Stunning Bath Remodel - Design & General Contracting by Laura Keogan

BEFORE: 

The original owner of this home truly embraced 1980's trends - check out that black jetted tub!  The original shower had a small plastic / plexi enclosure that was worn & cracked, with a door that did not close properly.  The original custom vanity was considerably shorter in height than today's vanities, with considerable storage challenges and, frankly TOO MUCH counterspace.

AFTER;

This bathroom has been transformed into a spa-like retreat! 

  • The free-standing tub boasts a Brizo free-standing tub filler.  This new-style tub is not only luxurious but also frees-up floor area. 
  • The shower has been expanded considerably.
    • Custom shower pan & tile work
    • 12 x 24 porcelain wall tile
    • Brizo fixtures
    • Custom, frameless glass enclosure with matte black hardware
  • On the floor:  24 x 24 porcelain tile designed to resemble distressed marble.
  • The custom vanity is a game-changer for this space:
    • Drawer space rather than tiny lower cabinets with shelves
    • A "lazy susan" in the lower corner space (My carpenter told me this is the first time he has installed a "lazy susan" in a bathroom.  It was interesting getting that piece of cabinetry through a bedroom door, and then through the bathroom door!)
    • Vicostone Quartz countertop
    • Brizo fixtures
    • A countertop upper cabinet for added storage, with interior outlets to enclose / hide razor and toothbrush chargers.
