Bathroom remodeling question of the week: Mark, I want a new TOILET. Could you come by and see if you think I should order a 10” toilet? I measured from the wall and I think that’s what I need, but I’d appreciate your opinion before I order it (1 choice via Ferguson’s). Then fix the flange, remove the old one and install a new water-sense toilet for me? Answer: Yes we will measure so you get the right-sized toilet and install it for you. We also provide info on a low-flow toilet rebate of $100 that you could receive if your home was built before 1994 and you replace a 3.5 gallon per flush with a Water Sense certified low-flush toilet. Question above was from a Charlottesville, VA homeowner in the Greenbriar neighborhood. Lets upgrade your old water-wasting toilet too, email us at debowcontracting@gmail.com #bestbathroomremodelercharlottesville #newtoilet #charlottesvillehomeremodeling #bathroomremodeling Question: What is the best GROUT for a new bathroom tile shower?
A: Epoxy-based grout (not cement based grout) has MANY advantages well worth it. It never needs sealed, it is nonporous, the water content and color are consistent. We like Mapei Flexcolor CQ ready to use and its available in many colors. Copy & paste this video link on youtube to learn more: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L48Zc4SXWs0&list=PL3G3ahVY8-2EASPBzk3QvNTe7Q9P6dAGA&index=5&t=0s Why? Because the daily moisture-level in showers, from both direct water, steam and condensation, if mismanaged (no exhaust fan, poor drainage) leads to all sorts of problems for the wrong old cement-based grout that can be problematic because it is POROUS and easily absorbs moisture. This can lead to a breakdown of the grout itself or to the risk of cracking, shrinkage, or spots of mold over time. So epoxy-based is a much BETTER choice. #Mapeiflexcolorcqgroutbathroomshower #bestbathroomgrout #charlottesvillebathand tileremodel Bathroom remodeling question of the week, "How much is it to REMOVE this jacuzzi-tub so we can have a new, bigger, tile shower?"

How to shop for bathroom ventilation fan?
|
Bathroom remodeling question of the week, How to shop for a bathroom ventilation fan? Answer: 1. Get the right size fan for your room.
2. Energy-star rated 3. Need a durable, quiet motor that won't overheat. 4. Noise level is measured in "sones", so less than 1 sone is quiet (0.5 or 0.3). 5. Compare features:Do you want a led-light, movement sensor, adjustable speed, timer? 6. Measure to see if the bracket will it fit between the rafters in the attic above your bathroom ceiling? 6. For a 5x8 bathroom we like the basic Panasonic Whisper FV-0511 VQ1 model. |

What is the least expensive, easy to clean, durable replacement for bathroom shower WALLS?
|
Bathroom Remodeling Question: The tile and grout around our tub and shower is old, what is the least expensive, easy to clean, durable replacement for shower WALLS? Answer: Bathrooms endure a lot of water and soaps/shampoos so professional cleaning is a surprisingly effective first step on tile. Replace with porcelain tile, ceramic tile, or wall kits. Large format tiles 12x12" or larger often have a lower labor cost to install than smaller 3x6 subway tiles (fewer cuts to fit and less grout around them). Showers look less busy with larger tiles.
PORCELAIN tile is most durable, environmentally friendly, absorbs less water since its made from a finer clay and fired at a higher temp so its dense, mold resistant and is a great long-term value. Stone and wood-grain looking porcelain tile is very popular. GLAZED CERAMIC tile is affordable, durable, low-maintenance, easy to clean and available in many colors and 6x6" and larger sizes. GLASS tile is impervious to water, mold-resistant and translucent and reflects light beautifully but is higher priced and could be limited to one wall as an accent. Its available in many colors. Caution: Glass is slippery and should not be used on floors. Ceramic tile and porcelain are KING & QUEEN of the shower! Tub and shower surround KITS vary in quality but are usually most affordable and install quickly (less labor). Kits by Swanstone and Kohler appear to have better quality finishes. Read reviews on kits before purchasing. STONE: Although beautifully textured, natural stone is most porous (absorbs water) and requires the most maintenance (resealing) in a shower and and can be expensive both for materials and labor (harder to cut). Slate, marble, travertine and granite are used on shower walls. Tips: Natural stone pieces can VARY in color, pattern, thickness SIGNIFICANTLY (sample may be from different part of quarry). Make an appointment at a tile store (Sarisand, Morris, etc) to discuss options, properties and costs of tile and stone. Consider PORCELAIN that LOOKS like natural stone and marble for greater durability, non-porous, color consistency. Floor TIP: Select 2x2 sized-porcelain tiles,not the smaller 1x1 tiles. Avoid most white marble on wet shower floors to avoid discolorations and the need to maintain and reseal frequently. Lets replace your old shower walls too. Contact debowcontracting@gmail.com after you select your tile or wall kit. #bestbathroomremodelercharlottesville, #bathroomremodelingcharlottesville, #replaceshowerwallscharlottesville |
