"You will probably get contractors who will say that oversized bathtub or storage issues [are the issue], but [it's definitely] overly bold and gaudy choices when it comes to paint or tiles and fixtures,"
"This is fine if a homeowner intends to stay for 10 to 15 years, because they will end up changing it anyway before reselling it. But if they intend to move in less than five years, the homeowner will unfortunately not recoup that money and will likely have to redo at least part of that bathroom to appeal to the majority of the buyers,"
"Having too many hero tiles in a space is great when getting creative and imagi"
Bathroom renovations require balancing aesthetics and functionality, including choices like tub versus walk-in shower, vanity versus pedestal sink, and showerhead style. Real-life use often differs from Pinterest expectations, so practical needs should guide design. Contractors identify overly bold paint, tile, and fixtures as the most common regret, especially when designs are gaudy or feature multiple hero tiles. Bold choices can be acceptable for owners staying ten to fifteen years, but homeowners planning to move within five years typically will not recoup the cost and may need to redo parts to appeal to most buyers.
