Bathroom Remodeling Design-Build Services

A bathroom remodel can increase your home's value more than any other remodeling project. According to national figures, midrange bathroom remodels have a return on investment of nearly 73%. In some areas, the return can be much higher. A bathroom addition returns the most value, averaging 86%. Whether you decide to update an existing bathroom or build a bathroom addition, it will surely enhance your home and life.

The highest-return bathroom upgrades are flooring, vanities, cabinets, showers, and tubs. The top three include updated backsplashes and floors with classic tiles or mixed materials, durable and beautiful slab countertops, and universal design elements like curb-less showers and wheelchair accessibility.

Other popular upgrades, such as steam showers, walk-in luxury showers, custom spas, and jet tubs, don't add as much value, but if they're part of your dream bathroom vision, they can be valuable to your well-being and enjoyment.

Estimating the time it will take to remodel a bathroom is challenging, as many factors go into how long it will take. Full bathroom remodels take more time than cosmetic ones, as they often involve scheduling electrical and plumbing services. You may decide to change the layout, tear out walls, or move existing fixtures. If special materials need to be ordered, it may cause delays as you wait for delivery.

Discover how the Better Builders tried and true remodeling process takes the stress off of client decision-making. 

1. Master bathroom addition. If you’re tired of sharing a bathroom with your kids and guests, you may want to build a private master suite.

2. Kids’ bathroom addition. If the hall bathroom isn’t enough to accommodate your growing family, it could be time to add another bathroom somewhere else.

3. Guest bathroom addition. Do you love hosting guests? Make them feel more comfortable with a bathroom to call their own whenever they visit.

4. Basement bathroom addition. Having an extra bathroom in your basement could be beneficial.

5. Half-bath addition. Sometimes, an extra toilet and sink on the main floor are all you need to make your home more functional.

Privacy
Nothing creates the feeling of an in-home retreat more than an extra bathroom. You’ll appreciate the added privacy when you settle in for a long, uninterrupted bubble bath.

Support your growing family
If you have a full house, arguing over who gets to use the bathroom next is probably a daily struggle. Adding an extra bathroom helps your growing family live comfortably together.

Accommodate guests
Perhaps relatives love staying with you but don’t want to share your bathroom. A private guest suite is a perfect solution.

Boost home value
Adding an extra bathroom can increase resale value by 10-20%.

Location: On which floor will you build your bathroom addition? Will you convert an under-used room or bump out the walls to create extra square footage? Better Builders can help you decide what’s best.

Size: Size is crucial when planning a bathroom addition. A powder room or half-bath can fit as little as 18 square feet, while a full bath requires at least 30 square feet. If you want both a separate tub and shower, plan for at least 35 square feet to ensure a comfortable layout.

Layout: Bathroom layout is key to maximizing space and functionality when planning a bathroom addition. Consider the placement of fixtures like the shower, toilet, and sink to ensure a smooth flow and comfortable use. Factor in plumbing access, ventilation, and natural light to create an efficient and inviting design.

Uses: Not every bathroom serves the same purpose. Knowing who will use the space can help you decide on the best fixtures, finishes, and layout. Discover how to plan for a functional primary bathroom suite.
