A bathroom addition involves taking extra space inside your home and transforming it into an extra bathroom. There are many reasons why you should consider a bathroom addition if you have extra space in your home.

This review discusses the most notable benefits of a bathroom addition to help you determine if calling a contractor is right for you.

The most notable benefits of a bathroom addition are the increased bathroom space that makes the morning easier for your entire family, an improved experience for guests, more privacy for you and your family members, and a safer and more convenient bathroom experience.

Of course, a bathroom addition is also a great way to add value to your home as well. The specific benefits you receive may vary depending on your purpose for the project and your budget, and you can learn more about the benefits by discussing your plans with a bathroom remodeling contractor.

According to the National Association of Realtors, the majority of bathroom additions are completed to “improve the overall livability of [the] home.” One of the most commonly reported problems families have is not enough bathroom space. This is particularly true for expanding families. As children grow older, they start to value their time in the mornings to get ready.

When three or more family members share a bathroom, then it can be a challenge for everyone to get ready the way they desire in the morning. Subsequently, a bathroom addition is a great way to make your home more livable and make the mornings and nights easier for everyone inside your home.

The fact is guests would prefer not to share their bathroom with tons of people. If you frequently have friends and family come to visit, then you can greatly benefit from a bathroom addition.

This makes it easier to provide your guests with all the space they need to feel comfortable without inconveniencing you or other members of your family. The added privacy is certain to impress your guests and allow them to enjoy their visit much more.

Not only do your guests enjoy more bathroom privacy when they visit, but you and your family can benefit from it as well.

Whether you want to take a peaceful and relaxing bath after a long day of work or enjoy taking more time to get ready in the morning without keeping others waiting, a bathroom addition is a great way to give yourself added privacy and more time to get ready and wind down each day.

This is a benefit that often goes overlooked but is incredibly valuable for certain homeowners. If you or someone you know has a disability or has a harder time moving around due to age-related reasons, then a bathroom addition is a great way to add a bathroom specifically designed for optimal safety and convenience.

For example, if you want to reduce the risk of a bathroom fall, then you can add a new bathroom that features non-slip floors and handrails.

A walk-in shower is also a great way to reduce the risk of falling. Adding a first-floor bathroom to make it more easily accessible may be a good option as well.

One of the main reasons homeowners ultimately decide to go through with a bathroom addition is because the addition can add significant value to their home.

In fact, many homeowners see more than a 60 percent return on their investment, along with getting to enjoy the other benefits that a home bathroom addition can add.

A common misconception among homeowners is that adding a bathroom to your home requires a lot of extra unused space. However, there are many creative ways to seamlessly implement a new bathroom in your home. Several examples of areas where you may be able to add a bathroom to your home include:

• Extra space in a larger bedroom
• Extra hallway space
• A larger closet in your home

Of course, there are many other areas where a bathroom addition may work well.
