(ARA) - There are certain things you can always count on this time of year -- heater temperatures outside, birds flying house after a long winter, much daylight and folk acquiring the itch to finally renovate that room
or bathroom that’s been bothering them for years.
In fact according to Room
& Bath Business magazine, much than $70 billion wish be spent in 2004 to do simply that. Folk spend months (and thousands of dollars) drawing up plans, buying for appliances and fixtures, color matching cabinets or countertops, picking out that outsize corner tub and deciding which type of faucets and accessories wish better highlight all of the another decisions they make.
Today, there are thousands of choices in the regulator
category. Traditional styles, contemporary styles, and now, there are even as “transitional” styles that wish look nice in either setting. As a shopper, not only do you get to choose the style, you get to choose the finish. There’s chrome, brushed chrome, nickel, brushed nickel, fabric nickel, chrome with fabric nickel accents, brass, brushed Brass, polished brass, and the list goes on.
So why do manufacturers of these faucets offer so galore choices in styling and finishes? “Personalization,” says Jeff Pratt, vice president of sales for Danze, a manufacturer of cosmetic plumbing products including room
and bath faucets, bath accessories and showerheads. “Years ago, there seemed to be a few standard finishes and styles in some
room
and bath faucets,” says Pratt. “Now consumers expect -- and merit -- a variety of choices so they can bring their life style and individual personality into their home.”
According to Pratt, the ability to purchase decorative, beautiful styles and finishes used to be much exclusive to those who could afford to spend a lot of money on their renovation or new construction project. But, with manufacturers like Danze on the scene, high fashion and design are much come-at-able for the thought
homeowner.
“Everyone wants a beautiful faucet, bath accessory or nozzle to accent the new environment they’re creating, but not everyone can afford to spend thousands of dollars on those components alone,” says Pratt. “Danze can offer consumers some
a unique style with a beautiful
stop and a great price. We call it low-cost luxury.”
Luxury has decidedly been a hot topic among consumers doing room
makeovers in recent years. High-rise room
faucets, over-sized pull-down faucets and pot fillers have all seen a spike in sales across the country. Homeowners at variable socio-levels are nisus for the high-end, commercial-grade kitchen.
Part of the commercial-grade act room
includes enhancing the practicality
of the space, which often means multiple faucets. It’s now common to see a primary sink/faucet, a regulator
behind the stove and a bar/convenience sink either inside
the center island or in an bay space simply off the main room.
But luxury isn’t limited to the kitchen. Bathroom renovations have seen tremendous growth inside
recent years. Whether it’s an elegant powder room or an expansive master sleeping room suite, bathroom faucets, accessories and shower systems continue to lead the way in emphasizing (or determining) a room’s personality.
As vessel lavatory sinks soar in popularity, so do their companion faucets. These wall mount faucets provide simplicity and singularity that can shortly become the focal point of any lavatory vessel sink environment.
Styling in the bathroom has besides evolved over recent years. “Transitional” styling has now complemented the traditional and contemporary style offerings. “The Danze Pitched battle
Collection is the industry’s newest introduction in transformation styling,” continues Pratt. “It uses elements of some
traditional and contemporary styling, allowing it to be at house in either environment. And, this latest collection showcases a new, beautiful stop called brushed brass.”
So what should you support in mind as you choose from the thousands of cosmetic products accessible for your room
or bath project? Here are a few helpful hints:
* Choice faucets and accessories that are inside
scale of another elements in the room. If you’re putt in an over-sized integrated room
sink, be bold with a high-rise pull-down faucet. If a large stovetop is in your plan, install a pot filler on the back wall to do filling pots or large pans easier.
* Carry the styling and stop throughout the entire room. As you choose the regulator
for your bathroom project, do sure your bath accessories are accessible in that same style and finish. It keeps the personality you brought to the room consistent (not to mention it adds beauty to even as the smallest detail -- robe hook, toilet paper holder, towel bars, etc.).
* Don’t sell yourself short in the shower. Unique showerheads and shower systems continue to grow in quality
and can besides bring a bit of customization to your bathroom. Watch for fun and absorbing nozzle styles such as spinning showerheads, ceiling mounts, large 10-inch cloudburst showerheads and stylish hand-held personal showers. Again, support the styling and stop compatible with another fixtures in the room whenever possible.
* Research a product’s quality. A pretty regulator
isn’t pretty if it leaks or doesn’t operate smoothly. Find products that offer solid brass construction, ceramic disc valves and another high-quality components that ensure a long-lasting, reliable product. You don’t want to renovate that same room next Spring!
* Compare prices. Luxury doesn’t have to mean high prices. Shop about for the styling and stop that you prefer and then compare prices with another brands that offer a similar style. Much manufacturers entering the category means the low-cost luxury mentality wish bring much value to consumers.
The choices you have accessible to you for that next house remodeling project are endless. So bring out that personality, extend it into your house and enjoy it. Because no matter who you are, wherever
you move from or what personality traits you possess, we all want the same outcome at the end of this process -- a beautiful room with great styling and design.
