There are design build bathroom remodeling companies, like Wineteer, that can bring your spa vision to life. According to houzz.com, Nearly 9 in 10 homeowners (86%) change the style of their bathroom during a remodel, and the most popular style for the second year in a row is transitional (23%). Contemporary style has slightly edged out modern this year (16% versus 15%, respectively), followed by traditional (11%) and farmhouse (5%).
Homeowners should take advantage of the design and build expertise that home remodeling experts hold. There are many benefits of a home bathroom remodel, so let’s explore options for an oasis spa look and feel!
Some of the main benefits of having spa-like bathrooms are:
A bathroom spa will immediately allow you to relax. The intent of a bathroom remodel is to fit your stage of life. If you have possible aging in place modifications (bar handles, lowering cabinet, larger bathroom door opening, etc), a bathroom remodel can relieve your stress. A bathroom remodel can help redeem all the negative effects like stress, tension, depression, anxiety, etc.
Bathroom remodeling will definitely increase the property or resale value. Whenever potential clients or renters see the cozy spa-like bathroom, they won’t mind spending more cash to grab the opportunity for the immediate relaxation look and fee.

Here are a few simple, yet effective ideas that can turn your bathroom into a spa:
Placing plants in your bathroom is the simplest way to transform the space into a spa. You can place the plants on the floor, on countertops or hanging from the ceiling. Some also like to keep fresh eucalyptus as it offers a soothing smell to relax just like you can do in a spa. You may question what type of plant to add into your bathroom… check out this article for help selecting the right option!
The bathroom featured below is one that Wineteer completed for an Overland Park resident. The mix of natural light and greenery allows a serene and oasis feel. The simplicity and clean look bring a tranquility when entering the bathroom.
Spa feels more authentic when it includes natural elements like natural stone, marble, and different types of wooden compartments. The vintage look will take you to a place far from the urban pressures.
Low-lit lights or sconce lights are usually used in bathroom spas and you can install them in your bathroom to bring in the vibe. Usually, too many lights lead to unrelaxed nerves, that’s why dim lights are used to avoid the light pollution effects.
Steam showers are great to relieve stress and feel more refreshing. Specifically, if the shower head is oversized, it offers strong water pressure close to your body that helps in detoxing therapeutically just like a spa.
Since most of us use tiles for our bathroom floors, it feels so chilly, specifically in cold winters. At that moment stepping onto the floor will feel like stepping on sharp pins. Even bathmats won’t help much in those harsh colds.
You can install radiant floor heating for your bathroom, it will be both comfortable and luxurious. The bathroom will feel more like a spa this way, and nothing beats hot spa days in winter. Wineteer has an article outlining the benefits of heated flooring when completing a bathroom remodel: https://wineteerconstruction.com/why-consider-heated-floors-in-your-bathroom-remodel/
One of the most important parts of turning your bathroom into a spa is having a comfortable soaking tub. Here are some free-standing tubs to consider: https://wineteerconstruction.com/5-best-freestanding-bathtub-ideas-for-a-stylish-upgrade/
Make sure the tub is big enough to relax comfortably. Also, place the tub at a prominent point in your bathroom as it will give a spa-like vibe whenever you enter the space.
If you have a sophisticated mural on one side of the tub, it will feel like a luxurious museum with a relaxing atmosphere to soak in. You can put simple minimalistic art to an elegant backdrop that goes well with the overall theme of the bathroom.
Invest in good towels! Plush towels have a luxurious comfy feeling. You may even consider a towel warmer for an extra spa look and feel!
One of the ways to make the bathroom more spa-like is to paint the cabinets to a moody sophisticated color. Do you enjoy crisp white, mindful grays, light greens, or tans? There are ways to incorporate colors into cabinetry in a tasteful way.
Adding open shelving in your bathroom remodel can be a good addition to turning the bathroom into a spa. The open shelving will encourage you to keep the clean and crisp feel.
All the cords of your electric bathroom tools will make the space chaotic and unsafe. You can install the outlets inside the vanity drawer and cabinet to keep the tools and their cords inside. This way the cabinet will be decluttered and the washroom will feel more like a shooting spa.
The spa makes you more connected with nature, and that’s why it’s best to incorporate earthy colors when remodeling the bathroom.
Adding elegant-looking curtains on your bathroom window can limit the sunlight, ensure privacy and also add a polished touch to the space.

Usually, different states or cities require different types of permits and licenses for home renovation projects. In some places, you can do many big remodeling projects even without any permission from the local authority, but in others, you’ll need specific permits, even for a few changes in the kitchen, bathroom, or any other part of your house. You should even consider your neighborhood Homeowners Association, as there are specific requirements for remodeling or additions as well.

If you’re in the Johnson County, Kansas area, here is information on the permit process: https://www.jocogov.org/department/building-codes/building-permits/residential-remodel-permit
If you’re not working with a home remodeling contractor, you will be responsible for pulling the permits yourself. There are many advantages for working with a design build firm, such as Kansas City’s Wineteer Construction, because they are familiar with each municipality’s requirements and process. Some people avoid getting the permits just to avoid the time and cost spent on getting them. However, not getting the permits will be more disastrous. Let’s learn more about it from this article.
Continue to explore the Essential Permits for Your Bathroom & Kitchen Remodel, if you remodel a kitchen or bathroom that needs necessary permits or licenses, the result can be devastating both practically and legally.
Also, licenses and permits are needed to make sure the remodeling works and results are safe for everyone during the remodeling and after the completion of the work. If you want to resell the property and the remodeling doesn’t have the required permits, it will lead to complications, and potential buyers will refuse to be involved with the problematic property.
Unpermitted works also won’t cover any insurance, so you’ll need to spend more on the repairs in the future. Moreover, future renovations, demolitions, and obtaining necessary future requirements will be more challenging as you’ll have illegal records. That’s why it’s really important to obtain licenses and permits for even small remodeling projects when necessary.
In this section, we’ve categorized the types of licenses and permits you’ll need to renovate your bathrooms or kitchens with different issues.
Bathrooms and kitchens usually have many in-built and separate appliances, including HVAC systems. If your remodeling project needs to change the systems, like how much power they’ll use, or add more mechanical parts, you’ll need mechanical permits and licenses.
Usually, most renovations need changes to electrical wiring, fixtures, or outlets for any lighting or appliances. And any change to electrical items requires electrical licenses and permits.
Often, bathroom and kitchen renovations require altering the plumbing items like sinks, toilets, showers, new lines or faucets, etc. For these reasons, you’d need to get plumbing permits and licenses for most of your renovations. https://www.kcmo.gov/city-hall/departments/city-planning-development/electrical-plumbing-and-mechanical-permits
You’ll need building or structural permits and licenses when the bathroom or kitchen renovation requires visual and structural changes in the building. For example, adding or removing windows, doors, walls, roofs, etc.
If the bathroom or kitchen renovation work needs to do demolition of any part of the building, you’ll need special permits for the demolition works, for possible noise, to park demolition trucks in the neighborhood, and many more depending on the place you’re living.
You’ll need landscaping permits and licenses if you want to do any renovation work that can change the landscape on your property. For example, if you have a separate kitchen or washroom in your backyard and want to cut down any trees for it or add fences or decks for them, you’ll need permission for these changes. Check out this article, 10 Landscaping Trends to Watch in 2024, for ways to maximize your home’s curb appeal.
Sometimes the changes in your bathroom and kitchen can relate to environmental concerns, that’s why you’ll need permits to use different materials or appliances or change anything. Many materials, like asbestos, paints, boards, etc., can contain harsh chemicals that can lead to potential hazards. That’s why it’s really important to get environmental permits.
In some cases, you’ll need permits to improve the accessibility feature in your house, specifically in bathrooms, to make things easier for toddlers, the elderly, and disabled people. For accessibility features, there are specific codes, licenses, and permits, so ensure they get one, especially if the kitchen and bathrooms are open to the public.
Continuing on the Essential Permits for Your Bathroom & Kitchen Remodel insight, this process can seem a bit complex and time-consuming if you’re new to this. However, if you follow these general steps, things will be easier:
If you contact a reputed and experienced local contractor, they’ll inform you about all the licenses and permits required for your specific projects. It’ll be better if you hire a bathroom or kitchen specialist, as they usually have specific licenses and permits ready for many projects. However, to avoid more complexity, ensure the contractor you’re hiring has real licenses, not fakes. If you’re in the Kansas City area, reach out to Wineteer for a kitchen, bathroom, whole home, or aging in place remodel.
Wineteer’s team also installed a small cabinet to house laundry detergent and cleaning
In the master bathroom remodel portion of the project, Wineteer’s design team had a clear vision from the client. The team removed a built-in tub and replaced it with a free-standing oval-shaped tub. 
There are many reasons why homeowners are opting for barrier-free showers, one of which is the ease of aging in place modifications. The risk of falling is greatly reduced when the ledge of the shower is removed. The ability to roll in a wheelchair, or walker, is ideal for a barrier-free shower, allowing the homeowners to live in the home unassisted for a much longer time. For the wainscot around the tub and shower area we used a large format 12 x 36 inch tile. This embossed tile levels up the space for a timeless look.
RELATED: The 15 Best Tile for 2023
In the new barrier-free shower, Wineteer placed a border of smaller, unique tiles through the space vertically to house the rain shower head and inset shower caddies. This pop of color adds dimension and texture to the space and coordinates with the penny tile used on the shower floor. Fixtures in the shower are all chrome, matching the chrome shower handle and the chrome tub fixtures.
The bathroom cabinets are painted white, both brightening the space, and elevating the look. The homeowners decided on a unique design choice – to add a center tower cabinet between the two vanities. This creates additional storage for the vanity and sink area, and the ability to put toiletries behind a door and not on the counters. All cabinet doors are inset to provide the clean and seamless look you see here. The countertops are quartz and hardware and drawer pulls are chrome. The tile on the floor of the bathroom is a ceramic tile that mimics a Calcutta marble.
This was an amazing project for the Wineteer team to work on with our long-time clients. But it didn’t stop here! In addition to this bathroom remodel, we had the chance to completely renovate their kitchen and move their laundry to their en suite. This whole home remodel provided a relief to the chore of laundry, and the ability to fully enjoy both the kitchen and bathroom!

RELATED: Are home improvements tax-deductible?
Home improvements happen to be the specialty of Wineteer Construction. These capital investments can transform a room into an entirely new space, and can fall within a budget, timeline, and color/design palette.
Yet, even though a renovation project is a large investment, you cannot deduct the cost from your yearly federal income taxes. Still, these projects will most likely increase the resale value of your home. So, it is critically important to keep records of these expenses to reduce the taxes you owe when selling your house. A lower tax obligation means more of a profit at the time you sell your home.
Home improvement expenses that can be deducted the same year include installing alternative energy equipment, like solar paneling or wind turbines, or purchasing Energy Star appliances. “Certain energy-saving home improvements can yield tax credits at the time you make them,” according to “Home Improvement and Your Taxes” from TurboTax.
Home improvements can qualify for tax deductions as medical expenses. If a home modification is more about being medically necessary than about increasing the value of your home, deductions can be claimed for materials and installation. To learn more about medically necessary home improvements, read a recent blog from LifeWise Renovations, a Wineteer Company.

Wineteer’s team grows together, and has the same crew working in the home throughout the entire remodel. This is a unique aspect for a home remodeling company, as many subcontract all of their work. This homeowner in Mission Farms, Kansas wanted to remodel their master bathroom. The master bathroom entailed the removal of a large whirlpool tub. While this was not an aging in place project specifically, the amount of space afforded by the removal of the tub for a barrier free-shower, or zero entry, makes it look as though it was. Our design team and craftsmen utilized the natural light and capitalized on the orientation of the seat, window and walls in conjunction to one another.
This particular client prefers a more contemporary, California-influenced style in their home and surroundings, and this did the trick. The large format floor tile is a nice contrast to the shower tile. Heated floors provide a nice respite to the cold winters of the Midwest.

Americans spent $420 billion in 2020 on remodeling their homes.1 Among NARI members, 90% found a greater demand in contracting in remodeling work during the COVID-19 pandemic. Sixty percent of NARI members cited the scale of the projects increased either in a larger project or remodeling more than one room due to the pandemic.
The goal of any home remodel is to make the right choice for the long term, which is why many homeowners are searching for low maintenance options and energy-efficient upgrades. For the past few years, the ROI for remodeling a bedroom into a home office has plunged to 48.7 percent nationally. Mobile devices allow any room to temporarily shift to a workspace. Comparatively, the ROI for converting an attic space into a bedroom has skyrocketed to 77.2 percent nationally. The increased living space is ideal for either young children or for elderly family members who need at-home care.
Overall, exterior improvements consistently have the best ROI, most likely due to the curb appeal of these upgrades. Specifically, deck additions are making a comeback, with around 65 percent ROI in the Kansas City area. As the cost of building materials increases, it’s imperative to have the right deck remodeling contractor by your side. Contractors like Wineteer partner with families in Overland Park, Olathe, Lenexa, Leawood, and the entire Kansas City area to maximize their space, budget, and timeline. Wineteer takes the time to listen to the homeowners and determine the best solution to their design wants and needs.
Still, many homeowners are not focused on placing their house back on the market. Instead, they are crafting renovations to showcase some personality and improve quality of life in a home they love. A major kitchen remodel, which includes replacing fixtures, wall coverings, flooring, cabinets and countertops, has a 55.6 percent ROI in Kansas City. Still, these upscale renovations remain extremely popular. “Over the last 10 years, homeowners have spent more on kitchen remodeling than any other home improvement category,” according to House Logic.
Wineteer Construction has mastered designing creative, yet practical, specialty projects, like large decks, room additions and upscale kitchens.

When renovating your home, it’s important to make sure that it’s done properly. The renovation process itself is complex and costly, and if it’s not done properly, you are constantly in the “fixing” mode, which is expensive and exhausting. To ensure your home remodeling project is completed properly, you should be aware of common mistakes regarding the home renovation process to avoid any easily-avoided mistakes, and hopefully save from costly errors along the way. It’s important to know what the usual remodeling concerns are in order to make a proper plan, and to take necessary preventive measures. Let’s get to know the Home Remodeling Challenges: Tackling the 14 Big Concerns.
Building codes are a set of rules that you must follow when constructing or remodeling your house. These codes are there to ensure the safety and comfortability of everyone, including your neighborhood and environment. And if you break the codes, you will be punished, fined, or they can even demolish your house!
You can’t just randomly check some codes and plan accordingly, as the codes vary from palace to place and can change every year. That’s why it’s crucial to contact a local professional who has good knowledge about the current building codes. Wineteer Construction partners with Kansas City residents throughout each step of the home remodeling project. This begins with the right design and build concept, then of course logistically abiding by all codes and ordinances. View the Kansas City codes here: https://www.kcmo.gov/city-hall/departments/city-planning-development/codes-and-ordinances.
Without proper budgeting, the final cost can be a lot higher than what you expected it to be. Specifically, when things go wrong or there are mistakes in the process, the cost can vary a lot. When you’re dealing with multiple parts in a home remodel, any mistake can be costly and timely. Even if you hire professionals for cost estimation, they can’t always identify all the potential problems beforehand. That’s why it’s necessary to plan a realistic budget adding at least 10% extra to the expected initial cost.

Sometimes people start remodeling without doing any research at all; they start the whole process with just a single random idea or some furniture they like that makes them want to renovate. But it’s important to do thorough research, as your expectations may not be feasible for you. When residents find the right partnership with a home design builder, the ambiguity fades because the contractor handles each step. As with Wineteer Construction, their team handles every single step of the way after the homeowner approves the design, products, timeline, and budget.
Many of your construction or remodeling problems can arise because of contractors or managers. For example, if you don’t hire a contractor at all but manage everything by yourself to save costs, then it can be a big mess. They are experts in their work and know what should be done to fix everything.
However, you shouldn’t hire random, cheap contractors; make sure they have the necessary licenses and experience and provide insurance. Also, don’t be careless after hiring and leave everything to them; supervise them regularly.
If you think you already hired a contractor, so you don’t need to hire anyone else, then you’re so wrong. A contractor can’t design or plan your remodeling project; a designer can. And if you don’t hire a good designer, your remodeled house or apartment won’t look very appealing. So, what’s the point of remodeling if they aren’t attractive enough?
Even if you hire a contractor and designer, the remodeling process isn’t secured yet. You need to make an agreement that describes the scope of work, materials used, procurement methods, work and payment schedule, and other important issues with the entities related to the work.
And before signing the agreement and contract, you must make a thorough plan for the renovation process, considering all the small details. Also, you may require permits from the local or government sectors.
Many people try doing renovations all by themselves just because they get confident enough after seeing home improvement DIY shows. But in reality, everything needs experienced hands to get done perfectly. In most cases, trying out remodeling by yourself can make things worse, and you may need to hire professionals and spend more than the service amount if you do try it out first. There are so many factors that come into play when it comes to your home remodeling project.
You need to buy any kind of furniture or home decor just before installation. When you do remodeling, often the plan changes more or less, as do the measurements of different areas. That’s why when you buy appliances, furniture, or any other materials before the final measurements, you may need to buy them again.
Cheap materials and furnishings are tempting to consider purchasing, because you can buy a lot of them for an inexpensive amount, but they aren’t durable enough to last long. You may need to replace them soon as they break or their color fades.
The remodeling process is huge; you need to change most things, and that’s why you usually focus on the bigger picture. But you need to consider every detail, as everything can cause potential damage.
Curb appeal, or the visual attractiveness of your house as seen by others while standing in front of the property, is important when you’re remodeling. You may think the outside doesn’t matter much if you can remodel the interior so well. But it’s a big mistake to ignore the curb appeal, as even if the interior looks good, the curb appeal can affect potential buyers and decrease their budget.
Ignoring safety risks is a huge concern regarding remodeling your house. It will not only slow down the remodeling process, but it can also physically harm you or any other people and cause damage to the house or any furniture. Make sure to always wear protective gear while working, keep a first-aid kit by hand, and inspect frequently.
If the remodeling process isn’t just a room or a small portion of the house, then it can be very disruptive for the occupants, as bigger renovation projects take a long time to finish. If you think about a kitchen remodel, your daily meal schedule is disrupted. So before you start the renewal process, make sure to arrange sleeping quarters, resting places, food preparation places and toilets for the people and pets in your house. It’s important to have open communication with your home remodeling company to have an understanding of the timeline.
After your home renovation project begins, any change can cost more time and money, and sometimes the changes aren’t even possible. That’s why you should consider every aspect before planning and stick to the plan.
The remodeling process can go smoothly if you hire a professional renovation team. Even if it seems costlier, the perfectly finished new look is worth it all. Moreover, it increases the property value, so you can easily get a profit from it, or any extra expenditure from mistakes can be saved.
On holidays, family members gather and celebrate time shared together. Usually it is tight quarters, which is part of the holiday fun! However, it’s also a reason why many homeowners consider remodeling their kitchen before the holidays for positive changes like more seating, energy efficiency, convenience, and functionality.
In this article, we’ll discuss 11 Kitchen Remodeling Ideas: Elevate Your Home for the Holidays that can help you remodel your kitchen perfectly to enjoy the holidays over the next years. Let’s dig in.
When the holidays are approaching, here’s 11 Kitchen Remodeling Ideas: Elevate Your Home for the Holidays that you may want to consider as a change of atmosphere. There are several ways to complete a remodel, from whole home remodeling to paint updates to full kitchen renovations. Here are a few ideas:
The first and foremost thing you should do when remodeling your kitchen is to declutter and sort out everything big and small in that area. This is a free revamp that can truly make a big impact! This will help you assess what kind of remodeling you should do and plan the process faster. Also, your whole kitchen will look fresh when you finish removing all the unnecessary things. A good rule of thumb to go by is if you haven’t used the appliance, dishes, bowl, etc in more than two years, it may be time to get rid of it.
Cabinets occupy most of the space in a kitchen. That’s why if you renovate the cabinets, it will drastically change the look of your kitchen. Even a simple cabinet makeover is enough to surprise the guests on holidays. However, if you want to replace all the cabinets, it can be quite expensive. Still, you can try different methods of cabinet renovation, such as painting, applying coatings, adding vinyl or wallpaper, etc. Sometimes, people remove all the cabinets and try open shelving for a fresher and decluttered look. Also, for more storage, you can try adding more drawers and cabinets if there is free space. This may be the time to add in the soft close cabinets and drawers.

When you finish renovating the cabinets, the old pulls and knobs won’t always look refreshing. You can color them or replace them with a better-looking set of knobs and pulls. It’s better if your new pull set has the same center-to-center dimension, as you won’t need to worry about drilling new holes and fixing the old ones.
All the appliances in your kitchen, such as the refrigerator, oven, microwave, dishwasher, and all other small devices, act as the focus of the cooking area. When you’re remodeling the whole area, you should consider changing the appliances to match the surrounding. Not just for looks, but energy efficiency, safety, and functionality all play a part in upgrading kitchen appliances. And the holiday seasons are best for getting new appliances, as most companies offer holiday specials discounts. You can also save money by selling the old appliances.
The kitchen sink is the part that we need to use all the time. That’s why this place gets messy most often. You can replace the sink with a smart or digital sink that will keep the dishwashing area looking tidy and new. However, replacing the sink can be a costly project. But you can always replace the faucets with new, elegant sets with very small expenses, and the dishwasher surrounding will look better.
The countertops get messy often since we prepare the dishes there. You can try upgrading them by applying a new protective coating. For a brand-new look, you can try changing the material of the countertops with granite, quartz, marble, concrete, and so on. After you completed the decluttering on the countertops, you’ll have a better visual at the shape of your countertops.
The switch plates and outlets in your old kitchen become dirty and hideous over time. If your whole kitchen looks great after remodeling but the outlets look old and discolored, it can be an eye sore. Consider changing the outlets or painting them.
To remodel your kitchen, you can also try upgrading the dining area, as by transforming this area, you can make the whole kitchen more functional and aesthetically pleasing. You can renovate the area by selecting the right furniture, selecting the proper lighting and color scheme, and investing in an updated set of tableware.
If your budget allows, you should upgrade the flooring to bring out the best in all of the other renovations. However, you can also make the floor better and more comfortable by adding extra rugs. There are many options for flooring, so be sure you consider the best option for your family’s needs.
Lighting can change the look of your kitchen, no matter how much you upgrade other areas. If there are unnecessary shadows and glares, people will feel uncomfortable just by being there for a few minutes. That’s why it’s necessary to properly plan the lighting style and upgrade if necessary. Also, you can add some decorative lighting like chandeliers, globes, or dangling pendants.
Introducing backsplash tile or wallpaper can add another dimension to your kitchen. The whole area can even look wider and larger with a specific color of backsplash. Moreover, recently, many 3D tiles and prints have become available that can make your guests drop their jaws. And you can get all the benefits without spending much since the backsplashes aren’t that expensive.
Since there are major and minor renovations you can do to remodel the kitchen, you may think about doing the minor changes yourself to save money. But in case you want to make major changes without hiring anyone, we recommend you not do things all by yourself. Leave the remodeling to the contractor or professionals; otherwise, the new kitchen may turn out worse.
