  • Layout Suggestions for a New Bathroom

    One of the most important components of bathroom design is the layout. Understanding dimensions, traffic patterns, and the strategic placement of the sinks, toilet, shower, and bath tub will help you create a bathroom that is well designed and meets your specific needs.

    • An operable window In order to properly maintain your bathroom you need to make sure moisture is removed after each use. This cuts down on the potential growth of mold and mildew. In addition to a bathroom vent we suggest homeowners add an operable window that will increase circulation throughout the bathroom.
