Out of all the rooms in your home, which do you think is used the most frequently? Some may say that it is the kitchen area or living room, and they would be right. A room that is sometimes forgotten but frequently used in the bathroom. Bathrooms with the right shower or bath can serve as a space to reset from the daily stressors of life. Outdated and damaged shower units can lower the overall value of your home. Check out these 3 indicators that your shower or bath is ready for a transformation.
Damaged Features
Features can range from the actual base unit to grab bars, temperature handles, or other affixed items like shelves. Even as the most obvious warning sign, damaged features are often ignored for quick fixes. Some indicators of damage include cracked tiles and dented tubs. Tub lines also pose risks for damage. Known for separation between the liner and original tub which is represented by a squishy feeling while in the shower. This squishy area creates a pocket of moist and warm air, leading to mold and a mess in between layers. Due to their application, this mold and mess are impossible to clean or investigate without complete removal.
Mold Buildup
As mentioned above, showers and baths provide the perfect environment for mold and fungal growth to take place. If you notice invasive bacterial growth, it is best to replace the entire unit. Mold poses a serious threat to you and your family’s health. Continuous exposure to this bacterial growth can cause symptoms of allergies and respiratory issues. Since mold is extremely difficult to remove, it is best to hire the professionals at Rite Window & Bath to replace the infested unit with a fresh shower and new fixtures. Since we go down to the studs of the unit, we eliminate any possible remnants of mold and have a replacement option that virtually eliminates the possibility for future mold growth with regular care and maintenance.
Outdated Appearance
At Rite Window & Bath many homeowners come to us in search of a more modern shower to replace their worn-out unit. We often arrive at a site of fiberglass units that are original to newer built homes. While these all-in-one units are usually not an eyesore, they do cause some loss of room within the shower or bath as it is not seamless to the wall, unlike our replacement units which sit flush to the wall. Other times we see bright or pastel-colored bath units that do not match the homeowner’s aesthetics.
Rite Window & Bath can help you upgrade your unit with an array of fixtures to match or rejuvenate your bathroom’s visual appearance. An upgrade will not only better suit your home’s style but will also add value to your home.
