The time has come to make plans for a renovation of the master bathroom. One of the issues to settle is what will happen with the bathtub. Would it be wise to spend money making some repairs or would it be best to scrap the current tub and buy a new one? Here are some of the reasons why opting for a Bathtub Repair makes sense.
The Tub is Still in Decent Shape
Outside of a few minor problems, the current bathtub suits the needs of the family. It is long enough for even the tallest member of the household to enjoy a nice soak. In terms of design, it will fit in fine with the plans for changing the color and general look of the space. What it does need is some resurfacing and possibly a new drain. Assuming the tub still works just fine and does not need much in the way of repairs, why not keep it for a little longer?
The Cost of Replacement
Another point in favor of going with a Bathtub Repair is that the expense is likely to be much lower than buying and installing a new one. This is certainly true if the repairs are mainly cosmetic in nature. Think of how much money can be saved by resurfacing the old tub to give it a new look. All that cash can be devoted to doing something else with the space and ensure the renovation comes in under budget.
Memories
For those who are a little sentimental, getting rid of the old tub may be difficult. Thinking back, that tub was where the parents bathed the children when they were young. It also provided more than one opportunity for the parents to get away from it all and have some time to themselves. If the memories connected with the tub are strong and it is worth the money, go ahead and make the repairs.
