Your bathroom is one of the most frequently used rooms in your house and this is one of the biggest reasons a bathroom retrofit could be right for you if you’re looking to renovate the space not to mention that it looks fantastic when completed. Let’s explore.
What is a Bathroom Retrofit?
It’s good to know the difference between your two options of updating your bathroom. A bathroom retrofit is updating your bathroom by taking out all the old fixtures and materials and then building over the existing bathroom plumbing and layout. Since the new shower and tub install fits neatly over your existing space, there is no massive demolition saving you on stress, a big mess, and time.
On the other hand a traditional bathroom remodel is tearing out and replacing portions of your bathroom or ripping everything out and starting over entirely. It takes a lot of time, it’s noisy, messy and ultimately expensive.
Bathroom retrofits have many advantages, including:
-a completely new look in 2 days or less with minimal disruption to your family’s daily routine
-costs will be minimized with the fast process and utilization of the original bathroom setup
-there are many style options for every need and aesthetic making personalization of your new product simple
-a wide variety of sizes means there are products that can fit any space small or large or even in a corner
-transforming a tub to a shower is an easy process (many families find showers a better option than tubs these days)
-there are an abundance of safety and convenience features that come in retrofit systems (think built in shelving, low threshold entry points, etc).
-the materials used to make retrofit products are ultra hygienic, easy to clean and durable
-many faucet /shower head options come with low flow features meaning your water usage will be minimized
-a retrofit bath will improve the value of your home making it an excellent investment choice
The key to a perfect retro fit bathroom is expert preparation work before your new products are installed.
