Orange County Bathroom Remodeling – Thanksgiving Edition

By / Bathroom Remodel / Comments Off on Orange County Bathroom Remodeling – Thanksgiving Edition

If you’ve survived an Orange County bathroom remodeling this year, you’re thankful the work is complete and you now have a revived and refreshed space.

Even in the best circumstances, any major home remodeling disrupts the rhythm of everyday family life. Bathroom remodeling in the en suite bathroom spills into the bedroom and requires you to move to a secondary bathroom.

Remodeling a secondary bathroom puts it out of commission and requires sharing another bathroom space.

But once the work is done, the dust is cleared, and life settles down, you feel an immense sense of accomplishment.  Take a look at these recent Orange County bathroom remodeling projects.

Grey quartz countertops with white cabinetry and black accessories

Double Duty

Make the most of the space you have with a dual vanity. Include cabinetry, sinks, and mirrors for two along one wall.

Don’t think you need two walls to create two separate spaces. 

In this bathroom, gorgeous greige quartz countertops complement white cabinetry with black hardware. Each mirror provides individual task lighting.

Square sinks match the lines of the cabinet insets.

Here you see the same elements that appear to be completely different. You still have dual sinks, cabinets, and mirrors but it doesn’t even look the same

Instead of knockdown walls, this bathroom remodel adds white picket tiles to create a backsplash. Dual round mirrors share task lighting and square sinks still prevail, but the cabinetry is a different style.

Still, both rooms provide a space anyone would be thankful to have in their house.

Spa Experience  in a Small Space

Experienced bathroom remodeling companies know how to squeeze maximum enjoyment from every square inch of space. Even if you don’t have a square to spare.

This Orange County bathroom remodel oozes luxury and spa vibes from every surface. A frameless glass shower stall, overhead rain shower head, dark herringbone tile with contrasting light grout, and light floor create a serene spa-like feel.

The Japanese-style soaking tube in bright white follows the clean-line aesthetics that start with the cabinetry and carry through to the hardware.

This room exudes elegance and classic style. In other words, it packs a huge punch in a small space. And most importantly, no element overwhelms the space.

Super Sweet En Suite Bathroom Remodeling

Then there is the amazing en suite bathroom remodeling in San Clemente.

This homeowner had enough space to create a bathroom retreat. Sinks on opposite walls give each user all the personal space they need for morning and nightly routines.

A sit-down vanity space with exceptional lighting offers a place for make-up and other personal grooming.

Storage galore! There’s no need for a separate linen and supplies closet to keep this space amply stocked.

Add a glorious soaking tub accented with a foyer-worthy chandelier and you can see this space provides much to be thankful for.

Some showers include two heads but no door!

This Roman shower keeps the spray from the two shower heads contained without the use of additional glass for a door. This shower remodel creates a space that is easier to maintain while providing a classic look. Make sure your shower remodeling project considers maintenance!

Shower Hardware

The selection of shower hardware does more than just deliver water for cleaning. It contributes to the spa experience. Multiple shower heads, additional shower jets, and handheld showerheads offer a car wash-like experience when showering!

Remember your shower hardware selection is just part of your bathroom hardware. Bathroom hardware accessorizes the room just as fashion accessories finish an outfit.

Shower hardware matches the sink hardware style and color

There are two design schools of thought when it comes to bathroom hardware.  One approach is that all hardware must match in finish and style for a unified look.  Other designers like the appeal of mixing and matching hardware finishes and styles to provide contrast.

The shower head doesn’t need to match the sink faucet, but the metals and styles should coordinate.  If you like the mix-and-match approach, hardware can be one place to add a pop of color to a room that is otherwise monochromatic.

 

Steam Showerssteam bath

Yearning for a steam shower? A bathroom remodel offers a great opportunity to incorporate a steam shower into your design. Steam showers are trendy now but they have their roots in ancient Rome. 

Steam bathing is incredibly eco-friendly.  A 20-minute steam shower uses only 2 gallons of water! Just compare that to how much water even the stingiest water-saving shower head uses.

Since a steam shower requires room for the generator, the best time to convert a conventional shower to a steam shower is during a remodel.  Modern steam showers heat up quickly and can also be plumbed to deliver cold water to the same shower stall; combining the best of both shower worlds.
