Choosing the Right Bathroom Designer

October 9, 2015 by Capitol Design

How to choose the right bathroom designer

Do I need a bathroom designer?

If you’re thinking about redesigning your bathroom, you’ve probably already started searching for your options online. As you’ve probably already seen, there are many options for bathroom design ranging from materials, to appliances, to fixtures and more. If you’re working full time, chances are that you won’t have the time needed to dedicate to planning everything for your bathroom redesign on your own. Finding a bathroom designer isn’t as complicated, or as pricey as it may seem. Bathroom designers are experts in remodeling and redesigning bathrooms. Better yet, finding a local bathroom designer is a great way to get expert knowledge on local prices, materials and contractors, that you just wouldn’t be able to source yourself.

What is a bathroom designer?

A bathroom designer is a professional with many years of experience in bathroom remodeling, renovation and design projects. Bathroom designers don’t only know about the design elements of a bathroom redesign project, but they can also advise you on materials and contractors to meet your budget.

Where can I find a bathroom designer?

It can be tricky to find a designer who specializes in bathroom renovation, as many home designers are generalists. Finding a real bathroom design professional can be quite a task. If you’re in the Austin area, check out Joe Currie from Capitol Design. Joe has been designing bathrooms since 1981. Joe is super friendly and knowledgable and will be able to help you redesign your bathroom in a way that reflects your unique taste and style.

Discussing your budget with your bathroom designer

Once you’ve found a bathroom designer, it’s important to be upfront and honest with him/her. For example, your new bathroom designer will want to understand your budget. Don’t be worried if you think your budget is too low. Bathroom designers are experts in meeting clients’ needs and will be able to work with you to find appropriately priced materials based on your specific budget. So, when your bathroom designer asks about your budget, be upfront and honest. Let them know your absolute maximum budget so that they can plan your bathroom redesign effectively.

Explaining your specific style to your bathroom designer

Everyone has different preferences and tastes. It’s a designer’s job to make a plan that will suit their client’s particular style and taste. Therefore, discuss your style preferences with your bathroom designer. Create a Pinterest board of your favorite images to show your designer. You can also clip your favorite magazine clippings and share these with your bathroom designer. Try to explain as clearly as possible your style preferences, as well as the styles that do not resonate with you. By having open and clear communication, you’ll be able to support your bathroom designer as he/she creates the perfect bathroom redesign for you.

Discussing materials with your bathroom designer

Now that you’ve had the discussion about your stylistic preferences and your budget with your bathroom designer, it’s time to move on to materials. Bathrooms may seem rather simple, but do require a lot of planning. Bathrooms include the obvious components such as toilets, bathtubs, showers and sinks, but they also include fixtures like shower heads and faucets. Ceilings, walls, tiles, and flooring should also be considered. And finally, a proper designer will be able to help you plan your wiring for lighting and plumbing, as well. As you can see, there really is a lot of planning that goes into bathroom design. This is one reason why having an excellent bathroom designer is so crucial to achieving the perfect bathroom on your budget.
