Bathroom Vanities
A bathroom remodel isn’t complete without a new vanity. Vanities are a great way to transform your bathroom into a truly unique space. There are plenty of options to choose from, and it’s easy to find one that will perfectly match your desired look.
Adding a bathroom vanity during a remodel is a practical and impactful upgrade that improves both functionality and design. A well-chosen vanity provides essential storage for everyday items such as toiletries, towels, and cleaning supplies, helping keep the bathroom organized and clutter-free. It also creates a dedicated space for grooming and daily routines, improving usability for households of all sizes.
From a design standpoint, a bathroom vanity helps define the style of the room by anchoring the layout and introducing materials, finishes, and hardware that elevate the overall look. In addition to enhancing daily convenience, a quality vanity adds measurable value to the home, making it an effective investment for both immediate comfort and long-term resale appeal.

Upgrading a bathroom faucet during a remodel is a simple yet highly effective way to enhance both performance and visual appeal. A new faucet can improve water efficiency, provide smoother temperature and flow control, and reduce the risk of leaks associated with aging fixtures.
From a design perspective, a modern faucet helps tie the entire bathroom together, complementing the vanity, sink, and hardware while reinforcing the overall style of the space.
