Designer Kitchens & Baths – Ask the Expert 2025

Is it worth it to remodel my bathroom?

Remodeling your bathroom is one of the most worthwhile investments to make, not only for your home, but for your life. Updating older bathrooms increases the resale value of your home, whether it be adjusting the aesthetic, replacing outdated hardware or a full remodel. Replacing older tub and shower units with newer tubs and walls allows for more space in the bathroom and provides a more relaxing and enjoyable shower system. Beyond that, remodeling your bathroom ensures long-lasting quality.

If you aren’t selling and intend for this place to be your forever home, that is all the more reason to remodel your bathroom. Updating for accessibility needs allows homeowners to age in place. This may include adding walk-in, lower threshold shower systems with grab bars, seats and hand showers to make them safer, replacing tub and shower units or making your bathroom wheelchair-accessible. Whatever your situation may be, keeping an updated bathroom that fits your comfort level — for resale value, for your forever home or for aging in place — is one of the best investments you can make in your home.
