Bath and Kitchen

Laminate kitchen countertops offer durability and style at a price lower than any other material. It’s a worthy contender if you have a limited budget. A favorite during the groovy 1960s and ‘70s, laminate kitchen countertops are enjoying a second wind as an affordable, durable, moisture-proof, and surprisingly attractive replacement for your home’s worn kitchen countertops.

The typical bathroom lacks storage space. In fact, creating better storage is one of the most common reasons people remodel their bathrooms. As you design your new bathroom, keep in mind three basic types of storage: cabinetry, open shelving, and linen closets.
Wall cabinets, because they are shallow, are versatile storage units for small spaces like bathrooms. They can be installed on any available wall space-the most popular spot is over the toilet. Some are freestanding units with legs that straddle the toilet tank. Wall cabinets can even be mounted low and topped with a counter. Or, they can be installed in banks. Vanity cabinets hide plumbing, provide storage, and support the countertop and sink. A vanity is often a bathroom’s visual focal point and can set the decorative tone for the whole room. Cabinetry can be a dominating design element, as in the large, luxurious bathroom above. For floor-to-ceiling banks of cabinets you may use kitchen cabinetry, but choose a base cabinet that’s specifically designed for bathrooms if you are including a sink or vanity.

Also, the bathroom is a very important room in every home—and it’s essential that the plumbing work correctly.

Showers can stand alone or be combined with tubs, and they come in a number of styles and materials. A tub/shower combination is more common than a standalone shower stall. It uses space efficiently, is cheap to install, and can easily be added to an alcove tub. One-piece molded fiberglass and acrylic tub-and-shower units are available, but they are often too large to fit through doors and are better suited for new construction. Shower stalls are ideal for small bathrooms or as a supplement in master or luxury bathrooms. They can be purchased prefabricated or they can be custom-built. Custom shower stalls can be designed to fit into odd spaces. The walls can be finished with ceramic tile, glass block, or a solid-surface material. Specialized options, such as seats, steam bath units, and soap dishes, can be incorporated into the design.
