Bathroom Remodeling in Northern Virginia and Montgomery County, Maryland
by Summit Design Remodeling
Serving Metro DC: Northern Virginia & Suburban Maryland
Remember when a home had but one bathroom? Those days are long gone. Today, many of us have more bathrooms in our homes than bedrooms or people. Bathrooms take on many forms:
- Master bath with a tub, shower, dual sink vanities
- Secondary baths typically with a tub, toilet, and vanity
- Powder rooms with a sink and toilet
There are no cookie-cutter solutions for bathroom remodels. Talking to a Summit design consultant is critical when considering these bathroom options, Like kitchens, there are many reasons to undertake a bathroom remodel including:
- The existing bathroom may have outlived it usefulness. Like a kitchen, real estate professionals say the useful life of a bathroom is 10 to 12 years.
- The family may have outgrown the capacity of the bathroom.
- It may just be time to give your bathroom a fresh look.
Summit Design Remodeling knows there are many levels of bathroom remodeling including:
- Refresh your existing bathroom. This can be accomplished by installing new vanities and vanity tops, tile, lighting, mirrors, and/or fixtures.
- Renew. Start over with a clean slate in the existing space.
- Expand. Expand the existing bathroom by adding onto your existing house or expanding into an adjacent room.

Many times remodeling a master bathroom within the confines of the existing space does not allow for modern features such as over sized tubs, separate showers, double sink vanities, a separate toilet area, linen cabinets/closets, etc. Often times, expanding the master bathroom can entail an expansion of the master suite, including the bedroom and closet.
