What’s at the Show... Bathrooms

Bathrooms are one of the most important rooms in the home when it comes to renovating and updating. Although they are often the smallest rooms in the home, they represent the place where we find solitude and sanctuary. More and more people are realizing that the home bathroom is a major part of self-care and, importantly, independence – especially for those who are aging or have mobility issues.

Desmond Wright, president of Fredericton-based company J. Wright Sales, a manufacturing sales agency of primarily plumbing brands, stresses the importance of bathroom renovation, whether you plan to stay in your home or to sell it.

“In terms of comfort, safety and water and electricity efficiency, the bathroom is a room that continually needs updating throughout the life of a home,” explains Wright. “Money invested in upgrading the bathroom is well-spent.” Be sure to stop by

the J. Wright Sales booth to view the latest in a wide array of cutting-edge plumbing products and fixtures for bathrooms and kitchens to suite any budget.

A concern for many these days is how to maintain independence and well being, allowing us to stay in our homes for as long as possible. Increasingly, people are considering the future functionality of their homes to determine the best renovations and new builds that allow for comfort as we age. Ultimate Bathroom Renovations knows this is a priority for many. With extensive experience in bathroom remodeling, there isn’t a question that owner Gerald Kelly feels he hasn’t helped to answer.

Visit the Ultimate Bathroom booth at The Real Home Show to see examples of how shower conversions, walk-in tubs, grab bars, hand showers and in-shower shelving and seats allow for individuals to stay independent, safe and comfortable while they age in their home.

Beautiful Baths’ Chris Bowie, who co-owns the company with wife Tori, has helped countless people with bathroom advice and supplies to suite their needs. One of those needs is to have a lowmaintenance bathroom. Bowie has noticed that groutless, easy-to-clean shower walls made of simulated stone or tile are the choice of many who are building or renovating their bathroom. He’s also seen an increase in homeowners wanting rain and multi-function shower heads, customizable to each bathroom, and even to each individual in the household.

At the Beautiful Bath’s booth, The Real Home Show visitors will be able to view examples of everything from simulatedstone tub wall surrounds to the latest in shower accessories, all of which will help make your bathroom not only easy to maintain, but easy on the eyes. Oh, and don’t forget to ask about Beautiful Baths free in-home consultations!

Membership. Why does it matter?

Would you allow a non-registered, uninsured financial “expert” complete control of your life savings or retirement investments?

Then why would you allow just anyone to work on your home?

Your home shelters and protects you and your family. It is quite possibly one of the largest single investments you will ever make. Don’t let just anyone in the front door.

Choose to work with professionals.

Those who make the commitment to abide by specific codes and undergo the appropriate certification and training.
