The good news is that practically every sign points to better market value should you decide to sell your home in the future. ![5 Bathroom Remodeling Options for Better Home Value](https://static.hsstatic.net/BlogImporterAssetsUI/ex/missing-image.png) Now comes the challenging part: deciding on what types of remodeling can actually get you better recoup values. Here are some ideas. ## **Replace the Floor or the Backsplash** You can also do both if your budget allows you to. The upside of doing this is you can give your bathroom the look of a complete renovation for less. Compare this to replacing the fixtures or the tub or shower area only and you’ll see that a new floor plus a new backsplash lends more appeal. ## **Overhaul to a Universal Design** Accessibility additions are important for many buyers. For some, they’re the only features that would convince them to buy. Even if you aren’t planning to sell, universal design is always a welcome renovation. Aging in place? No problem. Your bathroom can accommodate your needs even if the user has mobility issues. ## **Replace the Bathtub** Ever considered getting a walk-in tub? Now is your chance, especially if you want a tub that goes well with universal design standards. Even if you don’t want a walk-in tub, upgrading your old tub with a newer and better model can do loads to change the personality of your bathroom, not to mention improve your mood. There is no shortage of [bathtub remodeling companies](https://southshoredreambath.com/about-us/) willing to help you choose the right one for your needs. ## **Convert Your Tub to a Shower** If you want your bathroom to have a slicker, more modern and youthful vibe, removing your old bathtub might be the key. Replace your tub with a shower area that allows you to maximize space. ## Improve Your Vanity Improve your vanity by installing slab countertops. Slab countertops made of natural stone or porcelain are popular for getting a modern bathroom feel.
