Making upgrades to your bathroom can greatly increase the value and appeal of your home. As one of the most used rooms in any house, the bathroom should be a relaxing sanctuary that impresses guests and potential home buyers.
Today I will share the best bathroom upgrades that provide a great return on investment by increasing your home’s value. These upgrades range from simple cosmetic changes to full bathroom remodels.
Whether you’re looking to give your bathroom a mini makeover or do a complete overhaul, these ideas will help you choose renovations that will not only enhance the beauty and function of your space but also boost your home’s worth when it comes time to sell.
Read on for tips, trends, and things to consider as you plan bathroom renovations with resale value in mind.
Bathtub Upgrades
Replacing an old bathtub with a new freestanding soaking tub can provide a spa-like relaxation area in your bathroom. Opt for models with jets or air bubbles for the ultimate luxury experience.
Wall Tile Upgrade
Installing new wall tiles can instantly update the look of your bathroom. Choose natural stone tiles, glass tiles, or ceramic tiles in neutral colors or bold patterns to match your style.

Wallpaper Upgrade
Use removable wallpaper to easily refresh your bathroom walls without a major renovation. Choose waterproof wallpaper with fun prints or textures to add visual interest.
Farrow & Ball designed the lovely wallpaper behind this marble sink countertop, which looks fabulous with the bronze fixtures.

Bathroom Lighting Fixture Upgrade
Proper lighting is key in a bathroom. Update old lighting with new fixture styles like pendant lights, sconces or a lighted mirror to provide better visibility.
I have a thing for gold fixtures in the bathroom, and Emily Henderson’s guest bathroom here is divine.

Sliding Shower Door Upgrade
Replace a dated shower curtain with a sleek frameless glass shower door to open up small spaces. Sliding doors are space-savers that also have a modern, clean look.

Double Bathroom Vanity Upgrade
Double vanities allow two people to use the bathroom simultaneously. They also provide ample storage and countertop space for a less cramped environment.

New faucets can make a style statement in your bathroom. Waterfall, widespread and wall-mount faucets add modern flair, while traditional designs reflect classic charm.
