Bathroom Remodel by Norkus Remodeling in Northwest Chicago Suburbs

Hi, I’m Remi from Norkus Remodeling! Today, I’m excited to share a recent bathroom remodel we completed in the northwest Chicago suburbs. While this project was on the smaller side, the impact was huge. By focusing on timeless, modern updates like a new vanity, fresh tile, and updated fixtures, we turned this bathroom into a stylish, functional space that adds real value to the home. Let’s dive into the details of how a few targeted upgrades can make all the difference!


Project Goals: A Fresh, Modern Update with a Timeless Feel

Our clients wanted a bathroom that felt updated but would still look great years down the line. We focused on installing a few key elements:

  • Modern Vanity: We chose a timeless wood vanity with a sleek granite countertop, complemented by golden handles and a matching faucet. The combination of wood and metal accents adds a warm, elegant feel to the space.

  • New Toilet: A brand-new, water-efficient toilet brought both functionality and an updated look to the room.

  • Floor and Wall Tiles: We installed modern floor and wall tiles that pulled the whole design together. Tile can completely change the feel of a bathroom, and it’s an essential upgrade for a polished look.

  • Fresh Paint: Finally, we gave the walls and ceiling a fresh coat of paint, which made the room feel larger, brighter, and more inviting.




Preparation: Laying the Foundation for Success

Before we jumped in with the new fixtures and finishes, we took time to prepare the space carefully. It’s all about getting the details right from the start. For instance, removing the old vanity and toilet and ensuring we had a clean slate allowed us to start the installation with precision.

Our prep process includes careful measuring, selecting materials that fit the style and layout, and even planning out details like where the lighting will cast shadows.

We love showing “before” photos at this stage, so clients can see just how far their bathroom has come!



Why These Changes Add Value to Your Home

When people think about adding value to their homes, kitchens usually come to mind first. But a beautifully remodeled bathroom can be just as powerful in boosting resale value and appeal. Here’s why:

  • Modern Bathrooms are Highly Sought After: Buyers love a bathroom that feels updated and stylish. Installing a timeless vanity with quality materials like granite and wood adds a touch of luxury that won’t go out of style.

  • Durability Matters: From water-efficient toilets to sturdy tile, using durable materials ensures that this investment will last for years. This is especially appealing to potential buyers who want to avoid immediate repairs or upgrades.

  • Visual Impact: The right tile, fixtures, and even paint can transform a small bathroom. This project shows that even minor upgrades can create a bathroom that feels fresh, welcoming, and truly livable.


A Bathroom with Style and Substance

In the end, this bathroom went from “dated” to “timeless modern” with just a few key updates. The fresh vanity, matching golden accents, and modern tile work gave the space a clean, cohesive look that feels high-end without being overly trendy.
