Modern Bathroom Remodeling Trends in 2020

Updated: Dec 18, 2020

Written by Matt Lee


The bathroom is one room in the house that tends to see trends come and go pretty quickly. 2020 is no different, with a variety of new remodeling projects gaining popularity this year. If you’re looking to add a new look as well as some style and functionality to your bathroom this year, here are some modern bathroom remodeling trends for you to consider.


One of the most prominent bathroom remodeling trends for 2020 is the swapping out of old countertops for new quartz bathroom countertops. Quartz has long been prized for its combination of durability and natural beauty. With more colors of quartz countertops available than ever before, it's safe to say the price of quartz countertops is more than worth it right now if you’re looking to remodel.


2. Aging in Place Features

If you have elderly housemates or elderly family and loved ones who you expect to visit, aging in place features are a great option for you. We’ve seen a huge uptick in safety-related materials for homes, especially for bathroom remodeling in 2020.


Items like non-slip flooring, curved edges, walk-in showers, and home handrails are all able to add a precious element of safety to any home expecting the elderly or physically disabled. Handrails are especially useful and there are even home handrail kits for purchase that can be easily installed by any homeowner with a few basic tools laying around.

3. Eco-Friendly Materials

With global warming and the environmental crisis not showing any signs of improving, the migration to eco-friendly materials of all types has really taken off this year. For your 2020 bathroom remodel, consider swapping out your conventional lighting system for a skylight and some LED lights for nighttime.


You could also introduce some Bamboo instead of opting for more heavily treated hardwoods. Bamboo makes for great cabinet material as well as excellent flooring material.


4. Deep Soaking Tubs

If you’re a bath person, the deep soaking tub is one trend you’ll be delighted to learn has come back into style. There are many styles to choose from and you can’t go wrong with any of them, but the solo black tub is really chic right now.


5. Marbleized Wallpaper

This is one way to add a vivid, dramatic element to your bathroom without breaking the bank. Marbleized wallpaper can be found in various different colors with a variety of original patterns to choose from. A grey background with gold cracks and streaks is just one example of a style that’s hot right now.


Upgrade your Bathroom with the Hottest Trends in 2020

Exciting innovations have been made in bathroom decor lately, allowing homeowners to get really creative with their remodeling projects. In 2020, the remodels we’ve listed here are guaranteed to add some pizzazz, sophistication, and even an element of safety to your bathroom.


For an especially creative addition, try adding marbleized wallpaper, a deep soaking tub, or new quartz countertops. For eco-friendliness and functionality, bamboo floors and cabinets as well as a skylight and LED lights can work wonders.


Aging-in-place safety features like handrails and non-slip mats are great as well, and any one of these trends would look right at home in your fresh new bathroom.
