A new toilet doesn’t just provide greater functional value, it can also play a key role in giving your bathroom a modern appearance. With a wealth of different styles available, you can consult your home remodeling contractor about which particular toilet model will be the best fit for your desires and budget. Here are five reasons to install a new toilet.
Improved Water-Efficiency
For both financial and environmental reasons, it’s worth installing a toilet that is more water-efficient. If your toilet was installed before the 1990s, then it wasn’t subject to modern water-efficiency standards and could be using more than five times the water per flush as a new water-saving toilet.
Greater Comfort
While it might not be a plush La-Z-Boy, your toilet should still provide a measure of comfort. Although you might prioritize utilitarian value with your toilet selection, it’s still worth taking into account matters such as height and seat dimensions.
Visual Appeal
If you recently bought a home that was built before 1980 and it still has its original toilet with its bright pastels, then your bathroom is going to look only as modern as that toilet. Modern toilet designs are sleek and stylish and are generally preferred in neutral tones, though there are still some colorful toilet options available, but even those have a more contemporary look.
Leaking
When a toilet leaks, costly water damage can ensue, especially if the leak has gone unnoticed for a while. Oftentimes, it makes more economic sense to invest in a new toilet rather than pay for the repairs on an old one.
Replacing Bathroom Floor
If you’re getting your bathroom floor replaced, then you’re probably going to have to remove your toilet. It’s worth considering installing a new toilet at this point because you’ve already done much of the necessary work.
