Americans are remodeling like never before, and one of the rooms most frequently remodeled is the bathroom. Remodeling provides multiple benefits from increasing the value of your home to providing you and your family with years of enjoyment. Now even master suites are being transformed into private sanctuaries, and decorative concrete has become the material of choice.
"Concrete is the only material that allows you to customize just about every aspect of it, including color, shape, thickness and texture," explains Jeff Girard of The Concrete Countertop Institute in Raleigh, NC. Many homeowners and designers are finding that concrete sinks and vanities are a perfect fit for achieving a distinctive-looking bathroom creating any type of sink imaginable including above-the-counter vessel sinks, pedestal sinks and bowl sinks. More and more architectural concrete companies are offering their own sink lines. You can view images in The Concrete Network’s photo gallery of concrete sinks and vanities.
Concrete is also a great choice for tub and shower surrounds because it can be poured to fill any form creating perfect angular lines or soft curves. There are a range of colors to choose from to complement your fixtures, faucets, walls and rugs, and the possibilities are endless.
