Goodbye bulky, hard-to-clean garden tubs. Hello sleek, beautiful freestanding baths! Freestanding bathtubs are the perfect way to give your bathroom oasis a modern touch. You're sure to relax when your bathroom is both stylish and easier to care for.

2. Open-concept showers

For small bathroom spaces, open-concept showers provide a great way to make the space appear both larger and stylish. Finish out the look with a rain fall shower head or massaging jets.

3. Heated Floors & Towel Racks

There's no reason to torture yourself immediately after a long, relaxing bath or shower by stepping out on a cold tile floor and grabbing  a towel to wrap up in as quickly as possible. Keep the relaxation going by installing heated floors and towel racks. 

4. Mirror Defogger

Save time when you need to get ready after a long shower by installing a mirror with a built-in defogger. Gone are the days of wiping off your mirror and leaving streaks behind!
