Why Renovate Instead of Move: Making the Most of Your Colorado Home

Bathrooms are more than a place to brush your teeth and wash your hands. Whether it’s a primary bathroom where you are getting ready for the day or unwinding at night, or a powder room for friends and family to use when they visit, bathrooms are a place for comfort, functionality, and aesthetic appeal. Like every area of a home, bathrooms need updates to keep your home comfortable and looking its best. Renovations are no small undertaking and homeowners expect a result that is stunning and will last for many years to come. That’s why it’s important to work with a general contractor to create a design that aligns with modern trends as well as your personal style and preferences. Bathroom and Bathroom Renovation Trends in 2025: Showers Many homeowners are swapping out their bathtubs to make space for large showers. They don’t use their bathtubs due to lack of time juggling family life and work or just personal preference. Luxurious shower features, such as multiple shower heads and wall jets that are controlled independently are growing in popularity. Sleek and clear designs are in so a lot of clients are opting for showers with curbless entries and frameless glass enclosures. Tile is still by far the most dominant material for showers due to its durability and the multitude of style and color options available. Freestanding tubs For bath lovers who can’t bring themselves to eliminate their tub, the trend is to opt for freestanding tubs that take us less floor space thus still allowing for a bigger shower while also maintaining a modern look. Many homeowners replace their built-in, bulky jet tub with a sleek, contemporary freestanding tub. Patterns/Colors If you read our blog on kitchen renovation trends , you know that light, understated paint colors are in. Paint colors such as grays and sometimes greens are the primary selections we’ve been seeing for bathroom renovations due to their elegant and relaxing nature. Although grays remain the predominant choice, that doesn’t mean the design is plain and boring. Using different tiling patterns on showers and floors while staying within the same color palette is one way many clients create some contrast and uniqueness while maintaining a modern, simple look and feel. Flooring Tile and luxury vinyl plank (LVP) flooring remain the most popular choices for bathroom floors.LVP is a great choice for any bathroom, but especially for homeowners with children and/or pets. It is also a very popular choice for rental property owners who are looking for ways to minimize maintenance costs. Heated floors are also gaining popularity, especially with Colorado’s cold winter weather. Storage Lack of storage is a major pain point we hear from clients so new linen closets and large vanities that have plenty of drawers are now a higher priority with homeowners. In the past, vanities, sinks, and countertops had to be installed separately; however, high-quality all-in-one vanities that reduce installation costs are now readily available.. Although grays and whites are still the dominant colors for paint, natural wood colors are trending for bathroom vanities and cabinets. Finishes & Fixtures It’s the little things that make a big difference when it comes to renovations. That’s why homeowners have been opting for luxurious details, from heated towel bars to fancy remote controlled bidet toilets to awning style windows that allow homeowners to enjoy the Colorado weather while getting ready for the day. Details such as black towel bars and matching door hinges paired with lighter coloring throughout bathrooms, help make the design pop. However, finishes are not limited to black, bronze/black hues, brush nickel, and high-quality gold fixtures are making a comeback. Preferences change over time and cause shifts in home renovation trends. Consumers are valuing functionality AND style when it comes to home projects. Lighter, brighter designs bring a fresh new look into homes that occupants can enjoy for years to come. Looking to upgrade your bathroom with a top-tier renovation in the Denver metro area?
