You’ve been thinking about it for a while, making updates to your home. However, the cost that comes with the project is keeping you from making a final decision.
Leave the stress behind and see why remodeling your home is a great investment.
Cost Vs. Value: The Reality of Remodeling While remodeling projects come at a cost, the value of the final product not only includes a happy homeowner, but also a renewed space that can bring up home value and even a high percentage of costs recouped.
According to the Cost Vs. Value Report from Zonda™ Media, remodeling projects for key spaces in the home provide great value. Specifically, universal design bathroom remodels add value and have a cost recouped rate of 56%.
These types of remodels are focused on accessibility, meaning that:
Spaces are made wheelchair accessible
Toilets have a comfort height fixture featuring elongated bowl and bidet-type seat
Bathtubs are replaced with curbless, tiled, walk-in shower with adjustable showerhead, foldout seat, thermostatic mixing valve, and bi-directional glass door
Floors are updated with electric radiant heat beneath
Vanities are updated to a living vanity with easy-grasp handles and adjustable mirror
Lights are updated to LED lights, infrared ceiling light, night light, and ultra-quiet vent fan with humidity sensing controls
Ceramic tiles are used on walls with two contrasting color stripes
Towel bars should be able to support 250 pounds
Storage should be reconfigured to be accessible from a seated position
