If you’re ready to take your bathroom to the next level with a bathroom remodel, you may feel a bit overwhelmed. The process is actually much easier and can go much smoother than you may initially think. Remodeling any room can be a big project, and it is one that you surely want to get done correctly. Selecting the right contractor to work with is essential to ensuring a smooth process from start to finish.

In order to find the right contractor for the job, it will take a bit of research. It is important to choose someone who is skilled, experienced, and has a great reputation for satisfying clients. A face to face meeting is the first step to take. Any contractor worth hiring will be willing to meet with homeowners to discuss their desires for the project.

A trustworthy and skilled remodeler will take the time to go over questions and concerns. They should be able to provide a rough estimate for the total cost and length of time that the bathroom remodel will require. If homeowners feel confident after that first meeting, then it is important to make sure that the contractor is licensed and insured. Remodeling projects can run smoothly and successfully with the right professional taking on the work.

Take Advantage of your Space with a Bathroom Remodel

by Columbus Bath Design |October 7, 2014 |0 Comments | Bathroom Remodeling Tips, Uncategorized

Bathroom remodeling creates vibrant new decor and pleasant comfort within a home. Presently you may have a bathroom that was designed without the touch and insight a professional bathroom remodeler can provide. It could be that it was not constructed with materials that are easy to clean or designed to take advantage of the space available. When considering upgrading or remodeling your bathroom, contracting a professional  will give you much more desired results that will sustain the usage that is common with bathrooms in our homes.

When remodeling a bathroom with a limited amount of space, there are important considerations regarding both form and function.  Single handed fixtures versus separate hot and cold taps are a fantastic way to free up extra space, along with wall mounted toilets and faucets.  Wall mounted vanities can save space, however, the gap from the vanity to the floor often creates an underutilized empty space.  In some cases a vanity that stretches completely to the floor can actually help free up extra space for the entire bathroom by providing a more robust storage option.

A beautiful bathroom is a point of pride in our homes, whether it is for personal use or visitors. When your guests visit, be sure they are amazed by the accommodations that have been created in such a small space. Contact Columbus Bath Design Systems of Central Ohio today to begin discussing the bathroom transformation that you’ve been dreaming of.

Preventing Bathroom Mold with Acrylic Wall Systems

by Columbus Bath Design |September 22, 2014 |1 Comments | Bathroom Maintenance, Uncategorized | ,

Mold spores are most likely to develop in warm, damp areas. Unfortunately, the bathroom is often a high-temperature, high-humidity space, making it very susceptible to this issue. Routine use of vented ceiling fans or leaving bathroom doors and windows open after hot baths or showers will moderate temperature and humidity, however, this may not be sufficient for preventing all instances of mold and mildew growth. The good news is that the following tips will make it easy for you to maintain a pristine and mold-free bathroom.

Removing Mold:

Mold is best removed with a disinfecting solution of bleach and water. You can mix one-half cup of bleach in one gallon of water and use this to treat all affected surfaces. For stubborn areas, this solution can be sprayed on and allowed to sit for several minutes before wiping surfaces clean.

The best way to prevent mold and mildew is to remodel your bathroom with Acrylic Wall Systems.  Acrylic Wall Systems are a new innovation in bathroom designs that are easy to clean, relatively low in cost and aesthetically pleasing. Best of all, these surfaces are naturally resistant to mold. Installing Acrylic Wall Systems is a highly effective form of mold prevention, especially when paired with regular efforts to vent the bathroom and use cleaning solutions that include chlorine bleach.  Contact us today to learn about the many benefits of Acrylic Wall Systems, and explore your bathroom remodeling options!

Remodeling Your Master Bathroom

Your master bathroom is your retreat, your place of luxury.  Remodeling a master bathroom has its own unique challenges and also advantages, since it is a more personal area of your home.  Keep these tips in mind as you plan your design:

• Make sure that there’s a comfortable flow from your bedroom to your bathroom.

• Make sure to allocate spaces in your bathroom for different functions.

• The fixtures and materials you use in your bathroom remodel should match your tastes as well as the character of the rest of your house, but, remember that there is room for a little more creativity since it is one of the most personal spaces in your home.

• Your new, remodeled bathroom should have a pleasant view from multiple perspectives. If the bathroom door is open, make sure that the first thing you see from the bedroom is the beautiful bath you’ve installed. On the other hand, make sure that when you’re relaxing in your bath, that you can see the view outside your bedroom window, rather than the hamper overflowing with dirty laundry.             
                                                            
• Consider what you want out of your new master bath, and how much time you will be using it.  Do you intend to spend a lot of time relaxing in it, or is it simply a place to shower and get ready for your day?  This is one of the most important aspects to consider as it will affect a lot of the different parts of the overall remodel.

Remember that you are not alone in the process!  Columbus Bath Design Systems of Ohio is here to help you determine the remodel that will best suit your taste, desire, and budget.  You are always welcome to stop by our showroom, or contact us to explore your bathroom remodeling options.

Shedding Light on Your Bathroom Remodel

by Columbus Bath Design |August 19, 2014 |0 Comments | Bathroom Remodeling, Bathroom Remodeling Tips, Uncategorized | , ,

During the process of bathroom remodeling, an often overlooked detail is lighting. Adequate illumination is something many home owners don’t think about, when planning for a new bath. But, the bathroom is one of the most functional and widely used spaces in the home. It should provide adequate lighting in key functional areas.

One of the places where adequate lighting is needed in the bath, is near the vanity or sink. Family members will use this area to shave, put on makeup, or style their hair. Poor illumination over the sink can make many of these tasks difficult. In many baths, a single, overhead fixture is simply not enough. The style of the new light fixtures should work with the vanity and the overall style of the bath.   Recessed ceiling lights just outside the shower area can be an effective and attractive option. Combining recessed lights with side or top vanity fixtures is a great way to add the layers of illumination needed for any task in the bathroom.

At Columbus Bath Design Systems of Central Ohio, we have many design options available to you.  Contact us today to get started on the bathroom of your dreams!
