If you are remodeling your home with a view to selling the property, you will find a bathroom remodel one of the most sensible, high ROI investments. Buyers are usually willing to pay more for a Grand Rapids, Michigan area home with luxurious, fully out fitted bathrooms. A bathroom remodel can be as simple as changing the tiles, sink or tub or as extensive as adding a whole new bathroom. It's easy to get carried away while in the midst of a bathroom renovation, purely because of the sheer variety of fittings, fixtures and accessories out there. For instance, if you are only looking at a small bath tub remodeling project, you could easily find your budget sky rocketing as you fill your tiny space with the latest water massage system-incorporated tub. Always have a bath remodel plan before you hire a contractor.
The design of your shower can be one of the most troublesome decisions in a bathroom model. If you have the luxury of a large bath, you may have the freedom and choice to install the latest shower stalls. If you have a small bathroom however, fitting a stall can be a problem. If a shower stall is not an option, choose a curved quadrant shower, preferably with a detachable shower head. For a larger bathroom, you can easily install a separate tub for long soaks, and a shower stall for a quick morning rinse. A limitless range of stall designs and sizes make choosing a bath shower a complicated affair. Choose from two person showers, spa like showers that function like saunas, and door less showers. Your shower stall can quickly transform into your own personal relaxation enclosure.
Almost all American homes have at least one bathroom that includes a tub. Your bath tub remodel will depend on the size of your bath. Although the basic 3-wall alcove tub is still the most popular and affordable choice, there are dozens of other different styles to choose from. A triangular tub that is installed in a corner with just one finished size visible is ideal for a smaller bathroom. Claw footed tubs or free standing tubs that are plunked in the middle of a bath, or anywhere else you desire. These tubs are made of light weight materials, but are finished to look like an antique tub. A whirlpool is installed as a drop in model, mounted in the platform. It can also be sunk to below flow level. The soothing hydro massage that a whirlpool tub offers elevates it from a mere tub to a spa facility.
We own an old home (1942) near downtown / heights area, around 1110 sq. ft. We have plenty of room on our lot to add a master suite in the place of our second driveway, we would also like to add on the utility to have it inside the home instead of out in the garage. I have plans drawn up but need blueprints done, I am an interior designer so I have a pretty good idea of what I want but am definitely open to idea's / changes. We are excited about making this addition to our home sometime in the next year, we'll have to before we have a second child. I feel that I need to get the ball rolling now so we know what we're talking about time wise and money wise. Please call / contact me with any questions. thank you.
