Thanks to COVID I have a pretty open calendar ahead of me and was considering using the down time to update my very dated bathroom. It is a small bathroom (probably 7 x 7) and the only full bath in the townhouse and there is not that much you can do with the space. What do you think would be best?
1. Remove the tub and put in a really cool shower with a bench;
2. Replace the tub with another standard, alcove tub;
3. Replace with a deep, stand-alone tub and tile the walls;
4. Save the money and just reglaze the old tub.
My place is in the moderate price range and my guests stay 1-3 months and range in age from 40-80. In the winter months I almost always host retirees from the Northern US and Canada. I had always planned on renovating the bathroom with a stand-alone claw and ball style tub so I could take nice long baths but with so many of my guests being seniors I worry getting in and out might be an issue.
Thanks for your feedback!
