Upper Saddle River Bathroom Remodel

Unless your home is brand new, chances are you have at least one bathroom that is in need of a remodel. With so many types, styles, and colors of tile, it’s difficult to know where to start. We are showcasing our latest bathroom projects featuring designed and installed. Hopefully, these photos will provide some inspiration and help you find a look for your remodel project!

Most homes have a hallway bathroom that features a shower over a tub. A bathtub is a great feature for bathing kids, pets, and maybe even enjoying a relaxing soak on a rare occasion. Tiling above a tub is necessary to protect the walls from water and you are typically working above a white or off-white bathtub.

SHOWER TILE IDEAS

In the master bathroom, many homeowners are opting to remove their bathtub and replace it with a large shower.  Showers are more practical for most people. Plus, a large walk-in shower with a bench, grab bar and removeable showerhead are perfect for homeowners who are aging in place.

As for shower tile designs, neutral colors are still the most popular. White, grey, and beige are the most requested tile. While the color patterns are simple, we can add interest through texture, pattern, and color combinations.

For this project the blue and white is off-set with light gray walls. the Subway pattern is featured on the bathroom floors, while the shower and accent wall have large tiles.  The pedestal sink makes the space feel open and storage is provided with a wall cabinet.

TEXTURED SHOWER TILE

A modern, streamlined look is possible without being boring. Another way to add character to a tiled shower is to use tile with some texture. Tile with an irregular surface is becoming more popular.  Ceramic and porcelain tile is manufactured with both uniform and irregularly “shaped” surfaces which can appear to be molded. For a more masculine look, stone-look tile adds authenticity with a rough, raw surface. This tile is also great for shower floors to help prevent slipping.

LARGE FORMAT TILE

Large format tile is another trend we’ve been installing in our customer’s bathrooms. These large format tiles give a sleek, modern look. They can be used on shower walls and bathroom floors for a consistent appearance. Large format tiles are typically porcelain which is low maintenance and durable. The limited grout lines make cleaning a breeze.

BATHROOM FLOOR TILE IDEAS

Various wood-look tile continues to be very popular for bathroom tile floors. Of course, these faux wood tiles are actually made of porcelain so the floor is watertight. These wood-look tiles vary from very rustic looking, to more modern with just a hint of a hardwood appearance. To make these floor tiles a little more unique, playing with the layout of the tile is an idea. In the last photo, we laid these tiles  in a subway tile pattern  in the powder room area.
