Couples fight, it’s a fact. But, when you argue over a home renovation, things can get sticky. In Atlanta, bathtub refinishing is becoming increasingly popular and there is no arguing that. But what happens when you both agree to have your bathtub refinished but can’t agree on the same color? Most often, we refinish our bathtubs because they are dated. Those mauve or avocado green colors that were popular in the 70s and 80s just don’t work anymore. So the husband decides white is the way to go. But, hold on a minute…she wants to keep the green. How do you decide and keep your marriage in tact?
It’s okay to argue over what color scheme you are going to choose in your new bathroom. But, avocado green on your bathtub and/or tile surround is never okay. It wasn’t okay in 1970, it certainly isn’t right for today’s style trends. Since refinishing a bathtub is a pretty definite conclusion, having the right color choice is imperative. The husband has the right idea to choose white. Pick up the green on the walls or accessories like hand towels.
White is a neutral and basic color in bathrooms. It gives a fresh, clean look and goes with any other colors you choose to decorate your bathroom with. It is timeless. Bathrooms from the 1920’s to the 1950’s all used white as the main color in bathrooms, particularly the bathtub. Sometimes white can be a compromise.
Scratches, dents and holes in old bathtubs are really what the issue is about and why you are considering having your old bathtub refinished anyway.
