917 Kitchen and Bath Designers

Why do I need a professional who specializes in kitchen and bathroom renovation and design?

While looking for bathroom remodeling contractors or kitchen renovation experts you may often find professionals who specialize in both rooms. This is because these space have a lot in common. Kitchens and bathrooms include an abundance of fixtures that require careful planning and installation, including sinks, faucets, tubs and toilets that all need water hookups and drainage. They also use similar materials, such as tile and stone for countertops and flooring, due to the nature of their use. So it makes sense that professionals who works on the kitchen remodel and design also works on the bathroom construction or redesign.

What do kitchen designers or bathroom remodel professionals do?

Bathroom designers, as well as kitchen designers, are constantly staying on top of trends in the ever-changing industry. The designers know the best layout for your room, and can configure the layout for optimal functionality and utilization of the space. In the kitchen, the refrigerator, stove, and sink should be laid out in relation to one another, and it should be seamless and easy to move from one to the other. A kitchen and bathroom designer will know how to work with a contractor and architect to plan the flow of the room to work best for your needs.

Professional bath and kitchen remodel experts specialize in altering the structure of an existing space, rather than building one from the ground up. Because he or she must deal with existing challenges and constraints, the job can get more complicated than new construction.
Most bath & kitchen renovations involve architectural plans from page to reality; these contractors are also trained to provide design services so that you don’t have to hire a separate pro. Like a general contractor, a kitchen and bathroom remodeling contractor is responsible for hiring and supervising subcontractors and providing materials when necessary.
