How to Find the Right Style and Bathtub Brand For You

When embarking on a new home improvement project, such as a bathroom remodel, many people aren't quite sure where to start. First, you need to narrow down the fixtures you need to replace, keeping your end design goal in mind. There's nothing worse than a half-done home improvement project, so decide what items you want to replace and what you want your bathroom to look like when you're done.

If you have decided that it's time to replace that old tub? There are so many options out there, and two important questions come to mind. What style of bathtub should you get, and what brand should you go with? Firstly, you will want to pick a bathtub style that works with the space you have and one that will match your design idea. If you want an old fashioned bathroom, you will probably want to look at clawfoot tubs or cast iron bathtubs to create the desired effect. If you want a more modern look, then perhaps a whirlpool bathtub would fit the bill, or if you want to make your bathroom look bigger, you can opt for a corner bathtub. Whichever style you choose, remember that this is your dream bathroom, and there is a tub out there for every unique dcor.

Another question many homeowners have is what brand of bathtub they should get. Replacing a bathtub is a big and costly undertaking, so you want to go with a quality brand so that you tub lasts for a long time. Of course, we all remember those hokey commercials, like the Kohler bathtub ones, but just because they advertise doesn't mean that they are necessarily the right brand for you. If you find a bathtub you like, make sure you to do your homework on the manufacturer and look at consumer reports for this brand. Sometimes the highest quality brands may be ones you've never heard of, but when you install their fixtures in your house, you will be so happy you took the time to research and find the highest quality bathtub for your buck.

Most importantly, have fun creating the bathroom you've always wanted with your remodel. Just keep things simple, and as long as you do your homework, you will be able to enjoy your new bathroom for many, many years to come!
