Relaxing Bathroom Remodel

The home owner knew exactly what she wanted. It was a place to relax. Choosing a jetted tub with a heated liner was her first bathroom selection. The rest of the bathroom was designed around it.

Integrating black canyon colored silestone for all surfaces such as the vanity counter top, door threshold, shower niches and tub deck, created continuity throughout the bathroom. The various hues of brown used throughout all area helped to create a warm feeling.

Before

Wanting to add her own special touches, the homeowner asked Taylor Made to design and create three silestone niches to the shower; two for soap and shampoo and one as a foot rest for shaving.

Keeping with the relaxation theme, dimmer switched were installed so the amount of artificial light could be controlled. First thing in the morning, lights could be set bright but during a bath, the lights could be set low. New translucent blinds were installed on the window in this bathroom in order to maintain the delicate balance of natural lighting and privacy.

An extra tall maple cabinet was chosen to increase the amount of storage space. The rest of the vanity area was symmetrically designed with matching sinks and drawer bases. Rounded cabinets and counter top at the under mounted sinks created a unique layout that was truly custom.

Children’s Bathroom Receives an Update!

Primarily used by the two children in the household, this blue bathroom looked the part. Now they will be able to grow up using an updated version complete with the latest fixtures, accessories and materials.

Before

Storage being a priority, the existing closet was removed and replaced with a nine foot granite topped vanity. Complete with a center under stacked crown molding it doubles as towel ring holder and natural divider.

Directly under a tiled shower border, two niches were custom-built into the shower area to hold shampoo and soap for each child. A custom frame-less transparent shower door contributes to this bathroom’s spacious feel.

A new one piece high-profile toilet was set back for privacy purposes and a heated towel rack was mounted on the back wall. Warming up to 130 degrees and using 150 watts of power, not only does the rack warm towels, but helps keep the entire bathroom warm, mold and mildew free.

Because of the symmetrical design theme, each child now has their own mirror, sink, drawer,and base cabinetry with pull out laundry basket. It’s architecturally functional and reduces sibling rivalries which any parent can appreciate.

Elegant & Rustic Design in one Bathroom!

In conjunction with a newly remodeled basement, this bathroom was added utilizing the same color scheme and overall design as the main area.

Incorporating the various shades of brown for tile, paint, fixtures, and wood helped enhance its rustic design. The granite topped cherry wood vanity was custom fabricated to house a vessel sink and bronze lever faucet.

As a unique architectural feature, matching granite corner shelves were created adjacent to the vanity and in the shower area.

A transparent custom frame less hinged shower door served as a stylish and space saving option.


This bathroom proves that elegant and rustic design can complement each other.

Walk-in closet becomes a bathroom!

This master bathroom needed remodeling to fit into the elegant style of a colonial home.

By changing the adjacent walk-in closet into a huge walk in shower, the room was now adequately sized for the home. The new oversized shower allowed for a full seat, three faucets, and a doorway.

The remaining space completely revamped to include a furniture style vanity with double bowl sinks and custom mosaic patterns throughout.

The new floor pan provided a large area for the commode almost separate from the main bathroom area. The incorporation of a half wall provided privacy without the restriction of another door.
