Bathroom Remodel: Design and Functionality
A successful bathroom remodel begins with choosing the right materials, and the hard part is this: the most important aspects of bathroom renovations are taking place in the unseen.
Waterproofing, shower pans, leak tests, flooring, grout, sealers, sloping and so much more are essential to preventing future leaks and cracks. If a shower is not leak proof without tile, it is a failed shower. Do you have confidence in the waterproofing systems to avoid mold, rot, and other damages? Do you use Schluter, Wedi, Hydroblock, Laticrete or other new systems? Have they been truly put to the test? Is warranty really going to come through if i find myself in need of a bathroom restoration?
The sad reality is this, your tile installer must go far out of his way not just because of fear of that tiles will fall off the walls, but because of plumbing fails. On a recent project, we detected that a shower head wasn’t installed correctly, and water was steady dripping like a waterfall behind the tile, working up mold and rot. Tile installation was beautiful, but the plumber missed a costly detail. It looked great on the outside, but there was a breach on the inside. Competent tradesmen are needed, stop settling for cheap renovations, cheaper bathroom, cheap kitchen, cheap plumber, cheap tile. You are not rich enough to go cheap on your bathroom remodel. When we rippe into the wall, the leak had already rotted the subfloor, and the floor joists, and the exterior wall. Do you have the budget to demo, re-frame, re-side, re-paint, re-plumb, re-insulate, re-waterproof, re-tile, and refinish your entire bathroom section? Then move with competence, not cheap costs.
Upgrading to better ventilation will prevent mold buildup and extend the life of your materials, adding heated floors can help dry out any moisture seeping into the subfloor. A luxury that functions as mold prevention, what a thing to consider! We get endless calls to come and repair cracks, but the harsh truth is this: you got a much deeper issue in the unseen! And a bandaid fix won’t ensure future cracks from coming back.
Design goes without say, we trust you know which colors you want, but functionalty, that is a factor to not be neglected.
