as well. Some light fixtures offer heat lamps that can create a mini-sauna for the bathroom that works in conjunction with your ventilation systems. As a rule, eliminating dark spaces and inadequate lighting adds value for potential home buyers. PAINT Like lighting, one of the more inexpensive and effective ways to spruce up your bathroom is to invest in a few cans of fresh paint. Pay careful attention to how you paint if you choose to go DIY, however; attention to detail is critical and a few blobs of paint on the tub, sink, and so forth can undermine the improvements you’ve made. Also be sure to find a high quality, mold- resistant paint that can ward off mold growth, and don’t forget to paint the ceiling, where hard-to-clean surfaces can be breeding grounds for mold and mildew. UPDATE THE FIXTURES The little details do matter, especially under the scrutiny of those who view your home with an eye to buying it. This includes the light fixtures, door knobs, towel racks, cabinet handles and so forth, all which can rust and degrade from constant use and moist atmosphere.
