OUR NEW EMORY & BOND VANITIES!

Bathrooms come in various shapes and sizes which can make remodeling either extremely easy or painfully difficult (depending on the space you have to work with).Having a small bathroom limits your space but shouldn’t limit your imagination.You need to have the essentials like a toilet and sink, but what about storage? Not everyone likes to have their belongings just sprawled out on the counter for everyone to see.In fact, I’d go as far as to say that nobody does.That’s because when you think of the bathroom, you think of privacy. Not to mention all that clutter everywhere totally stresses me out.

One of the most frustrating things you can encounter while planning a renovation project or even just making a repair is being unable to find the part that you need to complete the job. Especially when that part is a valve or pressure copper fitting. We've recently overhauled our Pipe Valve & Fitting (PVF) section of our website and this blog will hopefully make it easy for you to navigate.

What’s a kitchen without a perfect sink? Enter: Emory & Bond. Now let's get technical. First of all, they use the preferred type 304 stainless steel on all of their models; from their 30 inch kitchen sink to their stainless steel farmhouse sink. There's a reason why the majority of Kitchens get outfitted with Stainless steel kitchen sinks. They're low maintenance and with proper care look new for years. Emory & Bond sinks have a refined European-type brushed finish that will maintain a lustrous tone. Whether small or large stainless steel sinks, there's one for everyone.

For over 140 years, American Standard has led the way in developing innovative bathroom and kitchen products. They have provided innovations in both design and concepts during this time but it has also led to many models and finishes being discontinued as they have been replaced with new finishes and models.

Isn’t it horrible when you go to step into the shower and get hit with freezing water? Recirculation pumps are the answer to waiting for the hot water to arrive where you need it, and can also provide energy efficient heating for your home. These excellent quality pumps from Granite are economical, easy to install, low-maintenance and they save valuable resources, too!

Kohler has had a long history of providing quality products for both the kitchen and bathroom since they were founded in 1873. This has however led to a long list of finishes that are no longer produced. If you are trying to find a piece in a discontinued finish, or you're tracking down an old favorite, please check out the spreadsheet below. We have a long list of Kohler products that are in discontinued finishes and you can find them below at discounted prices.

Everybody loves the feeling of a nice hot shower, especially on a cold morning. It’s what really gets me up in the morning. I know I hate when I jump the gun and the water’s not hot yet, even after running for like, over a minute. The struggle is real.

So what’s the deal with Green Mountain Boilers ?

I’m often asked my opinion on Boilers. Once we get past the initial questions of boiler type, fuel type, BTU Input, and efficiency, It’s time to pick a brand. More often than not lately I find myself recommending Green Mountain boilers over Weil-McLain, Williamson, and Burnham.

We’ve all ooh’d and ahh’d over gorgeous pristine bathroom pictures in blogs and magazines. Freshly laundered towels folded into bouquets of fresh flowers and carefully curated countertop accessories… There’s not a toothbrush or stick of deodorant in sight. I don’t know about you but every time I read Better Homes and Gardens or Architectural Digest, or check out ny.curbed, I always wonder: do people actually live like that?

Psst: Want in on a little secret? It’s all about the Medicine Cabinet.

Water heaters are one of the most important household appliances. However, when it comes to buying a new water heater for your home, it’s best to listen to that dude guarding the Holy Grail at the end of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.
