One of the more popular projects done during this season is remodeling, whether its the kitchen or bathroom. As the years change so do the trends and we have the latest in bathroom remodeling ideas that you may see in 2019. Black is the New Grey The color grey has been a staple color theme for bathrooms since 2016 but its time to add some new elements that will make your bathroom pop. We are talking about the color black and overall darker tones to accent different amenities in the bathroom. A great place to start adding this dark color is with light fixtures, vanities, and mirrors that can have a matte finish. While these dark tones may be hard to jump right into because of how bold they are, if your hesitant, you can add them along with grey as they both complement each other very well. Technology Home automation has become more of a commodity in many homes as it makes living a lot easier. With the popularity of smart speakers, the possibilities are endless to what can be synced up in your home. We took this idea and applied it to bathroom remodeling and there are a lot of amazing things that can be added to help with your bathroom activities. In 2019, don't be surprised if you find bathrooms with smart showers, mini-fridges, and automatic sinks. Turn your bathroom into a day spa by incorporating a smart shower that you can automatically time to turn on and be ready to go at the perfect temperatures, Bluetooth speakers to enjoy your favorite tunes as you bath. There is also the possibility of adding smart mirrors can talk to you as well as implementing mini tv installments for the ultimate relaxation experience. Brass & Gold Elements of brass and gold are coming back to bathroom design in a big way. These colors are taking over sinks, toilets, as well as accent pieces on other types of vanities. Brass and gold are perfect ways to bring the bright colors of summer into your home that will give life to your bathroom design. While these colors aren't everyone's favorite, they can be added in a big way, with a golden sink, or sprinkled across the room by having golden hardware, light fixtures, and mirrors. Industrial Styled Sinks & Vanities This intricate trend may not be everyone's cup of tea, but industrial styled sinks and vanities have been making a huge wave in the commercial industry and will soon spill over to residential homes. The great thing with this style of design is that you have many options including wooden accents, funky tile patterns, and they look great with brass and gold accents. If you are looking to create a whole new experience with your bathroom, try transforming your bathroom into an industrial oasis. Tiles Adding tiles to either your bathroom or kitchen is a great idea as tile not only add a new aesthetic but also new textures to a room. Especially with bathrooms and the moisture that comes from them, tiles should be your go-to material for walls and floors. However, the days of subway tile and large format tile are long gone as more intrigue styles of tile have taken over. Be on the lookout for hexagon, arabesque, diamond, Moroccan fish scales, and chevron patterns for new tile patterns as well as tiles with new colors and textures. These new tiles are perfect for backsplashes and make great eye-catching floor art. Wood Accents One big thing with interior design trends this year has been to add natural elements and let the "green" in. With "green" being plant life and other similar accents, it is no wonder why adding wood accents to your bathroom is on this list. Wood is a great material to complement bathrooms that have white, blue, green and other darker colors in them, like black. In addition to the colors, wood pairs nicely for vintage and industrial styled pieces as mentioned above, so if you are looking to incorporate some finely finished wood to your bathroom, consider having a vanity made out of quality wood that will pop whenever someone enters the room.

Full bathroom remodels are a big commitment, they require both time and money. If you’re thinking of a bathroom remodel but can’t afford the whole package, you can start with a shower remodel. Remodeling your shower is an effective way to update a bathroom. Showers are the focal point of bathrooms and a clean, new shower can give the entire bathroom a stylish new feel and radiant shine!
One of the most exciting parts of designing the bathroom is choosing the color scheme. This is also one of the more easier tasks as you can explore a wide variety of colors and browse through color swatches at any time.
Deep Greens & Wood Accents
Hues such as hunter, olive, forest and emerald look absolutely beautiful when complemented by wood accents. Matte black fixtures are also quite striking and they create a rustic appeal. If you’re seeking a Southwestern or farmhouse design, we highly recommend incorporating deep green hues.
Cool Blues & Whites
Cool blues create a calm, relaxing atmosphere which is perfect for the bathroom. For those of you who love taking a long bubble bath, incorporate various shades of blues in the tiles, flooring or walls.
Subdued & Vivid Oranges
While orange can be overwhelming if you choose a shade that is bursting with personality, you can tone it down with a terracotta orange. Colors such as this create an energizing atmosphere without going overboard.
Classic Neutral Beiges
Vintage inspired bathrooms have been trending for quite some time and the one thing you’ll notice is the use of neutral colors. Typically, classic neutral colors such as taupes, beiges and tans work wonderfully in the bathroom to create a timeless look. Add a bouquet of flowers and some painting for a pop of color.
White & Gray
In newly built homes, bathrooms are often seen an even mix of mahogany and crisp white. The combination of these two colors creates a neutral backdrop so homeowners can add their own twist to the bathroom design. If you have a bathroom that is mahogany and white, add beveled mirror or colorful tiles to liven up the room.
Glossy Reds & Whites
Creating an inviting, fun space for your bathroom could be challenging. If you are hoping to get your kids in the bathroom every night to brush their teeth, you’ll definitely want a stimulating bathroom color scheme. For example, using glossy red wall tiles on the wall and white tile flooring then placing a red bathmat against the white tiles, you’ll notice an explosion of color.
Black & White
Last but not least is the classic black and white bathroom. These two colors paired together have been popular for decades. Whether you want a retro bathroom or a modern style, by strategically placing black and white into your bathroom, you can really create any look and feel that really appeals to you!
Renovating the bathroom can be a lengthy yet exciting process. When you budget correctly and have a plan in place, the renovation process goes seamlessly. However, if you haven’t done much planning, you could end up with more costly repairs.
Selecting the right countertops for your bathroom is much more important than you may think. Each material may seem quite attractive but you need to factor in cost and durability. Since homeowners don’t need to worry about as much damage as they would with kitchen countertops, they usually are concentrating on style rather than strength. Acrylic & Crushed Stone Countertops If your bathroom is more contemporary than traditional, then opt for solid-surface materials made from acrylic resin and/or crushed stone. Not only are these surfaces resistant to water, bacteria and stains, but scratches may be able to be buffed out. Marble Countertops Marble is long lasting but also may be porous; it can be polished into a matte finish to help with this drawback. Concrete Countertops Concrete used to be used primarily for industrial spaces but with the evolution of industrial style lofts, this countertop has been increasing in popularity. Mimicking the look of natural stone, and offered in a wide array of colors and textures, concrete is one good option for your bathroom countertop. Tile Countertops When glazed, ceramic tiles can resist heat, stains and scratches. It’s also one of the most affordable options and patterns can be customized. Ready to have your bathroom remodeled?

Recently upgraded your bathroom? Don’t let that hard work go to waste by using harsh chemicals. Take a look below at the proper techniques to maintaining your new bathroom. Cleaning the Shower Make sure to always wipe off excess water along the walls after every use. Avoid cleaning products that use abrasives or ammonia. If you notice limescale or rust buildup, try a mild acid detergent. Minor scratches and color fading can be handled with polish and wax. However, if the scratches are more severe, remove them with wet sandpaper. Cleaning the Toilet Mild detergent can be used to clean the surface of the toilet but the areas where water sits should be cleaned with an antibacterial toilet cleaner. Since the flush buttons are made with plastic, you should not use strong detergents. Cleaning the Bathtub You can extend the life of your bathtub by cleaning it with the proper detergents. Use a softer cloth to avoid damaging the bathtub. If you notice your bathtub has scratches from sanitary acrylic, these can easily be polished. Cleaning the Sink The sink can endure some serious grime and residue, especially if you consider the amount of hairspray, toothpaste, etc. that gets stuck. Light soil can be removed from all-purpose cleaner but hardened deposits should be removed with abrasive cleaners. Contact the Bath Showcase to get bathroom design advice or if you need more information regarding how to properly care for your new bathroom.
If you’re ready to update your bathroom, take some time to analyze the top trends. While black and white wallpaper might be popular now, think about whether it will be popular in the future. Choosing a timeless design that also offers functionality is one of the most crucial aspects of a bathroom remodel. Frameless Showers – In a recent survey, a majority of homeowners preferred glass showers and glass enclosures. The retro glass block look is a trend of the past! Show Me the Light – One of the major goals for homeowners is gaining more light, whether it’s direct sunlight or skylights. LED lights near the showerhead have also been gaining attention. White Cabinetry – White cabinets in the master bathroom are first on a homeowner’s checklist followed by dark wood. Opt for maple, cherry or oak! Silver Hardware – You’ve probably noticed (without realizing) silver faucets and hardware in the bathroom cabinets. Splurge on a Powder Room - If you have some additional money left in your budget, a powder room adds a nice touch. This unique feature really makes your bathroom quite extraordinary. Consider a beautiful pedestal sink, wallpaper and hardwood floors. Maybe you need one or two items to spruce up your bathroom such as a new Vanico sink or a Maax bathtub.

Many of our clients are looking to design a bathroom with their children in mind. One of the main objectives for homeowners is designing a bathroom that is completely safe for their little ones without jeopardizing the safety of their children. There is actually a slew of items on the market and DIY tasks that can be used to create the perfect child-friendly bathroom. Designing a Step Stool If you adore DIY projects, create a homemade stool to raise your children. This allows them to access the sink easily. A pine board and plywood works wonders and with some wheels, you can easily store this in the closet. Small Ceramic Tiles Little children are quite adventurous so it’s important to have enough traction so your children don’t slip. Small ceramic tiles that have grout offer enough traction to alleviate any accidents. Wall-Mounted Trough A wall-mounted trough offers plenty of room for multiple kids to access the sink at the same time. If you don’t love the color of the trough, you can easily paint this with a gorgeous accent color. Open Shelves Rather than having your children shuffle through towels and other toiletries, open shelving allows for them to grab items much quicker. Select a Large Sink A trough sink instead of double sinks is much more accommodating for children. It’s quick and simple to clean and leaves plenty of space.
