In the last couple of months, I’ve told you about my bathroom remodeling experiences.  When we decided to do our 2nd bathroom, we faced a dilemma that we’re often asked about at home shows and events.

Will not Having a Bathtub in my Home Hurt my Resale Value?

Again, this is a question we hear often, and it’s one my wife and I had when it came time to remodel our second bathroom.  We asked Priscilla, and this is what she told us.  It won’t impact your home value per se, but it will eliminate segments of potential buyers when you decide to sell.  For example, families with small children tend to prefer a bathtub, because it makes bath time easier.  There also some people that just prefer a good soak after a long day or before going to bed.  In the end, we decided to keep our tub on the second level of our home where we had 3 bedrooms, and we close on the sale of that home tomorrow.  BathPlanet helped us with beautiful low maintenance acrylic walls and hardware, new flooring and fixtures, and a coordinated countertop.

It’s Totally Your Call

The British economist, John Maynard Keynes, is famous for saying, “In the long run, we’re all dead.”  Granted, he was talking about the economy, but he could also be talking about bathroom remodeling😊.  In the end, you have to do what is best for you at the time.  If a bathtub creates a safety hazard for you or you just want a walk-in shower, we can help you.  If you want to keep your bathtub, we can work around that, too.
