Remodeling Your Bathroom for 2021

Dotcom Design • Jan 12, 2021

Every year, Waterloo and Cedar Falls, Iowa, bathroom remodeling experts create new trends that rock the area and cause everybody to change their approach. And 2021 should be no different. We expect a large number of trends to come and go again this year and think that it is vital for our customers to be prepared for them to ensure that they get the best results in a way that makes sense for them.

Tile Trends for 2021

The bathroom remodeling process often starts with the tiles of your floor and walls , as these provide a maximum of stylistic benefits without costing a lot of money to install and upgrade. However, every year sees some new trends in this field that must be adequately understood if you want to get the best results out of your home's latest upgrade. So what can you expect for tiles in the year 2021?

We think that geometric and patterned looks are going to be big again. Though this look has been somewhat cliché over the recent few years, surprising new bathroom design changes have made it popular again. Bathroom remodeling experts have been talking about utilizing shapes such as stars, various types of moons, and much more to produce a bold and innovative look for your bathroom.

But expect 2021 to be again a year of minimalism in this type of design. We don't expect that wild or extravagant looks will be big again for a few years. For now, minimalism and style are what is crucial for these looks. Beyond that, minimalist looks also help make a bathroom stronger by avoiding excessive materials that may end up just getting in the way and causing more issues than good.

New Shower Trends for 2021

We have been investigating bathroom remodeling trends towards the year 2021 , and we believe that the glass shower will be one of the biggest that you're going to see. The glass shower is a very modern update, both cool and relaxing, and is something that many people are going to want in the future this year. Here are a few other reasons why you might want to think of a glass shower.

First of all, they make your bathroom look bigger by creating a more open and elegant style. Rather than having expensive panes of marble or other materials, glass provides a simple and inexpensive building option. In some ways, you may be able to handle some of these upgrades on your own but probably want a professional to manage most of them to avoid any issues you may experience.

Just as importantly, the glass shower is something that we honestly can't see going out of style. The look that it provides is so striking that we anticipate seeing significant numbers in 2021. That said, it is important to warn that these showers offer no privacy for your cleaning, so you need to make sure nobody comes into your bathroom as you clean to avoid an embarrassing situation.

What to Expect for Bathtubs in 2021

Over the years, we have installed many bathtubs when doing bathroom remodeling in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. And many of our customers have asked up to change out their tub a few years later because they were chasing trends. Is it always wise to go after the latest look? That all depends on how much money you have to spend. We typically believe it is best to consider trends as secondary for your home.

But if you plan on doing any bathroom remodeling in the future, there's no point in ignoring trends if there is a payoff in the usefulness of an item. For example, many of our customers decide on stand-alone bathtubs that don't have a shower and use a standing, floor-level shower in their main bathrooms. There are a few reasons you may want to consider this approach instead of others.

First of all, a stand-alone bathtub is more comfortable to soak in when you want a little relaxation. And they are often easier to move and install, providing an easier process for you and your bathroom remodeling professionals. Even better, a standing floor-level shower allows you to age in place with grace and never go out of style, even if your bathtub is no longer quite what you want any more.
