Doing construction and putting in 2 new bathrooms. One full bathroom near bedrooms and one small powder room on main floor. Trying to get a sense of what I like. I want an updated look but classic because I don't plan on redoing for many years. Trying to spend on the lower end.
Can anyone link pictures of bathrooms that would fit this that I can copy the concept. Or anyone have any input on what I'm looking for
Thanks

Hi, I just redid two bathrooms and built a third from scratch. If you want to save a lot of money, don’t buy larger tiles, they take much longer to lay, nd usually more expensive to buy. Amazon , way fair for many items, faucets, lighting, shower doors, vanities, I think I got nice things at good prices….

Thanks! Can you post links at quality products you ordered online? Specifically vanities?
Also if you're comfortable I'd love to see pictures of your finished bathrooms

I remodeled and did two bathrooms

Just google "bathrooms" - images and there are loads of bathrooms. That is what I did to start and just saved pictures that immediately "spoke" to me.

I did work with a designer and I showed her my inspiration photos and then she translated those into an actual board. She was also immensely helpful with the nitty gritty stuff of how a bathroom functions.

FWIW, bathrooms are the most expensive room you can add or renovate based on cost per square foot because everything costs a lot of money to do well and the results can be disastrous if you don't use very good tradespeople

Obviously you can economize in some ways but a very basis bathroom with a fiberglass tub - no tile work is probably $20,000. The kind of master bathroom that people upgrade to typically is probably $40,000 or $50,000 although the sky is the limit if one starts opting for the highest end finishes.

If you’re in Brooklyn, can you share the name of your designer?
