Timeless Fallbrook Multi-Project Update: Bathroom Remodel Part One

Kansas City’s Leading Bathroom Remodeling: Project Spotlight

Have you looked at an area of your home and thought “you know, this isn’t bad, but it’s not exactly what I want to see here?” That’s exactly what this Blue Springs couple thought when looking through a couple of areas throughout their home. Like most homeowners, the couple wanted to invest in a home remodel, but didn’t know where to begin. As a top notch home remodeling company, Wineteer often has clients who feel that their home is outdated but don’t necessarily know what specific updates to make. Our in-house design team helped this couple by asking questions to understand what did and did not work for their home. By knowing what works and what doesn’t, we can help our clients design their dream home. That’s one of the differences you can expect from working with a design-build company like Wineteer Construction – we do the heavy lifting so you don’t have to! Don’t exactly have a vision yet? That’s okay! We have 35+ years of experience helping homeowners bring their bathroom remodeling dreams to a reality.

Bathroom Remodel Design

This homeowner decided to incorporate some of the current trends while maintaining a timeliness look. We removed the built-in tub, which can make a bathroom feel outdated, and replaced it with a freestanding tub. The freestanding tub makes the bathroom look roomier. We anticipate this bathtub trend will be here to stay for a while! One aspect of the bathroom that the couple wanted to change was the vanity drawers. The function of the space was the primary issue. For once, the layout actually worked for the couple. Oftentimes, we will completely redesign the layout for our clients to create a more functional space, but for this project we kept much of the layout the same.

Wineteer is a bathroom remodel contractor who handles projects of all sizes – from whole home remodeling to bathroom or kitchen remodels. Once you partner with us, you become family. That’s one of the main differences between us and other home remodeling companies – we are family owned and care about each and every project. Another element of this remodel that we addressed was the simple age of the pieces, so everything we brought had a modern look. Come back for part two where we’ll share about the vanity, tub, and zero-entry shower.

Optimizing a Spacious Master Bathroom: Part Two

The story of the luxury spa bathroom continues! If you haven’t yet, check out part one here where we discuss the tub area and vanity remodel. Our couple also needed help organizing their closet space. We made some simple updates by adding hardwood floors and new lighting in the ceiling. While the overall layout and function of the closet worked for this client, they didn’t like that they couldn’t close off the space, bringing the clutter of the closet into the bathroom. To combat this the Wineteer team added new barn doors, a simple way to section off the closet from the rest of the suite. These simple white barn doors with matte black fixtures bring a coziness and warm feel to the environment. While the doors are certainly a functional element of the room, they also bring in an organic and earthy vibe, making the bathroom truly an oasis.

For the couple’s new shower, we repurposed the area which previously held the toilet closet to install a new barrier-free shower. While the couple previously had an extremely small shower area, by taking over some of the spacious bathroom we were able to create a luxury shower experience in their bathroom remodel. The toilet then moved to the space where the previous shower lived. We also installed a pocket door to close off the shower and toilet area from the rest of the bathroom and suite to create privacy.

The new shower is gigantic and a much better use of the suite real estate. We used 4 x 16 subway tile in white for a simple design throughout, but we added matte black edge profiles to add a striking design element. This complements the matte black fixtures in the shower, vanity, and tub area. The shower door is a frameless shower door, standard for our barrier free showers. The floor and shower caddy both feature a black penny tile for a contrasting design element. Overall, this bathroom remodel transformed from spacious but awkward to a complete luxury spa experience!

Homeowners Remodel Homes for Greater Return

After nearly a decade of putting off any construction upgrades that were not seen as essential, like structural fixes and water leaks, homeowners are eager to take advantage of rising home values and low interest rates. A Boston Globe article, “Home remodeling, rebounds as economy improves,” estimates that “overall retail sales of home improvement products will grow 6.5 percent this year and another 7 percent in 2015.”

This rise in home improvements is a mix of homeowners hoping to finally capitalize on a returning boom in home sales and couples more confident in spending money to update an important, and often challenging, space. Either way, fully updated bathrooms offer the most bang for the dollar, significantly increasing the value and enjoyment of a home.

The recent recession took a toll on the construction industry to an extent that hasn’t been seen for decades. But this year, spending on home remodeling is on track to surpass levels not seen since 2006. No one is more excited than the Wineteer Construction team for the rebounding economy. Now is the time to update your space with modern, high-end materials.

Before you enter into a big renovation, the first steps include developing a list of renovation priorities, establishing a budget and compiling a few design ideas. At Wineteer Construction, our expert designers have experience overcoming space challenges to create the perfect bathroom remodel to fit your style. Wineteer Construction can ensure that your bathroom is practical yet stunning and soothing retreat.

At Wineteer Construction, we use the design/build concept. We will give you a written proposal and consult with you about the design and construction process. An architect may not be required because the design/build concept incorporates both design and budget planning. We offer a spacious showroom complete with sample renovations and a variety of materials and surface options to choose from.
