Create a Master Bath to Hang a Towel In
Client Profile & Need
Owners of a 45-year-old home in Chicago’s North Shore that did not want to move, but needed to expand their “closet-sized” master bath. The bathroom did not have room for two people at the same time, and also had no storage space. According to the client: “We couldn’t even hang a towel.”
Process & Challenges
Working closely with the clients, the Forde team:
- Drew detailed plans designed to meet the client’s needs, expectations and budget
- Went with the client to purchase the right materials, including faucets, fixtures, flooring, tile, lighting, etc.
- Completed construction of the project in a timely manner
Unique challenges to this project:
- Forde had to break through the outer walls to extend the exterior of the house, working around the chimney and roof line
- The drywall in the ceiling had to be replaced
- There were numerous leaks in the plumbing that needed to be fixed
Results of the Bathroom Remodeling Project
A new, larger bathroom including:
- A roomier shower
- Modern fixtures
- A new vanity with built in soap dishes
- Plentiful storage
- A modern, updated look
Client Assessment
“This was Forde’s third project with us, so they were already a trusted contractor. Everything is top drawer in terms of the tile and material. It was a nice, thorough job and we are very pleased. We even have a place to hang a towel.”
