DO YOU DREAM OF A SPA-LIKE ESCAPE?
Many homeowners dream of having a spa-like escape within their own home to soak away the stress of the work day, but their current master bathroom just isn't cutting it. The shower is too small, the tub can't be used because it leaks into the family room below, and the look is outdated and tired.
You get to the point where you can't stand dealing with it any longer, and you decide it's time for a change.
Perhaps all you really need for your escape is a larger walk-in shower. It could be tiled, enclosed in floor-to-ceiling glass, have multiple shower heads, and have a bench to relax on as the hot water blankets your body. If you're tired of knocking shampoo and shower gel bottles off those little ledges or scattering them into the floor corners, you might consider adding a couple tiled niches in the walls of the shower. We also recommend including a foot niche or shaving bench in the design so that shaving doesn't have to be a balancing act.
Making The Most Out Of Your New Bathroom
You could, however, be a tub person. Maybe you prefer a sleek free-standing tub or jetted Jacuzzi to soak in along with a few scented candles lit around the perimeter-or a few dozen? Or do you prefer having your whirlpool sunken into the tub deck and only need a facelift with porcelain, slate, mosaic tile, or even teak wood?
Your current bathroom might not have enough space to keep everything organized and tidy. A custom his-and-hers vanity with soft-close doors and drawers can provide you with more storage for all your bathroom accessories. Many homeowners have a mirror medicine cabinet installed above their vanity for even more storage, and adding a linen cupboard to the space keeps all your bath towels and washcloths handy.
