Four Reasons to Resurface Your Bathroom

Posted on

Do you think that your bathroom tile looks outdated? Are you ready to make a change, but don't know where to start? Are there too many options to consider and choose from? Do you want to remodel your bathroom, but can't afford the cost? The following guide will quickly help you understand a few of the reasons for bathroom renovations and how to do it without breaking your budget.

Colour

Many families live in houses designed and built decades ago that are in desperate need of a new look. Bathrooms designed in the 1950s or 1960s are likely to have pastel coloured bathtubs, floors, or tile walls, and in this day and age, modern, neutral colours are much more desired. If your bathroom has ugly or outdated colours, consider resurfacing some of the pieces. A gleaming white tub or shower is only a phone call away.

Stained or Moldy Tiles

Because bathrooms are often damp or humid after showers, mold and mildew can easily form under improperly laid tiles or along grout lines. It can be unattractive and dangerous to your health and should be dealt with as soon as possible. Resurfacing is a great solution to simply tearing out all of the tiles, and will ensure your bathroom is both spotless and mold-free.

Vanities & Sinks

Many modern kitchens and bathrooms incorporate granite or marble into their countertops. It not only looks luxurious, but is easy to clean and durable. But it is understandable if you don't want to rip out and replace your entire bathroom vanity simply to get that marble finish. You should instead consider resurfacing. The effect is the same, and it will cost you hundreds, maybe thousands, less than a complete remodel.

Chipped or Stained Areas

Most consumers don't realize that chipped surfaces or hard-to-clean areas are great reasons to look into resurfacing. Years of water usage in a bathtub could leave the sides grimy and worn, but with resurfacing, the original materials could look brand new again. The same can be said for chipped tiles, floors, or showers; less than durable materials can be strengthened or reinforced without the cost of replacement.

If you're not sure whether your bathroom is a candidate for resurfacing, call remodeling contractors, and chances are, they can help in more ways than one. Consider the above information, and take a look at your bathroom to see if you could benefit from resurfacing today.
