A Professional’s Guide to your Bathroom Remodel

 

After years of saving, begging and Pinterest boarding inspiration, it is finally time to create the bathroom you’ve been yearning for.

 

 But, what seems like an easy and exciting task can quickly become a daunting one. With an overwhelming number of brands and styles, where do you start?

 

When thinking about the direction you want to go with the style of your bathroom, it’s always good to think of yourself first. What do you like? What are your needs? What do you want? And most importantly, what kind of feelings are you trying to evoke? Once you determine that, you will have an easier time defining your style and what you like without feeling overwhelmed.

 

We’ve seen our fair share of bathrooms, so to help you get a better idea of what a certain style might look like, we’ve narrowed the most-liked styles based off our customer base into four categories.

 

Traditional: You love all the design that decades past have to offer. You enjoy timeless classics with old world charm. Throughout your home you may come across certain period patterns and finishes such as bronze and floral.

Contemporary: Sleek design and pure lines are for you. Your dream rooms are crafted from wood, metals, polymers and glass. Bold geometric shapes and splashes of color offset neutral tone-on-tone colorings in your spaces.

Transitional: Do you notice your style is a cross between traditional and contemporary?

Don’t forget, any project in your home should start with a simple checklist. It’s a great way to get yourself organized!

Here is an example:

• Set your budget
• Set a completion date
• DIY or Professional Route? If you’re hiring a professional this is the stage you should get one on board.
• Choose your paints, tiles & finishes
• Head to Splash & Spritzo showrooms to get help with your faucets, fixtures, toilets and more.
• Accessorize 

 

Good luck and we look forward to seeing which style you choose when visiting our Showrooms!
