Bathroom Contractor Making Waves in Orange County Tile

By Inspired Remodels / Bathroom Remodel / Comments Off

Subway tile is so last decade. It may still be a favorite in Orange County homes, but one bathroom contractor is breaking the mold and breaking away from the pack. Inspired Remodels makes waves with its creative use of tile in the bathroom. You’ll never think of bathroom tile the same way again.

Luxury Tile for a Luxurious Bath

Luxurious bathrooms deserve luxury tile. Every bathroom contractor who ever completed a bathroom remodeling project knows this! Then why do so many stick with regular subway tiles?

For this bathroom remodel, Inspired Remodels installed Porcelanosa tile for the accent wall. If you don’t know this luxury tile brand, you should.

You’ll find trendsetting and cutting-edge design any time you find Porcelanosa. From mosaics to glazed relief tiles, their wall tiles offer beauty and refinement. That’s why they are an Inspired Remodels trusted vendor for tile.

The relief tile in this bathroom adds to the spa-like experience. You can almost feel the waves wash over you as your blood pressure drops and your serenity rises.

Now, that’s a luxurious bathroom in Costa Mesa and it just wouldn’t be the same with plain subway tile.

Get Stoned

You read that right. One bathroom contractor is getting Orange County bathrooms stoned. And the homeowners love it.

Stacked stone is a modern way to bring a natural vibe to luxury bathrooms. Use stone to get a rustic or chic look.

Quartzite and travertine make popular choices. But even marble and slate get in on the action. With proper wall preparation, you never worry about stone discoloration.

There’s something to be said for the rustic charm of stacked stone. In this bathroom, the texture contrasts beautifully with the smooth countertop surface and the color complements the hardwood cabinets. Simply breathtaking!

Pickets, Leaves, and More Oh My!

Tile comes in so many incredible shapes, why stick to squares and rectangles?

Inspired Remodels isn’t afraid to think outside the square tile box.

This Aliso Viejo bathroom gets its chic and luxurious use from picket tile. The contrast between black and white is not only stunning but it’s clean as well. Nothing fussy here. Just drop-dead drama.

And when it comes to the unusual, this Laguna Nigel bathroom turns over a new leaf – with leaf-shaped tile that is! The leaf-shaped reflective tile makes the most of the light in the room to make a small space appear larger.

Leaves make a beautiful accent wall in this luxurious shower. Wood-look tile completes this spa bathroom. Don’t be afraid to mix and match your tile colors, shapes, and textures.

By Inspired Remodels / Bathroom Remodel / Comments Off

Remodeling the bathroom provides the perfect opportunity to add little upgrades that you will enjoy every day, year after year. A bathroom remodeler that keeps up with the latest innovations may suggest upgrades you don’t even know about. Don’t think they are trying to upsell you. They are just a great bathroom remodeler! Check out these bathroom upgrades from Inspired Remodels.

This sink area provides plenty of lighting

You’ll get brighter light focused just where you want it. And they can be easily turned off when not in use, saving energy and money.

Dual rainshower heads

Customized Showerheads

Make sure your shower head delivers the experience you expect. If you enjoy long showers but worry about wasting water, worry no more. Ask your bathroom remodeler to install a low-flow or water-efficient showerhead. This style of shower head is widely available and reduces the amount of water flowing through the head. Even long showers use a fraction of the water as a traditional showerhead. The showerhead delivers large drops of water that feels like a high-pressure head.

Speaking of pressure, if you like high pressure, make sure the bathroom remodeler installs a shower head that can deliver the pressure or massaging features you want.

Maybe you want a rain shower head but your spouse prefers a handheld shower. There’s no need to compromise. Just ask the remodeler to install a dual head.

Towel Warmers

Every bath or shower becomes a spa experience when you wrap your body and hair in a heated towel. Heated towel racks provide extra comfort and extra storage space.

For this Rancho Santa Margarita project, the bathroom remodeler added the heated towel rack right outside the shower door. This keeps the warm towels at your fingertips, whether you are in the vanity or shower area. Quick heating racks get towels heating up in as little as 5 minutes.

Heated Floors

Orange County mornings and evenings can be chilly. Stepping out of a hot shower or a warm tub shocks the toesies when they hit a cold floor.

Heated floors provide a luxurious feeling you’ll appreciate over and over again. Ask your bathroom remodeler if the flooring you selected is compatible with heated floors.

Orange County Shower Remodel Inspiration

By Inspired Remodels / Bathroom Remodel / Comments Off

If you have plans for a complete bathroom remodel or are just thinking about a shower remodel, here’s a little inspiration. Take a look at these recent Orange County shower remodel jobs and find out what’s going on in your neighbor’s bathroom. It’s okay to peek!

Sensational Subway Tile

Subway tile provides enduring beauty in any bathroom or kitchen. The simplicity of rectangular tile provides a blank palette upon which you can add decorative details. In the shower above, the subway tile sets the stage for the green glass mosaic insert. Think of the green glass tile as the supporting actor and the subway tile as the star. But subway tile is one star that’s never a diva.

No, it’s one tile perfectly content to play the strong and silent type. Enjoy the simplicity of the lines of subway tile.

Neutral subway tile is like a double dose of simplicity. When creating a spa-like experience, designers look to shapes and colors that calm.

No wonder subway tile is a favorite. This shower uses dark grout to accentuate the subway tile in the shower area and light grout in the sink area where subway tile plays a supporting role. Such is the versatility of subway tile.

And with this tub and shower remodel, white subway tile quietly lets the geometric niche tile become the star of the show. A great Orange county shower remodel is really like casting a movie or television show. You need stars, you need supporting casts, and you need a little drama and a splash of fun.

Subway tile lets you do all this and more.

Double the Fun with Your Orange County Shower Remodel

In the summer of 1976, England experienced a brutal drought. The River Thames was all but dry. The Brits with their dry humor created a conservation campaign that encouraged people to shower (Brits generally bathed) and save water. The slogan, Save Water, Shower With a Friend was born.

With the drought a part of Orange County life, showering with a friend still resonates. But now, we shower with a friend in style.

Inspired Remodels adds two shower heads with this Orange County bathroom remodel. Each bather can control their water temperature and pressure. Now that’s real customization.

And with this shower remodel, even the tub gets in on the fun. One can shower while the other bathes. Bet you even noticed the clever use of subway-inspired tile.

Put a tub in your shower remodel and create a wet room.
