There are a few different reasons why homeowners may consider remodeling their bathrooms, from updating the style, to upgrading certain features.

Cabinets

For those looking for some of the largest possible upgrades to storage space in the bathroom, custom cabinets are an excellent option.  We custom build each of our cabinets to your specifications, color and style.  Cabinets can provide storage for everything from towels to toiletries to bulky items like hair dryers or irons.

The right custom cabinets will add fantastic aesthetics to the room, elevating it from a strictly functional space to one that’s truly beautiful. Because of this dual purpose, cabinets are one of the top considerations for homeowners remodeling their bathrooms.

When designing your cabinets, we measure the available space carefully, then build your cabinets to perfectly fit.  Thus creating function and beauty in your bathroom area.

Hook Storage

For bathrooms where several items are regularly hung rather than stored in cabinets or drawers, hooks can be an excellent storage solution. Hooks can be mounted on the wall or back of a door and used to store items like robes and towels.

There are many different hook styles and materials to choose from, so it’s important to select the right type for your needs. For example, if you have a lot of items that tend to get wet (towels, robes), then you’ll want to select a hook made from a waterproof material.

Tip: When selecting hooks, be sure to consider the weight of the items that will be hung from them. This will help you choose a hook that is capable of supporting the weight without bending or breaking. For instance, if you know you’ll be hanging a heavy towel rack from a hook, then you’ll need to select a thicker and more durable style.  During our custom remodels, we also add bracing inside the wall to insure solid anchor points for your new hooks and fixtures.
