Custom cabinets are pricey. Stock cabinets look like cookie-cutter cabinets but are inexpensive. What’s a person to do when budgeting for a kitchen remodel? Use semi-custom cabinetry.  Inspired Remodels, Orange County’s famous kitchen cabinet contractor, shows how to use semi-custom cabinets from Decora, Kitchen Craft, or Waypoint to get a custom look at almost stock prices.

Decora

Rely on Decora for high-end cabinets manufactured in the USA. For over 30 years, Decora has been outfitting kitchens with quality constructed cabinets in stunning designs.

Decide if you want an overlay. Then just lay out the design that fits your needs. Inspired Remodels measures your space and recommends the combination of base and wall cabinets that meet your cooking and lifestyle needs.  We’ll take into account electricity, plumbing, windows, doors, etc.

KitchenCraft Cabinets

Do your tastes run to modern, European, or contemporary? Then KitchenCraft makes the semi-custom for you. This Canadian-based company combines good looks and quality construction to give you the look you want.

The Integra Collection gives you solid or square door options in a variety of finishes that include contemporary looks like bamboo, Thermafoil,  and white oak as well as more traditional cherry, alder, and maple.

Cherry Square Door with Mocha Glaze

What makes KitchenCraft special is its approach to semi-custom cabinetry. The result is almost fully custom. In addition to picking your door style and wood, they give you numerous options in glazes. So, just a simple change of glaze can completely change the look of the finish.

Just imagine the same cabinet door with this Bordeaux Black Glaze.  It’s the same wood and the same door, just a different glaze. Pick from standard or premium glazes.

Waypoint Cabinets

Multiple plants across the United States allows Waypoint Cabinets to hold the line on transportation costs and passes the savings on to you. That’s important if you are concerned about your carbon footprint.

Waypoint is committed to sustainable manufacturing practices. They work with suppliers to encourage sustainable forestry practices and work to limit VOC emissions.

They make beautiful cabinets too.

600 Series Cherry with Java Finish

In addition to the finishes and glazes offered by the other manufacturers, Waypoint offers nine painted finishes in a palate from white to grey.

Bathroom Remodel Company Shares Trends for 2019

By / Bathroom Remodel / Comments Off on Bathroom Remodel Company Shares Trends for 2019

A bathroom remodel continues to be one of the most popular home remodeling projects. It’s not generally a DIY project. It’s best to hire a bathroom remodel company or general contractor with extensive bathroom remodel experience. Inspired Remodels is not only a leading bathroom remodel company and general contractor, they constantly scan the horizon for new trends in design. Here’s what’s popular in 2019.

Sink Trends

Vessel sinks were once the purview of bars and high-end restaurants. No more. Vessel sinks are showing up in bathrooms all over Orange County.

bathroom contractor creates a stunning bathVessel sinks provide more options in sink design. You can get quite creative with faucets too. Use vessel sinks to add a high-end look to your bathroom remodel.

Undermount sinks started in the kitchen but have migrated to the bathroom. Their simple design makes them easy to keep clean. That’s important if the bathroom is a high-usage room.

These dual undermount sinks are spacious with clean lines. Hair, soap, and other grooming debris can’t be trapped in grooves because there aren’t any. Simply wipe the counters and sinks down to keep them clean.

Similar to the undermount sink is the integrated sink. This option is only possible if you are replacing countertops and sinks at the same time.

The sink and countertop are one piece. This is popular for guest baths, half baths, and small bathrooms.

Shower Trends

An up and coming trend we touched on a few weeks ago is the tub in the shower installation. This bathroom remodel trend creates a large but contained wet area for the shower and a free standing soaking tub. Look for more of this in 2019.

Want a spa experience without taking up the space of a jetted tub? Then add a vertical spa to your bathroom remodel wishlist.

Moen is just one of several manufacturers to create the equipment you need for a vertical spa. Just pick your controls, jets, and shower heads and Inspired Remodels will do the rest.

The vertical spa is a space saver. It provides the same water massage therapy in a much smaller design. No need for a separate, bulky tub.

If you want to squeeze as much luxury as possible out of your bathroom remodel, consider the vertical spa.

Of course providing a place for those grooming products is still necessary. That’s why niches will continue to be popular in 2019.  These storage spots are built-into the shower and will  keep shampoo, conditioner, shave cream and other personal care items at your fingertips. Because of their popularity and practicality, don’t expect this trend to fade any time soon.

Niches continue to provide a medium for creativity with tile and stone as well.

Bathroom Remodel Company That’s Always in Style

Trends in bathrooms come and go. But certain styles always endure. Like these time-tested classics, Inspired Remodels is the bathroom remodel contractor that is always in style.

Use our design-build process to guarantee that you get the bathroom of your dreams with your next bathroom remodel project. Call (949) 716-1938 or Contact Us online to schedule a consultation.

Kitchen Renovation Trends For Orange County Kitchen Remodels

Hemlines go up and down. Facial hair goes in and out of style. Interior design is subject to trends as well. If you plan a kitchen renovation this year, you may want to pay attention to these trends.

Mixed Metals

Metals are getting mixy-matchy for 2019. The days of stainless appliances and brushed nickle faucets are over. Chrome is making a comeback and fits in well with industrial, modern and classic decor.

How many metals do you see in this photo?

The metal pulls and knobs on your cabinets don’t need to match your faucet either. Or your appliances. Pulls and knobs are one of the hottest ways to get a grip on this kitchen renovation trend for 2019. Not ready to tackle the entire room? You can get a fresh look by just updating the cabinet hardware. If you can handle a screwdriver, you can handle this DIY task.

You don’t need black appliances for your cabinets to rock this black hardware. Mix and match your metals for maximum contrast.

Quartz Countertops

Nothing says 1990 through the early 2000’s as granite. Granite in the kitchen, granite in the bathroom, granite almost everywhere but the garage floor. It time to say goodbye to granite and hello to quartz.

Bye bye Granite

Quartz is a much harder surface. That makes it much more well suited for the kitchen. Unlike porous granite that can harbor bacteria, quartz doesn’t need sealing.

Clean lines, cool colors, and plays well with a variety of finishes. It’s also perfectly suited for undermount sinks. Not every counter material can make that boast.

Where granite was once a sign of luxury, by the end of the year it may be considered quaint and old-fashioned.

Evoking Emotion

Just because kitchens are workrooms, doesn’t mean they need to be devoid of warmth, feeling, and emotion. Stark white and tone-on-tone are on the way out. Colors, lighting, and finishes that evoke emotion and a sense of warmth and home are in for 2019.

Instead of white lower cabinets, a warm tone wood finish evokes a feeling of comfort. Graphic tile on the accent wall gives the room a sense a personality while seamlessly flowing into the neutral tone subway tile backsplash. Of course quartz countertops fit right in with this design. By the way, notice the use of mixed metals. This kitchen embodies all the hottest kitchen renovation trends for 2019 and will look stylish for years to come.
