5 Ways To Upgrade Your Master Bathroom

Modernize Your Master Bath With These 5 Tips

Has it been a while since you've renovated your master bath? If so, we have the perfect topic: bathroom design.

Bathrooms are one of the hardest-working spaces in a home, but they don't often get a lot of love. That's a shame because a beautiful bathroom has a lot to offer. For example, a modernized bath can raise your house's value. For another, it can appeal to homebuyers who want minimal renovations.

Even if you plan to stay in your house for a long while, you still deserve a nice-looking master bath. After all the time you spend in it, you might as well be surrounded by beauty.



Of course, we can't forget about functionality--bathrooms have important purposes, after all. The good news is, you can tackle aesthetics and practicality with the right bathroom design. If you want to upgrade your master bath without starting from scratch, here are five ways to innovate.

1. Add Storage Space

As families grow and you build your stash of towels and toiletries, you need more space. The shelves you started with may no longer hold all your hair care products, leaving them to accumulate on the bathtub rim.

Fortunately, this issue is easily solved by adding more storage. Today's cabinet designs excel at maximizing storage without seeming cluttered or taking up too much space. For example, you can add floating shelves above towel racks to create the perfect place to store lotions and hand creams.

2. Replace Outdated Tile

Tile is extremely popular in bathrooms due to its durability, low maintenance requirements and hygienic qualities. Since tile lasts so long, you may go decades without replacing it. While this is a plus for cost-saving efforts, it can also leave your master bath looking outdated.

Fortunately, you can easily remedy this by replacing old tiles. We recommend choosing a neutral color or classic geometric pattern, as these trends never go out of style.

3. Update Metal Fixtures

If you want to switch things up but don't have a big budget, an affordable option is updating metal fixtures:

• Faucets
• Sink handles
• Cabinet handles

You'll be surprised at the difference new handles can make--depending on which you choose, they can transform the room. There are plenty of materials and styles available, so you can find something that fits your decor but still offers something new.

4. Transform Your Shower

Your shower isn't just a place to get clean--it's also the perfect spot to relax and take a moment for self-care. Is your current shower conducive to relaxation? If not, there are plenty of ways to turn it into an oasis.

For example, stone tiles add a natural elegance while providing all the durability of ceramic. In addition to offering a wide variety of colors, natural stone also comes in several textures, which you can mix and match to great effect. You can even create patterns with strategically chosen slabs for an artistic look.

5. Install a New Countertop

Countertops have the power to transform a room, but they suffer the brunt of daily use and, depending on the material, may show wear that makes your master bath seem grungy. The good news is, when you find the right countertop replacement, it can last decades.

Porcelain and quartz slabs are both great options for countertops since they're hygienic and highly durable. If you want something that resembles natural stone but is low maintenance, both quartz and porcelain are a fantastic option.
