Choosing the Right Tiles for Your Bathroom Renovation

Tiles are not merely functional components but a canvas upon which your bathroom’s ambiance and style come to life. The selection of tiles can define the mood, create visual intrigue, and harmonize the various elements of your bathroom design. Read on to learn how to choose the right tiles to transform your bathroom.

1. Durability and Maintenance

When it comes to bathroom tiles, durability and maintenance are essential. Choose materials that can withstand the moisture, humidity, and daily wear and tear that bathrooms endure. Ceramic and porcelain tiles are popular choices due to their water-resistant properties and ease of cleaning. Natural stone tiles, such as marble, granite, and travertine, add a touch of luxury but require more maintenance.

2. Size and Scale

Larger tiles can make a small bathroom appear more spacious, as fewer grout lines can break up the space visually. On the other hand, smaller tiles can create intricate patterns and textures that add visual interest to larger bathrooms.

3. Color Palette

The color palette you choose for your bathroom tiles can influence the mood and atmosphere of the space. Light-colored tiles like whites, creams, and pastels can create an airy and serene ambiance. Darker hues, like deep blues or charcoal grays, lend a sense of coziness and sophistication. Keep in mind your preferred color scheme and the overall aesthetic of your bathroom when selecting tile colors.

4. Finish and Texture

Floor tiles with a non-slip or textured finish can prevent accidents, especially in wet areas. Glossy tiles reflect light and create a polished look, while matte tiles offer a more subdued and sophisticated appearance. Combining different tile finishes can add depth and visual interest to your bathroom design.

5. Tile Type

Different types of tiles are designed for specific areas of the bathroom. Floor tiles should be durable and slip-resistant, while wall tiles should be aesthetically pleasing. Wall tiles near wet areas (like showers and bathtubs) should have water resistance. Porcelain or ceramic tiles are often suitable for both walls and floors as they offer a cohesive look throughout the bathroom.

6. Pattern and Layout

How you lay your tiles can dramatically impact the overall design of your bathroom. Straight-set patterns offer a clean and modern look, while diagonal or herringbone patterns add a touch of elegance and sophistication. Incorporating mosaic tiles as accents can create focal points or add visual interest to areas like shower niches or backsplashes.

7. Budget Considerations

Choosing the right tiles for your bathroom renovation is a meticulous process that involves balancing aesthetics, functionality, and your personal preferences. Whether you’re aiming for a serene spa-like atmosphere or a bold and vibrant statement, the appropriate tiling will be the foundation upon which your dream bathroom is built.

What Our Clients
Say

The experience we had with Rob Shea from designing and building our new deck and replacing the old deck was outstanding. He is a true professional and the work was completed on schedule and to our satisfaction. The lead carpenter and team working with him did a fantastic job in communicating throughout the process and ensured we were pleased with the decks. We would highly recommend Rob and will make sure to tell our friends. We now will “sit back” and enjoy the new deck.

We would like to take this opportunity to share our thanks to Rob, Ian and the crew for the successful build of our deck and pergola. The total experience from proposal, contract and actual build was very professional and completed within the contracted time frame and at quote. Rob and his team were a pleasure to work with. We were on a rst name basis with the crew and would often discuss minor changes with Rob or Ian for completion. The old business concept of “the customer is always right” , which in our opinion has eroded over the years, was exhibited to us throughout this project. We were always treated with respect. The deck and pergola were built to basic design plans and pictures we provided. The outcome was something we are both happy with and looking forward to enjoying for many years.
Dick and Sue Reyome
Rob Shea has done outstanding work for me personally and also for the summer camp where I work. He built a bed frame for me over a year ago which gets compliments all the time on how well it matches the existing furniture. It has a solid build and looks great! Around the summer camp, Rob has completed a variety of projects including: building a deck, building a frame to hold a stagecurtain for our theater, and giving a make-over to one of the staff cottages. For the cottage, he built new screen doors and windows, front door, and transformed a xed window into one that now opens. Whenever we have an extra project around the camp for which we do not have the skills/tools/time, Rob Shea tops the list of who to call.
Camp Mowglis
Rob Shea did a fantastic job insulating the floors underneath two bedrooms in our Vermont home. It was a tricky job getting underneath those rooms due to the small dirt crawl space, but Rob did the job with no complaint. He was on time, worked within the amount of time as promised, the two bedrooms are much warmer now and his price was very fair. We were very happy with his services and will be calling him again when his services are needed.
Susan Rosano and Dr. Dennis Waring
Rob is tireless and talented! We worked with him on multiple home improvement projects, from bathroom and kitchen renovation to patio and re pit construction. Each project went very smoothly and Rob's expertise and skill was invaluable.
Jon & Mikka Hall
I have used Rob Shea Carpentry many times over the past several years. Rob has done everything in my home from framing mirrors to painting decks, including work in my kitchen, bathrooms and bedrooms. He is outstanding and trust worthy. I have no reservations about handing him my keys and have recommended Rob to my friends.
Glenn Steinman
We just had a few projects wrapped up and are very pleased with the work. All staff- from the quoter, to the project manager, to the laborers- were very professional, efficient, quiet frankly, just nice people. I highly recommend and will be using their services again.
Holly
Rob and his crew did several renovation projects for us this spring. They did excellent work at a fair price. We could not be more pleased with the work they did and with our experience working with them, and we will certainly work with them again on any future projects. Highly recommended.

Custom Carpentry for High-End Kitchen Spaces: Elevating Luxury and Elegance

For those seeking to transform their kitchen into a high-end culinary haven, custom carpentry offers an unrivaled opportunity to elevate luxury and elegance to new heights. Read on to explore the artistry and craftsmanship of custom carpentry specifically tailored for high-end kitchen spaces.

The Essence of High-End Kitchen Design

A high-end kitchen is not merely a functional space but an exquisite work of art. It embodies a harmonious blend of sophistication, functionality, and timeless elegance. Every detail is carefully curated to integrate aesthetics and practicality seamlessly. From premium materials to intricate finishes, a high-end kitchen exudes a sense of luxury that captivates the senses and leaves a lasting impression.

The Artistry of Custom Carpentry

Custom carpentry is the cornerstone of creating a high-end kitchen that stands out. It goes beyond off-the-shelf solutions, offering tailored designs that reflect the homeowner’s unique style and preferences. With custom carpentry, every aspect of the kitchen can be personalized, from the cabinets and islands to the countertops and shelving.

Custom Cabinetry

In a high-end kitchen, the cabinetry takes center stage. Carpenters can craft exquisite cabinets that are aesthetically pleasing and highly functional. From handcrafted solid wood doors adorned with intricate moldings to sleek modern designs with hidden hinges, cabinetry can be customized to elevate the kitchen’s allure. Pull-out spice racks, hidden compartments, and built-in organizers ensure that every utensil and ingredient has its designated place, creating an organized and clutter-free environment.

Stunning Kitchen Islands

Customized carpentry allows homeowners to design the perfect island to suit their needs. The possibilities are endless, from marble or granite countertops to exquisite woodwork and built-in wine storage. Kitchen islands can also be customized with specialized features, such as integrated cutting boards, prep sinks, or even a professional-grade range, transforming the island into a chef’s dream workspace.

Handcrafted Finishes

Finishes play a pivotal role in creating a luxurious ambiance. Custom carpentry allows handcrafted finishes that add depth and character to the space. Intricate woodwork, custom millwork, and hand-rubbed stains create a sense of artistry that exudes opulence and refinement.

Tailored Shelving and Display Units

Custom carpentry extends beyond functional elements and includes bespoke shelving and display units. These personalized spaces offer an opportunity to showcase culinary treasures, cherished heirlooms, or curated collections. Glass-front cabinets with interior lighting create a captivating visual display, adding elegance to the kitchen.

Specialized Storage Solutions

One of the hallmarks of a high-end kitchen is its exceptional organization. Custom carpentry allows for specialized storage solutions tailored to the homeowner’s needs. From custom drawer dividers to pull-out pantries and integrated recycling bins, these thoughtful features enhance the kitchen’s efficiency and make every task enjoyable.

Custom carpentry is a worthwhile investment for homeowners seeking to elevate their kitchen to the epitome of luxury and elegance. With skilled artisans at the helm, every detail is carefully curated to create a kitchen that is as unique as it is stunning.
