Is Your Bathroom Scary? A Remodel will Bring it Back to Life!

It’s the Spooky Season.

There are goblins in the yard and ghouls on the streets, all demanding candy.

But, if the scariest thing in your house during Halloween is the look of your bath, it may be time for a remodel.

Your Brooklyn plumbing professionals at Petri Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Drain Cleaning, Heating, Cooling & Drain Cleaning know that having a beautiful and highly functional bathroom can make all the difference in the world.

Here are several reasons why you should consider a bath remodel this fall:

1.     Improved Safety

Older bathrooms can be filled with safety hazards. Chipped or cracked tiles and uneven floors may be an eyesore, but they can also lead to falls.

An updated bathroom with new floors, fixtures and handrails can improve a home’s décor while it helps you stay safe. And, if you have older parents who are aging in place, having these upgrades can help them manage on their own.

2.     Better Functionality

If you have an older Brooklyn Brownstone, the way the bathroom was laid out when the home was built might not be functional today. A bath remodel can help you plan a bathroom that maximizes your existing space.

3.     Energy Efficiency

One way to increase energy efficiency in your home is by remodeling your bath. Low-flow showerheads and toilets and LED lighting can help save on your utility bills. For example, an older toilet can use up to six gallons a flush while a newer one uses a little more than one gallon per flush. Upgrading your bath can save you money in the long run.

4.     Higher Resale Value

If you’re planning to sell your home in the near future, you can gain a higher return on your investment by upgrading you bathroom. HGTV notes that even minor bathroom remodels can provide a recouperation rate of 102%.

5.     More Relaxation

Finally, a remodeled bathroom can help you relax. Not only will your home feel refreshed, but you’ll also be able to enjoy calming showers or baths in a more luxurious bathroom.
