5 Amazing Bathroom Remodels – 1 Orange County Bathroom Contractor

By / Bathroom Remodel / Comments Off on 5 Amazing Bathroom Remodels – 1 Orange County Bathroom Contractor

Inspired Remodels creates amazing bathrooms to suit any style or taste. It’s easy for an Orange County bathroom contractor to fall into a rut, same design over and over again. Not so with Inspired Remodels. No two homeowners are the same. So, no two bathroom remodels should be the same either. Here’s a peek at the variety of work that’s happening in Orange County bathrooms.

Ladera Ranch Master Bath

A well-functioning bathroom begins with careful consideration of who will use the space and how the room will be used. In this case, the “master” bath serves the master and the lady of the house as well.  Dual sinks, a double vanity, two mirrors, a shower, and a soaking tub meet the needs of both. With Inspired Remodels, you get more than an Orange County bathroom contractor, you get a bathroom designer as well. And because function forms design, the resulting room looks great and works wonderfully as well.

The built-in bench is perfect for personal grooming or just sitting and taking in the steam. The beautiful gray river rock reflects the natural beauty of the Ladera Ranch community. Not only does it bring interest to the shower floor, but it turns the niche from a functional storage spot to a focal point.

The simplistic but elegant look of the shower extends to the dual sinks and vanity. Here you find plenty of space, lighting, and storage to accommodate two people. Whether getting ready to go to the office, attend the next Zoom call, or enjoy a night on the town, two will never be a crowd in this bathroom.

Lighting Up Laguna Niguel

When you don’t have much space, an Orange County bathroom contractor must pull out all the tricks for making a small space look large.

Inspired Remodels knows that light is key to opening up a space. This Laguna Niguel bathroom remodel combines strong natural light and reflective surfaces to trick the eye into seeing space as larger than life.

By placing the vanity near a window, you maximize the use of natural light. White makes everything look larger. So, white cabinets and a white vanity open the room up. White tiles on the accent wall reflect light back making the appearance of even more space.

Of course, the show stopper is the door. Notice how the shape of the tile is duplicated on the design of the door? When one element of a room flows to the next, it flawlessly brings the eye with it. Everything appears just a bit larger than life.

Mixing, Matching, and Making it Real

Inspired Remodels is the Orange County bathroom contractor that’s not afraid to mix things up when a homeowner wants that special eclectic look.

Who says cabinet hardware and faucets must be matchy matchy? Not this homeowner and Inspired Remodels agrees. The black accents provided by the black cabinet and drawer hardware perfectly complement the tile floor. The sink faucet finish and the door hardware work with the color palette beautifully. This room would be boring with a faucet, door handle, and cabinet hardware that matched. A floor tile this amazing deserves an amazing supporting cast.

 And finally, something completely different. The beauty of stacked stone, the elegance of ebony cabinets and mirrors create a bathroom filled with serenity.

Orange County Flooring Contractor Shares 3 Ways Hard Floors are Better

By / Home Improvement / Comments Off on Orange County Flooring Contractor Shares 3 Ways Hard Floors are Better

Flooring for your home represents a significant financial outlay. Anytime you spend that much money, you want to know you are getting the best product for your home and health. So what floors are the best? Hard flooring in any form is the healthiest choice. Inspired Remodels, a popular Orange County flooring contractor shares why hard floors make the healthiest homes.

A cat and carpet together are not a good idea

Reason 1 – Hard Flooring Reduces Allergens

Hard floors make healthier floors because they reduce the number of allergens in your home. Place carpets and rugs on your floors and install allergen magnets.

Textile flooring collects dust, pollen, molds, dust, dust mites, and pet allergens. Then, each time a person walks on the carpet or rug, their feet send a cloud of allergens up into the air. Even if you run HEPA air cleaners, you aren’t going to collect all the allergens.

And these days, everybody is concerned about health.

Wood, stone, and tile flooring refuse to collect allergens. They just won’t do it. That’s because they are easy to clean. This leads us to reason number 2.

Hard floors and cats are a better idea

Reason 2 – Hard Flooring is Easy to Keep Clean

Hard floors provide no place for dirt or allergens to hide. Unlike textile flooring with fibers, nooks, and crannies, hard flooring offers a smooth surface.

Whether you vacuum or damp mop, you’ll remove the dirt. Where vacuuming carpets sends dust flying, vacuuming hard floors with a horsehair brush dislodges dust without making it airborne.

Carpeting represents multiple layers of textiles. Not only does the carpet collect dirt, but dirt falls between the fibers to the padding underneath. Face it, you are never going to clean that padding. You can pay someone to clean your carpet, but it won’t really be clean. And, the padding stays dirty.

Clean a wood, tile, or stone floor and it is really clean. And it will stay clean longer provided you remove your shoes before coming inside.

Reason 3 – Hard Flooring Improves Planet Health

For the most part, textile flooring comes from synthetic materials. These materials are carbon-based. Oil and minerals are extracted, refined, processed, and spun to create fibers. It consumes vasts amounts of energy and isn’t renewable.

Compare that with bamboo flooring. Bamboo flooring provides the most eco-friendly option in hard flooring. Any Orange County flooring contractor in the know knows that bamboo beats other hardwoods when it comes to hardness. Bamboo harvested from managed farms renews in 5 to 7 years. You can’t say that for an oak tree.

Ceramic tile is also eco-friendly. Yes, it is mined but unlike carpet, ceramic lasts up to 50 years. So you enjoy many years of use when compared to carpeting or other textile floorings that must be continually replaced.

Kitchen Remodel Company Dishes on Islands

In Orange County, no custom kitchen remodel is complete unless it includes an island. Inspired Remodels, Orange County’s inspired kitchen remodel company, dishes on what makes a kitchen island an asset, not a liability. From providing an extra dining space to adding an additional prep area, Orange County kitchen islands earn their keep.

Island-Style Dining

Island dining doesn’t always include ocean breezes, blue water, and tropical landscapes. In Orange County, you can enjoy a view of the Pacific with your bowl of cereal when Inspired Remodels adds an island to your kitchen. This is a kitchen remodel company that understands the versatility of the kitchen island.

Some want a casual dining experience.  This kitchen island provides seating for 3. When not in use, barstools tuck under the island. Legs add a table vibe to this kitchen island. Incorporating seating into the kitchen island converts this small kitchen into an eat-in kitchen. It’s island dining at its most functional.

 

Not all island dining is so informal. Now, this kitchen island can seat up to 12 or serve a buffet for a crowd. The more formal lighting gives the island a more formal feel. When you dream big, make sure you’ve got a kitchen remodel company that understands your vision.

Islands that Work

Kitchen islands offer a great opportunity to create efficient work triangles.  Work triangles create a kitchen where key elements such as the sink, stovetop, and refrigerator are places for easy access. When you reduce the number of steps between work elements, you create a more efficient workspace. Genius!

The kitchen remodel above updated a large kitchen space. Large kitchens provide plenty of room for the cook, but they also present a challenge. How can the cook work without running ragged? Too many steps are like too many cooks, they ruin the dish.

By placing the cooktop on the kitchen island, the kitchen remodel company reduced the number of steps between the sink, fabulous fridge, and cooking area.

Here’s another take on the working island. In this instance, the sink resides in the island with the range/oven combo behind the island and the refrigerator on the side of the island.

Sometimes just one island won’t do.

This Cota da Caza kitchen remodel incorporates islands for dining and islands for work. It’s a fearless commitment to island living.

Seriously, one island incorporates a wine fridge and a sink. The sink placement completes a perfect work triangle. The second island offers seating for 5 and additional storage. In a large space, these two islands provide retain the feeling of spaciousness for entertaining large groups while creating an intimacy perfect for family dining.
