To their credit, many of my clients often reach out to me prior to undertaking a home renovation to help them determine which changes will ultimately contribute to the resale value and marketability of their home - and which will not.
Recently, one client contacted me and asked whether they should consider installing a urinal when they redo the primary bath. Without skipping a beat, my response: "HELL YEAH!". Although we have entertained countless people on the first floor of our home for political fundraisers, benefits, and social events, few people know that a top priority when renovating our house was installing a urinal in the sanctum of our primary bath.
From a utility perspective on a day-to-day basis (and let’s face it, on a night-by-night basis), the urinal shouldn't be overlooked when you're looking for ways to improve your home. Whether it's a urinal or a shower bench or a make-up table, let me be clear: it's always important to balance the goal of maximizing resale value with your own personal needs and wants.
Obviously with a family of four guys, I’m biased. In my mind, the urinal was a higher priority than a pot filler. Or an ice machine. Or under-cabinet lighting. Or a playset for the kids.
No matter what improvements you are contemplating for your home (from urinals to motorized shades to a new backsplash), please don't hesitate to reach out to me for guidance.
