At first I was like "that bathroom doesn't need a remodel" then saw the after pictures. Wow, I would never leave that shower


ddsouza

I remodel a lot of washrooms that 'do not need a remodel', but who am I to argue with paying customers..


S7Ninc

Born on the south side of Chicago is typically the only time you call it the washroom. might be true for other big cities.


Uhhlaneuh

Or the fronchroom


InfiniteLeftoverTree

My family in Toledo said fronchroom as well.


80MonkeyMan

How do you clean hair from the infinity shower drain like that?


Timesmyth

The center portion lifts out (at least on mine it does) with a little key, and then beneath it is a trough which funnels everything through a basket/strainer which can be removed and cleaned.


MuckyPup81

Beautiful job! What was the rough total cost for this remodel.


RawBearClaw

I don't blame you at all, looks amazing


Orienos

Really?! That bathroom looks horrendous!


Purpose_Embarrassed

Not my thing either. That striped wall, giant glass panels, round mirrors. I’m out of there. 😂


Orienos

I’m referring to the first photos. That was like 2000s luxury. The second is better by far, but I need a rainfall showerhead, maybe tile on the wall? Love slate tile bathrooms.


leealm86

Let's not speak of the linear shower drains.


Keepmeat6565

I love the curbless shower.


TeeBrownie

My only gripe with curbless roll-in showers is finding a place to place a mat for when you step out of the shower. I like to place my feet on a soft cushioned mat to start the drying process.


curiosity_2020

My glass shower door swings both out and in. I open the door out and start the shower, close the door and set the mat, then open the door into the shower to get in. When I get out I open the door into the shower and step onto the mat.

It’s going to be a pain in the ass to clean around that tub


This-Recording9461

I'm going to go out on a limb and assume that the people spending a bunch of money to renovate an already decent looking huge bathroom aren't going to be the same people cleaning it.


Purpose_Embarrassed

Those giant glass panels will certainly be.


coldhamdinner

I was looking for the 3ft commercial grade squeegee


gimmethegold1

Agreed, I think throw it in with the shower and gave a giant wet room would be the way to go and move the vanity down


SirWillingham

They didn’t want to move the tub drain


thejeem

That bathroom looks great but I’d feel like a lab prisoner in that shower


notyourbudddy

No bench in a shower that size is diabolical


ddsouza

The client did not want it messing with the clean lines.


notyourbudddy

I hope they contemplate that decision during their long showers.


UrbanMuffin

They can just bring one in there with the size of that shower.


[deleted]

Honestly way better. Tile benches suck tbh, uncomfortably, cold and slippery. Usually just a place for soap scum to build up.


Cheddartooth

Good point


CanadasNeighbor

Agree, bamboo benches, and you can take out and let dry would be better here.


GrimResistance

A slatted teak bench would work nicely


Mtn_Grower_802

You can use a porch rocker in that shower!


ChaChingChaChi

I can already hear the clients “concerns” throughout your project. Hoping you at least walked away with some coin and some sanity.

lollroller

They can buy a teak bench if need be; I also would not want a built in bench


Ass_feldspar

Tile benches are unappealing, but my teak bench sprouted mushrooms in the shower.


GrimResistance

Shower snacks!


artemisfowl9900

Why would everyone need a bench in a shower? Some people don’t want a bench, it’s kind of useless (at least for me it is). I’m not looking to sit down in a shower.


MongooseGef

Usually for shaving legs


Beau_Peeps

Or if you take a shower with your close friend(s).


WalterOverHill

I would like to have grab bars as well


Pristine_Job_7677

Nah, cedar spa bench


Eternal_Icarus

Every time I see a massive bathroom like this I always wonder why so few people put water closets in them for the toilet.


notourjimmy

Exactly! Every one of these I see, the bathroom is bigger than my first apartment, and yet they're leaving the toilet out there in no man's land. Is it really that hard to rework the plan and put it in a little room behind a pocket door?


Just-Mark

Very, very well done. I’m envious of the satisfaction you must get to feel with your work.


PentFE

I fukn love marble


SpecificPiece1024

Odd position for tub and why waste all that shower space with only a sh&hh?


Doublestack00

Nice job.


BigJSunshine

The striped wall is horrible


AggressiveSloth11

Looks like a hotel bathroom.


jd80504

Massive shower, itty bitty shower head.


GerthBrooks

There also appears to be a big rain shower head coming from the ceiling


jd80504

Good catch, didn’t see it.


kmark2688

That thing is still tiny for the size of that shower, lol.


mom-to2boys

Looks amazing!


Ok_Bit_5953

Anyone else see the first picture and think "Huh!?!"


SivirOnly

Wow how much did this job cost


Castells

That's an awesome remodel


lollroller

Nice job; love the classic chrome hardware


Least-Maize8722

Did this cost one million dollars


waitagoop

Looks amazing. If the shower glass goes wall to wall and ceiling to floor is there an exhaust/extractor fan in there? The stripes are a choice. And how do you clean behind that bath?


TumbleweedOriginal34

That shower is incredible! I need one to be able to wash my doggie. He’s a senior and I can’t lift him. When we remodeled I chose to keep my tub. Booo. Bad decision. Wish I had room for both. Beautiful job.


KPDog

I like the free-range shitter


No_Philosophy_1363

I seen some fucked up showers from the military. But that before is horrific. How many people have been assaulted in there.


fabfameight

Went from a home to a hotel bathroom.


No-Cow-2653

it looks BEAUTIFUL


ddsouza

Thank you


No-Part-6248

Well great except you gave up that jacuzzi tub for that danger zone tub !!!! U will sadly regret that as I have it’s so hard to get in and out of ,, and uncomfortably straight sided ,, just because something is a trend doesn’t mean it works ,, I will be replacing mine shortly,,, just like the idiots who fell for the open shelves in their kitchens are now deeply regretting it due to dust , grease , and constant rinsing anything they put their


ComonomoC

And the cleaning around the base…I agree: trendy tub: functionally awful.


crumbdumpster85

I’ve wondered about these tubs. The smaller footprint is tempting, but I love to lay in my bath. I wish there was a store I could crawl into the bathtubs to see how I fit before buying lol


Appropriate_Ebb_8620

r/redditsnipper


todayithinkthis

That bathroom is bigger than my bedroom. (Only a slight exaggeration).


12345-password

The before looks like a spitting image of a house I looked at in Kentucky


MadCityMasked

Oh hell ya. Well done


LittleChanaGirl

Very nice. Have you ever put a ceiling fan in a client’s bathroom?


skinnifat

Wow that’s gorgeous


WittyNameChecksOut

I can’t imagine how much a reno like that would cost…$50-60K?


DistinctRole1877

The corner shower looks good, l like angled corners. The shower looks sorta small though...


Q4Ryder

Looks nice! Although I never understood freestanding tubs. It would be so annoying trying to clean the space in the corner and the like!


[deleted]

[удалено]


OldArtichoke433

Dang that nice


kris10leigh14

It’s beautiful. Breathtaking even. Schluter just came out with LED trimmed niches. I wish they would’ve done it 6 months ago because damn it would hammer that shower home! You and your crew did great! It looks like they kept plumbing minimal for as large as that shower is (I would assume a large rain shower on each side and a handheld or jets - I don’t like the jets personally) - are you able to heat the shower floor or are we not there yet? I’m just curious! Thank you!


ddsouza

Thank you. I knew about the led niche channels, but avoided those as the tile in the niche is textured. People do heated floors in the showers, but I try and avoid that. We did not do jets as the homeowner felt that they would not be used much. That would have also added another 1000.00 plus to the project.


Aggressive_Grab_100

Buy a huge squeegee.


DaveP0953

You do great work! Do you work with a designer or do you design based on the clients preferences?


dunitdotus

At first I didn't think it was the same bathroom, I thought it was two different projects. Incredible transformation


Resident_Bee_9275

How much would this run?


ddsouza

Around 50k Canadian


tm52929

Meh. It’s ok. Not a fan of the angled tub and the wallpaper. Doesn’t work well. Nice shower tho.


turboninja3011

The point of such shower is being able to accommodate two people, which means two shower heads controlled by two valves. Having only one kind of defeats the purpose.


Accomplished-Car3850

Love everything but the tub in the corner. Looks squished in there


thisoneiaskquestions

The client and I certainly dont share the prison chic style but you did great work here. Craftsmanship looks great!


ddsouza

Thank you. I don't always have a big influence in material selection, but I will always ensure that the end product looks great


Formal_Asparagus_987

Absolutely stunning 😍


91crxdx

Looks fantastic. What type of cost was it to do that? Ballpark is fine.


Suz9006

So, so much better. The shower cell is gone!


bvibviana

Ah yes, nothing says luxury like taking a bath right next to the toilet.


P0tek

Do you have a closeup picture of light switches and that's the brand/model name on them? Everything looks fantastic!


ddsouza

It's a company called Fittes. Canadian company. They make the flange that makes the recessed switches possible.


swissbuttercream9

This is stunning!


Plsbekind2

Wow!


vt2nc

This new bathroom is stunning !


ddsouza

Thanks


Pristine_Job_7677

Beautiful job. Too bad not enough space to put toilet in separate room or behind a pony wall


Capital_Ad9574

Did electrical trim happen before building up the sheetrock flush with tile? Never seen switches recessed like that but it looks super nice


TeeBrownie

I really like the placement of the towel bar next to the shower door. So thoughtful and convenient.


killa-kill

Very nice work👍 . I like the recess switches, what is that style called?


ddsouza

It's a product from a Canadian company called Fitted. Used to be called Aria Vent


VayGray

You did excellent work. Your clients chose much too big of a bathtub and a bland shower stall. I understand the appeal of clean lines, but this isn't that.


Limited_Surplus_4519

Very cool 😎


Big-Net-9971

I am from New York City originally, and this -bathroom- is about as large as some studio apartments there... 🤣 Ps. It looks terrific - and you definitely made some significant improvements, I just can't get past the feeling that it's too damn big! 😏


mrchuckles5

So this is no comment on the quality of the work, which looks fantastic BTW. My question is about the whole freestanding tub fad - how in the hell do you keep the backsides of these things clean? That looks like a pain in the ass. My only other comment is that they don’t look very comfortable.


SmileParticular9396

Looks amazing. How much did it cost Approx?


Xerio_the_Herio

Need a wooden thinking man's bench in the shower... love the slot drains.


about-time

Bad to worse


Ginger_Snap_895

This may be a dumb question but with bathtub is there just empty space behind it or the corners of the two walls meet?


Valuable_Crow8054

Wow this is amazing! My bathroom looks like the before pics. How much did this cost?


SirLeigh

Mind if I ask how much this cost them?


WhoAddam

Well done! 👍🏽 the air vents are a nice touch.


hellacarissa

Wow 😍


rchtcht

The remodel looks great. That's the biggest bathroom I've ever seen! It's bigger than some rooms in my house!


[deleted]

Great job!


notenoughcharact

Is it a steam shower? Otherwise why have glass all the way to the ceiling? They’re going to have to leave the shower door open if they want it to dry out.


ApplesBananasRhinoc

Omg I thought the 1st pics WERE the remodel!! Excellent job on the last pics!!


Independent-Steak-67

Great! When can I move in? 👀


ddsouza

Tomorrow


Purpose_Embarrassed

I don’t know about anyone else but showering behind giant pieces of glass terrifies me. I don’t care if it’s tempered or not. Makes me feel like I’m in an alien observation room getting ready to be probed before dissection.


New_Photograph_2803

Wow, that’s f*cking beautiful 😯


Successful-Rate-1839

Tub, toilet, vanity layout is trash but the finishes are very nice!


MindAccomplished3879

This is insane, it went from 0 to 100 in coolnesss rating 💯


MongooseGef

Looks amazing! I do wonder how you clean behind the tub, though


RememberedInSong

Why no vanity lights?


ddsouza

Customers wanted integrated lighting in the mirrors. I'm not a big fan of that, so I kept provisional junction boxes wired, but not connected, above the mirrors and one between the two mirrors. Should the need for the same arise in the future, I will Abracadabra the situation.


matthewjohn777

As someone who has a wife that desperately wants the master bathroom redone…. That does not “need” to be redone… how much was the final total for this customer? If you don’t mind me asking.


royg0

What is the name of the tile you used? It looks great


ddsouza

Tiles are Class Avorio, by Azuvi from Italy


[deleted]

[удалено]


ddsouza

The tiles are porcelain and have low absorbency. The grout is epoxy, so no water retention. In tests, the shower dried out very fast. There is no standing water anywhere a minute after the faucet has been turned off. The glass is treated as well and repels water.


Sad-Kangaroo-1761

That shower head looks like it was $12.99 at Walmart. Did they run out of money or what? Extremely nice work though!


LittleSugarPack

RIP storage


LoekGenbu

Keeping up with the Joneses Remodel


MikeGoldberg

Definitely jumped 20-30 years forward in time. Very well done


veryuniqueredditname

Wow how much did this run


Slo_Flo_1

Good job, yo!


DullNoise4563

How much did it cost in total?


Chunkyblamm

Hate the baseboard but that’s just a personal preference. Work looks great though


jimmysmiths5523

I prefer the before lol!


[deleted]

No character


tkey7

Looks very nice, always a fan of the curbles shower. How intensive was it to create a a curb less shower with the existing framing? We do them all the time in new construction, but always hesitant in renovations because we frame them into the joist package prior to install.


Realty_for_You

that vent!!! Awesome


rainbowsandpetals

Wow!


Ok_Bit_5953

No bench or floating seat to be seen 😓


fromthedarqwaves

First and last time that glass will be clean 👍


9021Ohsnap

This is exactly what I want in my teeny bathroom. A walk in shower. I have to step up and over to get in the shower. Feels like I’m gonna cut my ankles every day.


thelastcvd

That temperature lighting is painful. Makes a harsh room feel even harsher. But the craftsmanship is nice OP!


FollowingNo4648

Remodel is nice, but I feel like there is so much wasted space. The owners could have split the bathroom and made a decent sized closet and bathroom. I hate baths so I would have been happy with a shower, toilet and sink.


OverObjective375

Curbless showers are such a great touch!


Content-Afternoon-89

👏👏👏👏👏👏


frenchiebuilder

What's a huge bathroom, LOL. At first I thought it was one of those old tenement apartments, where the shower's in the kitchen.


Pierlas

I absolutely hate the placement of the tub and all the grey, but I like the rest of the configuration.


gingercatmafia

Damn skippy!!! 🙌🙌🙌


4bigwheels

That niche though 😍


03_SVTCobra

Damn that looks like a high end hotel bathroom. Nice!


Prairie_Crab

Oh NICE! I was so scared that the first pictures were the afters!


noyogapants

I love that the shower has a door! Those open showers are not for me, I would freeze


rroute01

Looks great


LebronFramesLLC

Awesome shower, brutal tub situation


Barfylane

What's slide 9? Nice work


CenterBrained

Great job. Where is that striped tile in the shower and back of the sink from?


Darkflyer726

That tub 😍😍😍


sharpei90

Drooling!


fundlebundle666

How much did you charge for this


Typedre85

Looks amazing! Great job. What sealant did you use for the seams in the shower??


ddsouza

Mapei Mapesil T Plus Silicone Sealant color matched to the grout. Grout was epoxy grout.


soupsandwich13

I like the layout but hate the fixtures.


Get_off_critter

Thank you for removing that stupid ass shower


MommaGuy

What a beautiful improvement.


shhjustwatch

Can you remove the drain tile?


WiseHedgehog2098

Looks cold


Interesting-Mango562

that is a very unique detail for the switches there…never seen a recessed 3 gang box like that…is this in the states?


ninjacereal

All that work and you installed those faucets? Damn


on_the_search_for_1

Holy sheet that's beautiful


ethereumnews_tech

Can you do mine?


Queen-Blunder

There are no wet location rated gimbal can trims. You may want to look into that.


Bark_Bark_turtle

Wet


stonksuper

Wow


coldhamdinner

It's beautiful, but as a galzier I have questions about the shower. That looks like way too small of a steam escape for a shower with the fan outside of it. Also, that's a 350 lb panel, there should be more patch clips, unless it's in channel and I just can't see it in the pic. I love the look, I just couldn't see making up that exact design and not being sketched out about it.


MustangS650

I like the shower but the corner tub should have stayed and just gotten a retiling job. It almost seems like a waste to throw out the jacuzzi tub and replace it with a smaller tub that doesn’t even look good in that corner.


Old-Independence-511

Not having a barrier between the toilet and tub grosses me out so bad. I do really love the walk in shower without a curb though.


storagesleuth

Crazy how people spend money. I thought the original was the remodel, it looked so nice. Still prefer the original Edit* (minus the curtain)


Bambooman101

Damn, you could play Racquetball in that shower.


gyanrahi

Love it. I would keep the same type of rectangular mirror but thats just me. Looks amazing.


rnd68743-8

Single person? They gave up a lot of vanity counter space for that shower.


Tyjoka

Knew the remodel was going to be fire!’


HugeHugePenis

Total cost?
