Must-Haves for a Bathroom Remodel:

Double-Sink.

If you ever have two people getting ready at the same time in the morning, a double sink is a necessity for you. Double-sink vanities are efficient and beautiful. They provide the homeowner with more space to get ready while adding elegance to your space. When in doubt, go double.

Bathtub.

Expert designers encourage homeowners to have at least one bathtub in their home. But if your heart is not set on solely having a bathtub, you could get a shower + tub combination. Most homeowners find the combination more appealing and this option tends to work well for families.

Extra Storage.

There is nothing that a little extra storage cannot fix. When remodeling your bathroom, remember the amount of storage that you currently have and how you want to advance it. Believe us, there is no such thing as having “too much” storage. You can always find an item to put there.

Kitchens are one of the most important rooms in a resale. Aside from bathrooms, kitchens will play a big role in a buyer’s decision process. Whether you are renovating for yourself or a future resale, updating your kitchen can be a fantastic idea. To help you, we have created four tips for you to use during your renovation. Let us get started! 

 

4 Tips for a Kitchen Renovation: 

Tip #1: Lit. 

• The lighting you use in your kitchen can be more important than you might think. You want the lighting to be focused on your specific “work areas.” Areas like the sink, stove, and island will be your focus. 
• When you choose the lighting for these areas, you want it to provide a significant amount of light. Since you are working with knives and hot tools, it can be imperative for you to see what you are doing. To help avoid injury and make life a little easier, we recommend “spotlighting” these important areas.

Tip #2: The Backsplash.

Your backsplash can be very diverse. Typically, a backsplash is used to add design and style to your space, but it can also help protect our walls from food splashing. Not only is it beautiful to look at, but backsplash provides a layer of protection for our kitchen surfaces. Be sure to add a gorgeous backsplash to your kitchen during the renovation. 

Tip #3: Island. 

An island can be an incredible space for prep-work. They provide extra kitchen counter space while adding to the overall look of the room. If you are planning on using your island for prepping, be sure to add a sink. The sink will add ease of mind when prepping and cooking your favorite meals. Plus, consider adding storage on the outside walls of the island. A little bit of storage can go a long way! Be sure to talk to your contractor about all of the kitchen island possibilities. 

Tip #4: Convenience. 

During a remodel, you can add those special features that you wish you always had. Items like a pot-filler, wine cooler or lazy-susan can transform your space and personalize it to your taste. Be sure to mention your interests to your contractor and see what you can add to your space.
