Alexa, play “Time After Time.”

2016. 2018. 2019. 2020. 2021. Five years. Five home remodeling projects. Maybe it’s our quality work, their trust in our process, our competitive pricing and ability to execute, or maybe because our number was already saved in their phone… Regardless, we at HDR Remodeling like to think our client has come back to us time and time again because we’re clearly best friends.

So how did this rapport begin? Well, it all began with a kitchen (like ALL great friendships). Then, we moved to the living room, remodeled the guest bathroom and laundry room, before digging out a basement and adding a deck; all this, leading to the epic culmination of the master bathroom that you see before you. 

Now, in my humble opinion, I strongly believe that the bathroom is one of the most important rooms in a home. Hear me out! Or I suppose in this case read me out. Unless you’re Beyoncé and literally wake up like that then your very first stop in the morning is your bathroom.

Whether it’s to brush your teeth, wash your face, change or shower - chances are, this is where you begin and end your day. I’ve also been told the bathroom has “magical powers” that acts as a sort of “forcefield” for parents needing a moment to replenish and “power-up.”

Our client understood this. We converted their basement into a game room and they came to the conclusion, after watching their littles have their own space, that they too needed an oasis to escape to. Cue the master bathroom remodel! Dear best friends, it’s been a year since we’ve heard from you… Is it safe to assume you’ve replaced us with your new bathroom?

According to the Dictionary, Oasis is defined as “a pleasant or peaceful area.”

In my book, the meaning of Oasis is “wherever you find happiness.” With this in mind, it wasn’t the walk-in shower, soaking tub, or even the heated floors that made our client’s happiest (although it was definitely a contributing factor). If you take a look at this gorgeous bathroom, you’ll notice that bordering the wall of the bathtub is a design you can’t help but fall in love with.

MADE YOU LOOK! The entirety of our bathroom design was built around these custom tiles. Imported from India, every detail was handmade and every tile was hand cut by our amazing team of talented carpenters. Disclaimer: No human hand can cut through tile, we used tools! From trimming these tiles down to match the surrounding Carrara Marble tiles, to repainting the original vanity to fit the current design, and getting creative when we found a hidden structural support beam (yes, that’s as important as it sounds), our team, scratch that, our family truly outdid themselves.

In fact, I’d argue that our team outdoes themselves just as many times as we’ve worked with this amazing family - time and time again!

So my fellow reader, I’ll leave you with these last remarks:

1. Even Beyoncé herself uses the bathroom.

2. If you think a bathroom isn’t important, have you tried going without one?

3. Everyone needs a personal Oasis! Where’s yours?
