Fresh Finishes

What are the current trending bathroom finishes?

This past year of Ann Arbor bathroom remodels has seen more interest in newer finishes, such as brushed bronze or champagne bronze. There is a whole spectrum of these bronze and gold type finishes that are becoming more popular for bathroom hardware. Unfortunately, there isn’t the same type of standardization one might find with other finishes such as chrome, brushed nickel, or black. Each manufacturer may have slightly different shades of gold/bronze for their finish, which might not be a perfect match when combined with other types of hardware. 

Because these finishes are relatively new, not all shower hardware styles and types are available in this finish. Homeowners should consider this early on in their planning process so they are able to get the complete finished look that they are looking for in their bathroom hardware.

Curbless Showers

Bathroom Remodels Ann Arbor, Ann Arbor Bathroom Remodels
Have you heard of a curbless shower?

A newer trend in Ann Arbor bathroom remodels is customers converting their existing shower, which might have a standard curb along its perimeter, to one that is curbless. This means there is no barrier between the shower floor and the floor of the rest of the bathroom. People do this for a number of reasons. Some customers are thinking about how they will use the bathroom as they age, and would prefer to remove a potential trip hazard. Many other customers simply like the seamless look.  

A frameless shower door can be used in these situations just like ones with curbs; however, curbless showers can have trouble with water leakage if great care is not taken when the floor is tiled to ensure there is proper slope for drainage.
