One of the interesting trends I have been observing recently is an upsurge of interest in bathroom remodels. There are probably several reasons for this, including the fact that bathroom remodels are relatively inexpensive, and perceived to have good “bang for the buck”. Since money is harder to borrow these days, paying for a bathroom remodel with all cash is generally a lot easier than a major kitchen remodel, for example.
If there is one theme we are seeing here at Design Build Specialists, it is an emphasis on Comfort. Our customers are often replacing a tub with a walk-in shower, which is easier to get in and out of, and can look stunning. We’re doing a lot of work with glass tiles combined with ceramic and porcelain tile inlays for some great looks.
We’re also seeing a lot of vessel sinks on a furniture cabinet with a beautiful countertop, and some really interesting faucets. We have a number of examples of this in the Portfolio section of our website.
Finally, heated floors are a real luxury item. They are somewhat expensive to run (an extra $20-30 per month typically), but if a homeowner has a relatively fixed morning schedule where the floor can be automatically heated up at the same time everyday, a heated floor provides fantastic comfort.
Give us a call here at Design Build Specialists if you’d like to discuss a bathroom or any other home remodel.
