When I first met the man that is the magic behind KRB Construction and Renovation, I had an ugly 1970s era bathtub and flooring. No amount of cleaning made this tub sparkle!

When we undertook the renovation I was a bit overwhelmed by the number of options out there.

I asked myself: what size and colour of tile was best suited for the space, could I do a custom design in the tub surround?, what about heated floors or a back splash for the sink area?

In the end I made thoughtful and informed selections and it was truly thrilling to see my vision come to life!

I also learned how to tile and how important it is to work from an even surface.

The signature piece for the tub surround was jointly designed by Andrew and I and my sink backsplash turned out looking great!

I encourage you to consider the luxury of the heated tile floor as an add on for your renovation.

Andrew can tell you more but there is both an electrical and a hot water option. Hot water is a great choice upstairs if you want to have a very quiet lower level. The heated flooring is encased in concrete making for a maximum sound barrier.

If you start planning your renovations and words like “aqua board” and “schluter with redgard liquid membrane” got your head spinning, fear not a professional contractor like Andrew at KRB can help you navigate the lingo and choose the best materials for your install. He guarantees tile that will make you smile!

And don’t forget the most important (and rewarding part) …. take lots of before and after photos. Sometimes you can forget how unappealing that space once looked!
