One of the general questions our team is usually asked is how to plan a bathroom remodel. Before we can help you design your dream bathroom, our experts will have to learn more about you and your personal style preferences. We’ll meet with you to discuss changing floor plans, details such as cabinet and counter style, the materials used throughout the project, and your overall budget. Using the information we gather during this step, we can help you design a bathroom space that fits your home, budget, and expectations.

The time it takes to create and finalize your bathroom’s new design plans depends entirely on how complex the project is. Changing a bathroom’s floor plan or implementing large structural changes to the space will mean longer design times. Many projects are in the design phase for two to four weeks, but larger, more complex ventures could take up to six weeks or more.

The timeframe of any bathroom remodeling project relies on a few details. The most significant contributing factor to your project’s schedule is the complexity of the design and the availability of the materials you’ve chosen. To get a better idea of how long your personal project will take, it’s always a good idea to meet with the designers to give you a better idea of the scope of time needed for project completion during the design process.

Though having a large soaking tub in your master bathroom certainly has its charm, homeowners are finding more and more often that removing the tub to make way for a larger, more open shower is far more appealing. Removing a tub has the potential to vastly increase the space in your bathroom as well. In most cases, the tub is easy enough to remove once the professionals get involved. However, if the tub cannot be removed for budgeting purposes or any other reason, refinishing it to give the space more life is always an excellent option.

Larger, more open showers are becoming a must-have for modern homeowners. However, they require a significant amount of floor space to install. If your bathroom has the appropriate amount of floor space (or floor space can be made by removing your tub), the professionals at Bathcrest can build you the shower of your dreams without a hassle. However, if obtaining the needed floor space is impossible, we can still offer you a number of shower options that look and feel larger and more open while still fitting perfectly into your smaller bathroom space.

During your bathroom remodeling process, you can choose to change the room’s lighting to create a brighter, more welcoming appeal. Built-in vanity lights are a classic that bathrooms worldwide continue to take advantage of, while simple ceiling lighting offers a functional and space-saving alternative to bulky wall sconces. If you have high ceilings, you may be able to hang a chandelier over your tub, giving the remodeled space a touch more glitz and glamour.

Unless your bathroom remodels involve extensive rearrangement or expansion, it will usually be possible to preserve your existing flooring if desired. If you have extra tile on hand, our experts can use the additional materials to fill in as needed throughout the project to keep your bathroom tile looking gorgeous.

The short answer is, yes, you do need an exhaust fan in your bathroom. Because bathroom appliances create so much moisture, these spaces are prime targets for household water damage. Over time, moisture seeps into the walls and may cause structural issues, mildew, or mold growth. We will work with you, though, to find an exhaust fan that works with your existing design, so you get both the look and functionality you need at the end of your bathroom improvement experience.

Walk-in tubs serve as a way to future-proof your home and allow you and your family members to more safely “age in place.” Tub slip and falls are extremely dangerous for the elderly and those who have impaired mobility. Walk-in tubs seek to solve the issue of slip and falls by making tubs more accessible. Bathcrest offers a wide variety of stylish, practical, and forward-thinking walk-in solutions for bathrooms of all shapes and sizes.
