Are you sick and tired of your shower enclosure? Are you putting up with moldy shower curtains you can’t clean and have caused you to become a ‘regular’ at your Bed, Bath and Beyond store? Or are you the ‘victim’ of wobbly and impossible to clean flimsy shower doors the builder slapped in years ago? […]
Do the words ‘custom shower remodel’ make you break out into a cold sweat? If you’re like most people, it sure does. Custom = Expensive.

You’re not one to jump on the ‘latest fad,’ but the use of matte black in new and remodeled bathrooms (and homes in general) has caught your eye. You’ve seen the matte black windows with the white lap siding in Modern Farmhouse designs cropping up like wildfire. You’ve seen matte black handles and shower heads […]
