Mistakes to Avoid When Replacing Your Bathtub

Upgrading your bathtub is one of the simplest ways to enhance the utility and comfort of your bathroom. To ensure a successful project, there are a few common mistakes you need to avoid. Read on as local bathroom remodel contractor The Bathroom Store highlights these mistakes.

Underestimating the Size

When choosing a new bathtub for your bathroom, you need to consider how much space will be available once other fixtures are installed. Don’t underestimate the size of your new bathtub as you may end up with one that is too small and does not meet all your requirements. You need to carefully plan the floor plan with your contractor ahead of time.

Overwhelming the Bathroom

Your bathtub should comfortably fit in your bathroom and not overwhelm the space. Otherwise, you may have to either redesign your bathroom or try and work around the problem. Remember not to go overboard with your design choices. Instead, make sure that your bathroom elements complement each other well. 

Neglecting Durability and Functionality

In your bath renovation, durability and functionality are key factors to prioritize. Aside from picking out an attractive design, make sure that the material of your bathtub holds up well over time. Look for a bathtub that is also functional and convenient. Keep in mind that the bathroom should be a relaxing place you love to be in. You don’t want to ruin that by going for a pretty yet uncomfortable bathtub.

Overlooking Maintenance Needs

Consider the maintenance requirements of your new tub. One thing that can reduce maintenance needs is installing a drainage system underneath your new bathtub to ensure that water will not end up on the floor while you’re cleaning the tub.
