurtis Kitchen & Bath did an outstanding job, and Adrian at the Clarkston location was exceptional to work with—creative, patient, and really listened to what we wanted. The project was well-organized, and we went from demo to a fully functioning kitchen in just 30 days. Highly recommend!
