Hi everyone. Looking for some help finishing up the tile design — we have 3 options. Note that the shower is on the right and the tub will sit under the larger niche on the left.
Finish the entire wall with the fluted tile, framing the window.
Finish in line with the bottom of the window.
Finish in line with where the tile currently stops in the pictures.
I am looking at what appears to be the same Kohler Purist faucet on the Kohler website and Lowe’s website. The model numbers and price are the same. Does anyone know if these are the exact same product with the same internal components? The Kohler sales rep at my local Kohler store insists they are not the same.

Ripping out the wall between shower and door - can add a built in linen cupboard there that’s half the size of the shower and use that wall to add extra room for a shower or bath/shower, however the length is only 1400mm. What would you do?

I appreciate the brutal honesty and feedback from my original post!! The tub will not have to be yellow/gold. It will be white.
The overhead lighting will be different. The sconces will be smaller and less intrusive. I kept the light blue tile for the tub and shower walls and replaced the other walls with a much lighter ceramic. Please see the attached picture for examples of the materials.
Still looking for opinions on if yall hate the light blue marble style tile and should go with something completely different. It is much lighter blue than the picture shows, it's not gray. Also the flooring has a bit of blue in it as well.
This is around what I’m looking to get for my shower remodel. I hear good reviews but then also bad reviews on Everstein so I’m on the fence now. Any recommendations on a shower system like this? I want a handheld, wall and rainfall shower head. Any and all help is very welcome! Picture is just a concept of what the shower will look similar to.
Planning a bathroom renovation lately and noticed there are so many different tile colour trends around Melbourne and Luscombe right now. Some people seem to prefer light neutral tones while others are going with darker modern styles. Curious what colours homeowners are choosing lately and which ones still look good years later.
Hi Everyone,
Full master bath renovation on a beach house.
First pic is the original bathroom. Remaining pics are the redesign/renderings + actual tile sample.
Main changes:
The bathroom is smaller than the renderings make it appear, which is why I continued the tile throughout instead of stopping on random walls.
Trying to hit upscale coastal / boutique hotel vibes without going too trendy.
Would you continue the tile throughout the room or break it up with painted walls?
Hi everyone,
We recently moved into an apartment that was empty for about a year. Soon after moving in, we noticed a cracked tile.
When my partner removed the broken pieces to repair it, we discovered that the previous owner installed the new tiles directly on top of an older layer of tiles. My partner replaced the tile, but a large gap where the grout failed right next to the linear shower drain appears after just two months.
We have called three contractors, and they all gave different advice:
Contractor 1: Says we must tear out the entire shower—both the floor and all the wall tiles—and redo the waterproofing from scratch.
Contractor 2: Says we only need to remove the floor tiles and the bottom row of wall tiles, the floor waterproofing still have to be done for the entire area
Contractor 3: Says the issue is caused by poor installation technique, which is making the tiles shift and press against each other.
Given that this is a tile-over-tile installation and the crack keeps returning, what is the correct way to fix this? Do we really need a full demolition of the walls, or is replacing the floor and bottom row enough? We also thinking of installing a shower acrylic tray if that help in the long run? Thank you everyone!
Hello I was wondering if someone could give me some advice on my shower remodel, I am terrible at designing and visualizing what the finish product will be. I had the guys at the tile store direct me in the right direction with an AI picture I will include at the end. I know the lighting is not realistic but I’m looking for that style. I’m thinking of going with this white tile shown with the small penny tiles for the floor. Will this combo look good together? I was thinking about going with the 24x48 but I heard they’re hard to install and 12x24 will be easier, and I am planning to do polished for the walls. Any other advice? I’m trying to design this in a way so it has a wow factor but when I go to sell it anyone will like it, and not have someone go why the hell did they do that. I appreciate any tips like I said I’m so bad at this.
Our existing sad (but actually still lovely) master bathroom. We badly need a reno - mostly because of cracked tiles in the shower and that fact that we *barely* fit.
We have this large walk in closet to the left of the bathroom. Is it worth breaking that wall to expand the bathroom?
I fill not even half the closet and we have another, albeit smaller, closet on the other side of the room.
We hope to live here "forever" but you never know so we want to keep some resale in mind.
We have another bathroom upstairs with a tub/tower combo (just standard acrylic set up).
Would love to hear everyone's thoughts.
I am going over in my head if this tile is supposed to meet at the corners like the image and grout will fill in the gaps. See picture of close up and from a distance. I did not hire the best of the best. This guy was referred to me by a family friend and we saw their work. It wasn’t perfect by any means but I want to make sure this job will be okay at the end or if it needs to be completely removed. (More pictures in comments). Thank you all for the advice.
I’ve been thinking about starting a home renovation project soon, .......most probably kitchen or the bathroom upgrade, but I keep hearing stories about delays, poor communication, and this is what makes me stressed ...
From what I’ve seen, having the right team seems to make a huge difference, is that really important though??
especially companies that handle both the planning and construction side of things.
What do you think helps a remodeling project go smoothly from start to finish?????
Update: I was suggested goldremodeling, which offers full design + build remodeling services (kitchens, bathrooms, and full home renovations). Has anyone used a design-build contractor like this before?
I dont know what I want, bathroom floor is blue so I definitely want it to fit in with that but I dont want to make it too blue? I dunno but white isnt cutting it for me
I couldn’t figure out why this was happening but then it hit me. The areas where my cleaning lady mops the floor up to the baseboard there is peeling. In areas she can’t reach with the mop the baseboards are fine. What are my options? I’m planning to sell my home this summer and can’t have it looking like this. I do have extra baseboard in my garage from the previous owner or maybe the builder. Is there a way to fix this without replacing or is replacing my only option?
This wall slopes inward toward the inside of the shower about 1/2" as it goes down to the floor. Contractor says it's because of the water proof material under the tile starting about midway in the wall going down? B.S.?
Should I have him redo the wall? It bothers me and is making the door trim look like crap next to it, but I know it'll be a ton of extra work for the guy.
My illustration is exaggerated to get the point across.
