Here's the First Step

You are welcome to visit our showrooms at any time. However, if you are serious about developing a preliminary cost estimate, call our Bathroom Specialist Chris Watters at 908-850-5500 and schedule an appointment. Chris covers both showroom locations, so be sure to call ahead.

Our bathroom cost estimating “models” are easy to apply if you bring this information to your appointment with Chris:

	The overall length and width of the room. (You don’t have to be too precise – round-off to the closest inch or so.)
	In your new bathroom (not your existing one, unless this information will remain unchanged) you will have which of the following, and how many: - Tub/shower combination - Tub - Stall shower - Commode - Sink - Bidet
	With this information, our “models” will give us a starting point in budgeting your project.

Style, or "The Look"

Review the Style pages on our website, and find the “look” that appeals to you. Also, collect pictures from magazines that illustrate features or looks that you’d like to include. Focus on:

	Your color preference for porcelain plumbing fixtures (tubs, sinks, etc.)
	Your finish preference for faucets and tub/shower sets
	The tile color palette that you’d like to work with
	Countertop preferences – in material selection as well as color tone
	Lighting . . . it is critical in bathroom design, both for the overall appeal of your room and for effective task illumination. We will guide you through our lighting options, but if you find pictures of fixtures that appeal to you, cut them out and bring them in.

Well, that's a good beginning

There is much more ground to cover - many questions that we’ll be asking, and your ongoing feedback will be required. We’ll discuss how we can provide adequate storage, sufficient drawer space in your cabinetry, and a lot more.

We will be a valuable resource to you in providing informed guidance, enabling you to make good decisions that are necessary to the success of your project. Call us at 908-850-5500 any time if you have questions, need assistance working your way through this information or to set up an appointment.
