If you plan on selling your home or aren’t ready for a major remodel, the news is even better. A minor remodel is $23,695 and returns $22,711 in value. That means you recoup almost 96% of the cost. Buyers look for fresh kitchens and a minor kitchen remodel just might be what gets your home noticed and sold quickly.

Bathroom Remodeling

Bathroom Renovation Company Gives Tips for an Inviting Guest Bath

By Inspired Remodels / Bathroom Remodel, Home Improvement / Comments Off

The holiday season is upon us. If you had guests over the Thanksgiving holiday, did you make them feel welcome in every room of your home? Inspired Remodels, the Orange County bathroom renovation company that designs and builds master bathrooms, guest bathrooms, and spa bathrooms has some tips on how you can make holiday guests feel at home in the bathroom.

Start with a Clean Slate

Start out with a squeaky clean slate. Even if a bathroom doesn’t get used often, it does get dirty. Dust collects on fixtures and on rugs and towels. Make sure the bathroom is freshly scrubbed and scoured before your guest arrives. Even if you don’t have the time or inclination to do the scrubbing yourself, hire a service to clean the bathroom. Many cleaning services will perform one-time cleaning services. If you are busy, this is a great task to outsource and Groupons are often available for cleaning services.

scrub and remove clutter

If you do the cleaning yourself, be sure to clean behind the toilet, where dust collects and replace linens. Evaluate the shower curtain liner. If it looks dirty or dingy, many vinyl liners can be cleaned in the washer with a bleach solution to remove mold and mildew.

Remove all personal items and store them out-of-sight.

Set Out Deluxe Linens

Invest in a set of luxury bath linens. This is a splurge that will pay off for years to come. High thread count, thick bath linens will make your guests think your home has a spa feel every day of the week. You don’t need to tell them otherwise.

Two-ply towels are more absorbent than one-ply towels. Don’t use fabric softener on your towels. Fabric softener leaves a coating that reduces the absorbency of the towel. For fresh smelling, soft bath linens, use a fabric softener sheet in the dryer instead.

Think of Everything

These days, travel by air means leaving behind razors, tweezers, and full size toiletries. Stock up your guest bath with everything your guest may have left behind or need during the stay. They will appreciate your thoughtfulness. Items to stock include:

toothbrushes
mouthwash
hairbrushes
razors
tweezers
shampoo
conditioner
body lotion
cotton balls
cotton swabs
ibuprofen
antacid
multi-symptom cold medicine
feminine hygiene products

Your guest will appreciate your thoughtfulness and be happy to skip an emergency trip to the store

Spa Experience on Dollar Budget

Stocking your guest bathroom doesn’t have to cost a fortune. The dollar stores are filled with loofa sponges, bath salts, perfumed lotions, body brushes, and other spa-like bathroom supplies.

Set a basket with spa supplies on the edge of the tub to encourage your guests to soak travel stress away.

Stock Up On Spa Supplies

Repair and Replace

If you have been putting off replacing worn or leaking faucets or shower heads, this is a great time to make those repairs. Some leaky faucets just need a new washer. Here’s how to make this simple faucet repair. Shower heads can be replaced in just a few minutes. Leaks waste water and money. Leaks also add to hard water deposits. If your toilet leaks, check the fill valve and the flush valve. These parts are also easily replaced.

Leaks waste water and money. Stop leaks.

Bathroom Renovation

It’s too late to renovate before your holiday guests arrive. But it isn’t too late to start planning for a bathroom renovation. You will be ready to start the new year with a new look for your guest bathroom.

Inspired Remodels is the bathroom renovation company that will work with you to create a guest bath to wow even the most finicky guest.
