Remodeling your bathroom is the perfect way to create a home that looks more modern and feels more functional. Whether you have a small bathroom that needs to be more usable or desire an updated bathroom that looks more modern, the custom home-building experts at Richardson Brothers Custom Homes can make your dream bathroom a reality.
When planning a bathroom remodel, you want to ensure that you’re using the best materials. Great materials should last for a long time while being durable enough to withstand humidity, foot traffic, and water spills.
So here are some of the best materials to use in the bathroom:
Countertop Materials
When picking a countertop material or any other bathroom materials, there isn’t one perfect answer. Instead, you can choose from some overall solid options and find what suits your style and lifestyle needs the best.
Common materials for countertops are marble, granite, glass, and zinc. If you want something that lasts a long time, granite or marble is likely your best bet. But, if you want bright colors that will hold their vibrancy for years, glass might be the better option for you.
Flooring Materials
The flooring in your bathroom is going to be put through a lot. From a lot of foot traffic to water splashes from the tub or shower, you need flooring that can withstand it all. For bathrooms, the most suitable options are natural stone tile, ceramic tile, or vinyl.
When comparing these, remember that vinyl floors are resistant to water damage and easy to maintain. On the other hand, tile floors are also durable and come in many styles and colors. Since they are all durable and hold up against water, it ultimately comes down to personal preference.
Other Materials to Consider
Flooring and countertops are two of the most important elements of any bathroom, so you’ll want to take extra time to figure out which of these materials works best for you. However, you’ll also want to ensure you pick good materials for things like your toilet, light fixtures, and other finishings.
For toilets, many homeowners today try to find an option that saves water while still looking elegant. Regarding finishing light fixtures, going with the cheapest option isn’t always the best. Instead, you want to pick more durable materials that look timeless, so you don’t need to switch them out constantly.
