Bathroom Remodeling Trends in 2021

What is popular in bathroom remodeling in 2021 will most likely still be in demand when it is time to sell later, giving one a competitive edge. It is good to know what people are reporting as their must haves, to make sure yours isn’t missing out. Houzz did a survey of 1600 homeowners that were in the process of a master bathroom remodel in 2020 to determine what were the most popular features, styles and colors on trend. When asked why they were remodeling, sixty nine percent reported they were done with having an old or outdated space. They wanted more storage, bigger showers, better lighting and more countertop space.

The choice of hiring of professionals to design and complete the bathroom remodel remains high at 82%. For the first time, half of the bathroom remodeling projects removed the tub in order to have a larger shower, vanity, and more cabinetry. As long as there is another tub in the home, this is a viable choice.
