This is the first blog in a series about this en suite remodel. Be sure to check back frequently as we follow this project along throughout the design and remodel process.

Our clients reached out for help with the remodel of their en-suite. They want to update and refresh the existing bath by getting rid of the huge, dated tub deck and enlarging the shower. Their plans include replacing the tub with a smaller vessel-style tub and updating the shower to all glass for a clean, modern-leaning “Restoration Hardware” look. The remodel will be rounded out with new cabinets and a better space for make-up.

While we couldn’t attend the International Builder Show this year, we were interested in it and what information was featured. We spent some time researching the innovative products and wrote this blog about them. But we also were interested in the speakers and what was discussed with the attendees.

We found these topics to be of great interest around our office and wanted to share them. We’d love to hear your thoughts about these topics. Are you utilizing them in your builds or within your company?

The International Builder Show spotlights new products in the building industry and we look forward to learning about the new products and what they bring to the construction industry every year. While we couldn’t attend the show this year, we’ve done some research to find out what products were innovative and what the builders, designers, and contractors are excited to use in their projects. We know we will be utilizing some of these within our design work for our builder clients!

Columbus is in the Top 25 housing markets for investors. This leads to a competition with single family buyers, making the market even tighter. Builders have seen the demand for new homes and the push to get homes built, partly because of the lack of available existing homes. As reported in a recent Business Journal article, with information from Realtor.com, “2022 is shaping up to be nearly as competitive, but with perhaps slightly more inventory and slightly higher mortgage rates.”

We wouldn’t be where we are today without the relationships we’ve built over the years with our builders, remodelers and contractors. A client may have brought you to us, you as a company reached out to us, or we offered your names as a recommendation to our clients. The relationships we have with you are what we are most grateful for every year.
