We recently completed a full bathroom facelift. The clients wanted to "expand" the bathroom to make room for a new baby, without changing the floorplan or taking up additional square footage. The bathroom originally had brown carpet throughout, outdated 1980s cabinetry, tile and fixtures, a dropped ceiling with fluorescent lighting, an enclosed shower, and had a wall with a door separating the sink area and the shower/toilet area. All of this contributed to the feeling of it being a "cramped" space. We removed the wall and door, the dropped ceiling, and gutted the bathroom to give us a blank canvas to work with. We added beige-toned porcelain tile for the flooring and painted the walls a creamy color. The finishing touches include a light-colored designer cabinet with a granite countertop, new white bathtub and all new fixtures, and brushed nickel recessed lighting.
Without adding any additional square footage, the bathroom manages to look much more spacious than before.

We're going to be at the Floral Park Home Tour coming up at the end of this month, April 28th and 29th. Our ad will be displayed in the home tour booklet. This tour is featuring some of Orange County's finest vintage homes and it's a must-see for all those interested in history and architecture. We've been lucky to have had a chance to work on a few homes in this area. Floral Park is one of our favorite neighborhoods in the county, a treasure trove of early 1900s to mid-century homes that are amazingly still intact. If you have the opportunity, you definitely want to stop by and get on the tour.
