Our client approached us wanting to really let her creative side take off with a remodel of her Master Bathroom. The original space was dark, felt cramped and she wanted it to feel bright and lively. We began brainstorming with doodles and the idea of a tile waterfall was born. Opening up the space was also crucial, so removing the silly partial walls and adding a window to allow fantastic light to pour in was made a part of the plan.

The initial build of this van was to get it travel ready in as short of time as possible and it worked well for awhile, but the vibrations of adventurous travel took it's toll and the stock, box store cabinets were coming apart at the seams. We rebuilt the lower cabinet box with plywood to better withstand the abuse of #vanlife and updated the storage with drawers for better organization. The upper cabinets were removed and custom boxes made from baltic birch were installed with top-hinged doors for better access to contents. The drawers were secured with a custom auto-locking latch to prevent opening during driving.

This bathroom had a uniquely large tub which we kept, but everything else desparately needed an update. The pink tile was adhered directly to drywall with no waterproofing (lucky the house is in dry, Central Oregon) and the outdated vanity and trim was ready for a makeover. We installed a fully waterproof shower surround system topped with large-format porcelain tile and a convenient niche. The vanity was refinished, elevated 4 inches and received brand new red oak shaker doors & drawer fronts.  A beautiful VG fir trim package was also installed.

Time had caught up to this bathroom and it needed a refresh and some pizazz. The linoleum and fiberglass shower had to go! So, away they went and we replaced them with a brand new acrylic tub and some great looking tile, complete with niches to provide storage space whether our client was showering or taking a bath!

Unfortunately, this showerhead was leaking and the light mist of water wreaked havoc on the drywall above the shower surround. Thankfully it was only in the drywall, so new mold-resistant gypsum and some drywall mud magic made it look like it never happened. Don't worry, we made sure the shower head isn't leaking anymore!

Wood is durable, but it needs love to keep it looking fresh and beautiful! This deck was overdue for a refinish but with a little elbow grease and the right finish, it's back to looking beautiful and keeping that water beading up on the surface instead of soaking in.
