Luxury Upgrades For Your New Bathroom Remodel
If you want your bathroom to feel like a spa, there are a few luxury upgrades you can invest in. Depending on the space you have available and the amount that you want to invest, you can create an incredible experience in the comfort of your own home. Here are a few of the most common bathroom remodels.
Whirlpool Tubs
Jacuzzi and Whirlpool tubs are some of the most popular bathroom upgrades. These are large tubs with spa-style jets that churn the water to help keep you relaxed. If you're the type of person who loves bath bombs and a good soak, a whirlpool tub can be both fun and therapeutic. Those who experience joint pain, back pain, and other similar afflictions may also find that whirlpool tubs worthwhile, as they can help to reduce their pain.
Saunas
Imagine a sauna in your own home. Many luxury bathrooms come with a tub, shower, and sauna all next to each other — perfect for relaxing after a long day or preparing yourself for the gym. A simple sauna can be surprisingly easy to install in your bathroom, as all you need is an enclosed space and an installed heating element. You can ask your builder how much it would cost to have this built in.
Full Wall Mirrors
Full wall mirrors don't just add to the 'spa' feel. They're also fully functional and they make your space look more open. When paired with bright light or daylight, a full wall mirror will illuminate the entire bathroom. This is even more useful if you're putting a luxury bathroom into a smaller space.
Rainfall Showerheads
For many, a rainfall showerhead is the pinnacle of relaxation and comfort. Rainfall showerheads are extremely large, broad showerheads that send a cascade of water over you, rather than a pointed stream. These showerheads can be used even with lower water flows, as they are specifically designed to be water-efficient. Even better, rainfall showerheads are one of the more affordable luxury upgrades you can invest in.
Natural Stone Tile
Natural stone such as slate, along with wooden accents, are considered to be luxurious materials and can easily elevate the look of any bathroom. Consider installing slate floors or natural stone-tiled walls. You can also build storage or shelving in wood.
Many people look at bathrooms and kitchens first when they decide whether they want to buy a house — which means most of these luxury upgrades are going to improve the value of your home.
