Double Bathroom Remodel in Blaine Removes Jacuzzi

Updated and far more functional, both the kids and master bath now have the style and amenities they've always wanted. Well, the kids bath didn't get the heated floors, but they'll survive.

master and kids bath remodel in blaine

Project Summary 

The master bath and kid's bathroom were the last things to change in this Lakes of Blaine 2-story with the built-in, space-robbing Jacuzzi.  The owners had previously updated the kitchen and expanded the footprint of the home with an addition for office and other uses.

Now it was time to complete the decades-long renovation and modernize the bathrooms.  Getting rid of the Jacuzzi was at the top of the list, followed by a complete redesign of how the rest of the space operates. 

That included whether to keep the single sink in the Master or give up some counter space and go for the dual sink, which is the more traditional approach.  They opted for more sinks and mirrors.  Just goes to show that every remodel is custom and totally dependent on what homeowners want to meet their lifestyle.

They liked the wood but wanted a lighter tone and anything but oak! They also wanted some amenities, such as heated floors in the master. In the kid's bathroom, they focused on a thematic shift in color.  In both bathrooms, patterns, and textures chosen from our design center showroom were used to catch up and even surpass today’s trends.

The homeowner wrote in her Google review

We are very happy with the process and end result of our bathroom (primary & kids) remodel. We wished we had discovered Murphy Bros for our previous projects. They are easy to work with, and we knew what to expect with updates on their apps, check-ins, and overall communication. We felt cared for by McKenzie, Paul, and the entire staff.

And in her GuildQuality Survey:

Thank you for an awesome job and continued support for our bathroom remodels.  The pictures and the final look awesome. Our bathrooms are better functioning and beautiful. The only complaint from our boys is that they did not get heated floors too.
