Wet Rooms Trending

3/30/2018

0 Comments

 
Have you heard about the new concept of making one of your bathrooms a wet room?  It consists of a room where everything can get wet without being damaged even the cabinetry, floors, walls, mirrors, etc.  All materials used in construction are water resistant.  The floor would be sloped toward a central floor drain.

Be Very Deliberate When Planning Your Bathroom

9/28/2017

Picture
There are many choices to consider when planning a bathroom.  You would be wise to hire a professional.  Collect images to share with your designer.  The above bathroom was designed by Candice Olson.  

Points to consider as listed by Real Homes:
  • Do you want a combination tub and shower or to separate the two?
  • Will one or two people be showering at the same time, and how big a space, shower heads and valves are needed?
  • Do you need a seat in the shower?
  • Are you planning to have a hand shower?
  • Where will you place your bath products?
  • Is one sink sufficient?
  • Are you planning for storage in the bathroom?
  • Do you want the WC in its own dedicated space?
  • Where will you place the sockets to power your razor and electric toothbrush?
  • How about the laundry basket?
  • Do you want heated floors?
  • Are you a techie and want the new bathroom gadgets like mirrors that can also be changed to a tv screen, a remote controlled commode, etc.?
  • How do I find a reputable plumber?


Let Dreamland Interiors help you with this important project design to achieve your desired look.

Bathroom Safety - An Important Issue to Consider

7/20/2017

0 Comments

 
According to the U.S. Home Safety Council, more accidents happen in the bathroom than any other room in the house due to the storage of medications and the presence of water sources, electrical outlets and electrical appliances.

It is common sense to safely store supplies, have adults supervise children around water, and clean up slippery surfaces to reduce the chance of injuries.  But in addition, consider the following checklist to insure everyone's safety.

Bathroom safety checklist:
1.  Keep water heater set at 120 degrees or less to prevent scalding.
2.  Check that electrical outlets are grounded (GFCI).
3.  Equip showers and tubs with non-skid suction cup mats or textured strips.
4.  Use bar soap in tub, not slippery liquid soap.
5.  Have a phone near the bathroom in case of emergencies.
6.  Have a night light in the bathroom.
7. Install grab bars in the tub.  The grab bars come in decorative designs now.  Follow codes for installation which include the requirement of installing the bar 33-36 inches from the floor.
8.  Check out www.safekids.org website for additional tips.

High Tech Bathroom Gadgets

7/16/2017

0 Comments

 
They are always coming out with new tech devices for the home.  Let's concentrate on the new bathroom devices today.  

If you enjoy your morning news, podcast, or music with your shower, consider purchasing a bluetooth showerhead speaker.  

If you are on a quest to improve your physique and health, you may want to purchase a smart bathroom scale that tracks your weight, BMI, and body fat percentage.  You can than access the information with your phone or computer and/or input the information into your FitBit.  

We have heard of towel heating racks, but now they have warming drawers in various sizes for your drying comfort.  

Another new device is the LED shower drain cover that changes color according to the amount of water used during your shower.  The controls for the cover can be adjusted to the length of shower you plan to take based on your desired water consumption.  Great device for conservationist.

​Perhaps the most common new, innovative device is the touch-free faucet that makes it possible for you to clean up without spreading a mess or spreading germs.

​There is no end to man's ingenuity and I am sure there will be more gadgets to appear on the market in the near future.

Seven Cleaning Tricks for the Bathroom

5/28/2017

0 Comments

 
Picture
I was watching a video on how to attack the hard to clean areas in the bathroom.  The utube video showed a super-duper way to get the toilet bowls, top and bottom, sparkling clean with white vinegar. Black tea was used to clean mirrors and glass. Fixtures were cleaned with a lemon.  The toilet brush and toothbrush holders and soap dish were also tackled.  I even observed a new way to vacuum the dryer lint trap.  Visit this Site.

DIY Potty Pods

5/27/2017

0 Comments

 
Picture
Save yourself some money and have a sparkling clean toilet bowl by making your own potty pods.  Ingredients needed are 1 cup of baking soda, 1/4 cup powdered citric acid, and 1 tablespoon plus dish soap, preferably Dawn.  After mixing these ingredients into a dough like consistency, press into a silicon ice cube tray (small size cubes).  Freeze tray for 30 minutes.  Remove pods to a jar and place in the bathroom to be used with flushes.  I think I would use every third or fourth flush, but they can be used with every flush. You will still have to use your toilet brush to periodically clean under the rim. Watch this video to learn the specific process to accomplish this project. #dreamlandinteriors
