At Nez Custom Cabinets, we specialize in creating customized solutions that balance aesthetics and efficiency. Whether you’re updating a powder room or transforming a master bath, here are five essential tips to guide your remodel:

1. Think Beyond Layout: Door and Fixture Placement Matter

Before choosing tiles or paint colors, consider the overall layout—especially the position of your door and toilet. You’ll want your bathroom to feel open and intentional. Avoid placing the toilet directly in sight from the door if possible, and make sure there's enough space to move around freely.

Pro Tip: Custom vanities and storage solutions can help maximize space without compromising design.

2. Set a Realistic Timeline

A successful remodel is all about planning. Work with your contractor or design team to determine a timeline that accounts for product ordering, demolition, installation, and any potential delays. Rushing the process can lead to costly mistakes.

3. Get Inspired—and Stay Inspired

Look everywhere for ideas: interior design magazines, Pinterest, hotels you love, and of course, our project portfolio at Nez Custom Cabinets. Use your favorite spaces as inspiration to define your own unique style and color palette.

4. Establish a Budget (and Stick to It)

Bathroom remodels can vary widely in cost. Before you begin, decide how much you’re willing to invest, including a contingency for unexpected costs. Prioritize where you want to splurge—like on a custom vanity or statement lighting—and where you’re comfortable saving.

5. Choose the Right Team

You don’t need to navigate a remodel alone. Work with experienced professionals who understand both functionality and design. At Nez Custom Cabinets, we offer tailored cabinetry and storage solutions that make your bathroom both beautiful and practical.

Bonus Tip: Think Long-Term Value

Beyond daily comfort, a bathroom remodel is a smart investment. Upgrades like custom cabinetry, high-quality finishes, and elegant lighting can significantly boost your home’s resale value.
