Set Bathroom Remodel Goals
Decide what your goals are and align them with any other decision-makers in the household. The easiest way to do this is to consider your needs and wants. Here are some common considerations to help you define your needs:
Define Your Needs:
If you’ve reached out to us about a bathroom remodel, it’s likely you have some ideas about what your needs are. Below are some of the more common needs we see to help you start thinking about this:
Addressing Damage and Potential Leaks
Perhaps your shower pan is cracked, and you need to replace your tub or shower to avoid water leaking into your crawl space or from the second floor down to your first floor. Maybe you already have a wet spot from your second-floor bathroom that’s visible downstairs. Or you’ve noticed sagging in your tub and you’re unsure of the extent of the damage underneath your shower or tub.
If you notice mold growing in the grout line that appears again after cleaning, that is a sign that the water is already behind the tile and doing damage behind the wall.
Our design consultants come equipped with a variety of tools, including a moisture reader, to determine if there’s water seeping into the walls or floors of your bathroom.
Upgrading for Safety and Aging in Place
Bathrooms are the most hazardous rooms in the house for seniors. Adding some simple upgrades can enhance safety and provide peace of mind.
We offer an entire blog dedicated to aging in place that details the options available to increase bathroom safety as you age in your home.
Ensuring Longevity and Durability
For some homeowners, the primary concern is the longevity and reliability of their bathroom remodel.
We pride ourselves on crafting resilient bathrooms backed by a 15-year labor warranty and a lifetime product warranty. Our installers, who are full-time employees and bathroom remodeling experts, ensure that your bathroom remodel will stand the test of time.
Balancing Budget and Quality
Cost is often a significant factor in a bathroom remodel, but it’s important to consider the value and longevity of your investment.
While it’s tempting to go for the cheapest option, it’s crucial to think about the long-term value and return on your investment. Cheap materials and labor often lead to additional remodels within a few years. By choosing EZPro Baths Express, you get a 15-year labor warranty and a lifetime product warranty, ensuring your investment is protected.
There’s an old adage in the bathroom remodeling industry: “Remodel nice or remodel twice.” This investment in your home should be done by the right company using high-quality materials installed by masters of their craft.
We have a blog about the factors that affect the cost of a bathroom remodel, so take a look at that to pin down what’s important to your remodel project.
We also offer financing options and run monthly specials. Stay in touch with us on social media to keep updated on our current remodel specials.
Modernizing Outdated Bathrooms
An outdated bathroom can be an eyesore and decrease the value of your home. If your bathroom is 20-30 years old and hasn’t had an upgrade, it’s a good idea to invest in a modern bathroom remodel.
Define your Wants:
This is the fun part! Figure out what you want your dream bathroom to look like. There are so many different directions you can go to build the bathroom you’ve been fantasizing about.
Vanities & Countertops
Our countertops are made with virgin acrylic and make for the most beautiful, easy-to-clean bathroom sink out there. Our vanities can be customized for different drawer types and sizes. We have endless colors and patterns for vanities and countertops so you can mix & match to fit your style.
Get New Flooring Installed
Don’t neglect your bathroom flooring. We often see bathrooms with showers or tubs in desperate need of an upgrade and homeowners choose to update the wet areas and avoid installing new flooring. New flooring can add so much
Our flooring is made from luxury vinyl that holds heat in the winter months and stays cool in the summer months. It’s also incredibly water-tight so you can rest assured that no moisture is leaking through into the subfloor.
Consider a Custom Glass Shower
Glass showers are not only functional but also add a touch of elegance to your bathroom. Custom glass showers look stunning and can become the centerpiece of your bathroom. They’re some of the projects we love to share the most due to their sleek and modern look.
Do Some Research and Get Inspired
