Replacing a toilet can lower your utility bill while leading to better hygiene and enhancing your bathroom’s setting. Determining when to make the replacement can be challenging, especially when faced with financial limitations. Below, the professionals from Forever Builders, the modern bathroom design and remodel experts Rancho Santa Fe homeowners have trusted for more than 20 years, explain some of the advantages of replacing your toilet during a bathroom remodeling project.
You Can Avoid Multiple Projects at Different Times
A variety of professionals can take on parts of a bathroom remodeling project, including flooring installers and plumbers. This allows them all to be on-site at once, preventing the need for separate future projects regarding the flooring and plumbing. As a result, you can get the job done without needing to coordinate future labor or project scheduling.
You’re avoiding potential issues now during the remodeling stages, such as new leaks that occur after installation, which can cause deteriorated seals and gaskets. Instead, the new toilet is being installed, and its new internal components will keep it up to date and less prone to need immediate repairs.
It’s More Affordable
Placing product, labor, and disruption costs into the same project at once can eliminate the need for extra work and product costs in the future.
Flooring and wall work can be done around the same time. You can incorporate plumbing fees into the remodeling project, and you can also prevent the expenses tied to repairs and water damage from a failing toilet, boost energy efficiency, and potentially qualify for government tax credits or local utility rebates.
The long-term savings from replacing a toilet during a bathroom remodeling project make it even more of an excellent choice. You’re saving on future utility and maintenance costs, which can increase your home value. This is due to many factors, such as a new toilet using fewer gallons per flush than the older one you’re replacing.
There Will Be Fewer Disruptions
Integrating a toilet replacement into the existing timeline of a bathroom remodeling project can be good for timing and reduce the odds of separate repairs later or other unplanned issues. Since the remodel will already involve disruption throughout the home, you can remove and install everything now while the bathroom is under construction, preventing a future project that would cause more disruptions to your household’s daily life.
Having the toilet replaced before the new flooring is installed removes the need to do it after. The key to fewer disruptions is convenient access.
You Can Increase the Comfort and Appearance of Your Bathroom
Achieving a full, updated, efficient, and appealing bathroom is easier to do when remodeling the space and adding a modern toilet at the same time. This not only increases your comfort by meeting your current needs, but it also promotes better hygiene due to the self-cleaning functions within the bathroom and the sleek designs of the toilet and shower.
The old décor will be removed, preventing an outdated toilet from weighing your room down and being an eyesore. The product is more up to date, complementing the style and finish of the new fixtures.
