Bathroom Updates - Low Cost - Big Impact

When sprucing up your home for visitors, the bathroom is one space in the house where you can make a big impact for a relatively small outlay. And this is particularily true when selling your home. Most people already know that kitchens and bathrooms have the best return on investment as well as assisting in a faster sale.

However, it's possible to make a significant difference without breaking the bank to do it! Here are some easy and affordable ways to add pop and create interest.

  • Replace a dated light fixture, lots of choice at your friendly home improvement centre.
  • Consider replacing the sink faucet with perhaps the look of brushed nickel with pulled handles. Same goes with the bathtub and shower fixtures. While you're picking up the lighting, head over to plumbing for inexpensive assemblies that look great!
  • Adding new hardware on vanities will instantly perk up the appearance of the bathroom.
  • Keep all your personal care articles well out of sight. Clutter dates and shrinks the room, particularily if it is small.
  • If the floor is taking on a vintage look, and not in a good way!, there are loads of easy do-it-yourself options that will create a fresh addition. A light, neutral colour will give it a spacious feel.
  • And if the wall tiles around the tub have seen better days, a one piece enclosure that gives the appearance of a tiled wall will do wonders! 
  • Another quick and easy update: replace the towel racks, toilet seat, and accessories such as the soap dispensor, toothbrush and toilet roll holders.
  • Finally, add colour and richness with new floor mats, towels, and shower curtains. You can splurge on the best products because when you move, you'll be taking them with you!
