Outdated Bathroom Trends That Need to be Replaced

John Coker • February 26, 2020
Popular bathroom designs can change quickly. Before you know it, certain fixtures, countertops, or other parts of your bathroom could end up looking outdated. Fortunately, Builders Warehouse is here to help you keep up with the latest bathroom design styles. If you’re planning to invest in a bathroom remodel, you may want to take a look at some outdated trends that should definitely be replaced first.

Removing the Tub

For a while there, some homeowners thought that removing the tub in their bathroom and replacing it with a luxurious shower was a good idea. In some cases it might work, and if there are only adults living there it might be a nice perk, but there's a major problem with that. It can lower the appeal of your house if you go to sell it. Not having a tub can make your home less attractive to some buyers, like those with kids. You can get a fresher look for your bathroom without removing a crucial part of it. You could opt for our unique shower fixtures instead, giving your bath and shower an updated look without reducing its appeal to future home buyers.

Themed Bathrooms

Sometimes homeowners want to give their bathroom a theme. Maybe they want to go for a retro look or a design that’s reminiscent of a favorite vacation destination. Unfortunately, these trends can wear out their welcome quickly. Going with a more modern look doesn't have to be boring. We offer a variety of fixtures, vanity, and other options to bring your bathroom into the future without making it bland.

No Storage Options

If you've opted for a more minimalist look for your bathroom you may run into a small problem. We're talking about a lack of useful storage options. Instead you can add in one of our versatile bathroom vanities, all of which offer plenty of storage space.

Muted Colors

Shades like beige were popular in bathrooms for a while, but these muted colors are being replaced with bolder, darker colors that can mesh better with more contemporary bathroom designs. All white bathrooms are fading in popularity as well. We can help you find the right shade for your bathroom and a marble vanity top that works well with your chosen color palette.

Floating Sinks

Once these were a popular option for homeowners who wanted a more streamlined look for their bathroom, but they're going out of style lately for a few reasons. They reduce storage space, since they don't use a vanity. As a result, they can be less appealing to potential buyers later on. Instead, one of our vessel sinks can update your bathroom without the need to remove a vanity and reduce your available storage space. With so many marble and granite countertop options, you won't have a problem finding a pattern for your bathroom vanity that you'll love.
