Thank you, Emilee & Lora! This is my first time here. My builder's electrician told me I didn't have enough room to put wall sconces on either side of my 36" vanity and that the one standard wall light centered above the vanity was their suggestion. With the examples put forth in this video, I am going to ask if he can add electrical junction boxes in the ceiling for owner-provided pendant lights on either side of the vanity mirror instead. Oh, and yes, I just liked and subscribed.

I was able to purchase a part that retrofitted with my existing shower valve, so I could use a faucet from a different company. It worked really well. I wasn’t able to do that with my Roman tub faucet, so I just used a metallic spray paint to change the color of the spout and handles. It turned out really well, but might not be the most durable solution. Thanks for your informative video. I am in the process of planning the remodels of 3 bathroom and one powder room.

The thing with tile is the horror of maintaining the grout. The tile can only look beautiful until the grout changes the look. The design will not work with the miles of grout becoming the “focus point” in the long run. I wish for more practical alternatives.

Thank you for your comment. Grout has come a long way - if mixed and installed correctly, epoxy grout won’t crack, stain, or shrink, making it an ideal solution for wet environments. If you want to avoid all grout lines entirely, thin format porcelain slabs is a great option - solid surface walls with no grout lines. Porcelain slabs are more expensive, they have to be fabricated and installed like countertops, but no maintenance and super easy to clean. A more affordable option to avoid grout lines is a prefabricated shower.

About to start a basement bath reno next month and this is right on time. Love the colors, choice of materials and rethinking our choices now. However, this is our first reno. Have a contractor that's very busy (which is good, I think) but have been put off several months because he's taken on other jobs. My husband and I are starting to feel overwhelmed and not as confident of our choices or contractor. We need to replace the prefab neo angle shower that was leaking but now want to update the bathroom. Any suggestions?

@emileeandlora

10 ай бұрын

Oh good, happy to hear the timing was good for your upcoming reno!:) True, a contractor that is busy can be a good sign - like an unspoken referral. But, if he is taking on jobs after committing to you and before yours, that might be a sign to look for another contractor. You might be able to find a contractor in your area through NAHB. You can do this while waiting on him, so if you can't find someone, he is still committed. As far as being unsure about your selections, the easiest thing to do is find a bathroom you like the style and color of and match it. But remember, it should be cohesive to your homes style unless you are planning to change that someday as well. Sending our best your way and hope that everything works out for you!

That's great to hear, thanks! Good question! If we are understanding correctly, it sounds like you have a prefabricated one piece tub - walls and tub are fiberglass or similar. We will do our best to provide an example that might work for you. If you tile the rooms exposed walls, this fills in the drywall space above the tub and purposely continues onto adjoining walls for a clean tile design throughout. If you have the room for a pony tub wall, it will run into your newly tiled walls, so tile pattern layout will be important to marry tile surfaces properly. Hope you find this helpful!:)

Whether a standard shower, shower system (multiple shower heads), or steam shower, having the on/off control (temp valve), is most convenient right inside the door whether the shower sprays are on same wall or another wall. A diverter (control sprays), is best located on the shower wall or close by. A smart shower system ran by touch pad can be placed between both door and shower wall for ease of control.

Even though the technology and cleanability has gotten so much better, jetted tubs are not as popular as they once were, but not outdated if it's a new tub.

In the last 15 yrs, and hundreds of tubs later, we have had only 2 clients request a jetted tub and they are thrilled with their decision.

@emileeandlora

6 ай бұрын

Thank you for this great comment! The two most common ways to hang a towel in a bathroom is on towel bars or hooks and both place the towel up against the wall. If a bathroom is properly painted with "bathroom paint" that has anti-microbial additives that help resist - not completely prevent - mildew or mold, then you are fine with either hanging method. For years our industry used high gloss paints for bathrooms, because anti-microbial paints were not available. Today, you commonly see this is public bathrooms. We will definitely do an in depth video on paint in the future, thanks for the idea.

Tiled frontage of baths (tubs) has been a thing in Australia forever. Every house I have lived in has a built in bath with the same wall tiles down the side of the bath. There is less baths/tubs being built in now as most are opting for a free standing bath/tub. Shiny chrome still looks clean and crisp in a white bathroom and is still a classic. So no need to get tired of it to put in brass or black. People are overdoing it with making all their fixtures black and it’s just too much.

Does the kitchen and bathroom have to match? Such as color faucet?

@emileeandlora

Great question! No, you do not need the bathroom and kitchen faucets to be the same finish or exact faucet brand/suite. What is important is that stylistically all materials/finishes/colors are cohesive throughout the home; e.g. having a ultra modern kitchen but a traditional farmhouse bathroom in the same home would not be cohesive. However, you can take elements from both styles and properly marry them together - a rustic wood floor with modern cabinets. Hope this is helpful!

Thank you for asking this question. In hindsight, we would have referenced this differently and provided an explanation for the other names used today when referring to a master bedroom or master bathroom. The term master bedroom or master bathroom seems to be phasing out or changing among some companies and some professionals. For a while now, we have been noticing realtors, architects and designers using the names primary, principal or main when referring to and what is commonly known as the master bedroom or master bathroom. We don't know when or how this change started to evolve. According to South Florida Agent Magazine, Houston Association of Realtors and Chicago-based real estate firm @Properties announced they will stop using the term master and adopt a more neutral term like main or primary. Studies have shown that master is still the most commonly used label, however primary, principal and main are being used as well. Sharing this with our viewers was so when they hear or read master being referenced as primary, principal or main they will know they all are referencing the same space.

Need to change my bathroom. People are saying tubs are out of date. Is this true? I always liked a tub

We don't believe tubs are out of date; many of our clients request a tub and most want freestanding. We do seldom do a jetted tub. Some clients do opt to omit a tub, if they have a tub in another bathroom, to have a large two person shower. For resale value it is good to have a tub in a house. Hope this was helpful!:)

great trends except for one why all the expense for heated floors??? all that work for nothing just wear houseshoes simple!!

We are big fans of house shoes - quite popular in the PNW :) However, a heated floor in climates that are cold will heat up the room from floor up. This is nice when you wake up on a cold day, need a shower and enter a room that is warmed to the temperature you like. On another note, heated floors throughout a home can reduce the forced heat cost. This again would be more appropriate for colder climates. Monday in Seattle It didn't get above 58 degrees :(

The “Master bathroom” term is not “going out.” The owner(s) of the home is the “Master” regardless of the pronoun of their choice. They worked hard to pay the bills and deserve the fruits of their labor. Remember, the owner of the home could be one or more individuals. If you feel differently, you’re welcome to cancel your MasterCard account and sign up for a visa.

Yes so sick of these compliant fools. My suite is the Master suite because I ….yes me (and I’m white) am the master of my domain. I worked my ass off to get it and sorry , no one is taking that from me.

Many realtors are using primary now on sites. I think they are just informing the audience that primary and master are interchangeable. Relax

Wisconsin’s largest luxury builder will not build shower niches due to them collecting water and more importantly soap scum. We listened to him!

A niche should always be designed with the sill sloping slightly toward the bath or shower. This reduces buildup of water or soap residue. A solid sill without grout lines is helpful as well.

I think it’s also referring to women owning homes or are partners in owning homes. But call it what you want, everything doesn’t need to be political. Words are changed all the time. Parlor, water closet, even den is rarely used now.

Useful video but show more pictures of what you are describing and less of you talking

I don’t know the proper lingo but I believe what annegathumbi1690 is suggesting is to give the viewer more time to look at the photos before putting the camera back on the two of them speaking. They can still talk, it would just be more interesting and useful to look at the things they are referring to AS they are discussing it.

As a women, I own my house and I still call my bedroom and bathroom the Master. It sounds too woke to call it Primary. I get Den changed to Family Room and couch to sofa...but still love a davenport, the best furniture maker.

Lol! Love this comment!! We talk about this often, depending on the geographic location we hear it pronounced both ways. And, according to Merriam-Webster and Google there are three proper pronunciations for niche - nich (Most common in US), neesh (French inspired-British English), or nish (no explanation provided).

Thank you so much!! We love making these types of videos in hopes to give viewers lots fo ideas for their homes. No, we haven't made a barn door video. However, that does give us some ideas as there are so many types of doors; barn doors have come a long way too. Just installed a frameless glass barn door shower enclosure and the client loves it! They are a great option for small, tight bathrooms.
