A Cautionary Tale For Do-It-Yourself Remodelers

Post Remodeling - Maple Glen BathroomIn late 2011, Post Remodeling tackled a bathroom remodeling project in Maple Glen. After beginning the project themselves, the homeowners contacted us to help finish the project. After a few installation headaches involving some of the already-ordered materials, the job was completed.

Recently, the homeowners had more issues with some of the custom-ordered items – in particular, the vanity top and sink. From here, Post spearheaded the project, returning the defective pieces and using our expert fabricator to custom make both parts which were installed seamlessly.

At long last, our customers in Maple Glen have the bathroom they always knew was possible. “Everything is is perfect, just like our master bathroom you did a few years ago. You do such good work, Rob, and we’re real happy with it. Thanks again,” they recently commented.

Bathroom Updates – Pre-Planning is Key

A repeat client in Maple Glen, satisfied with a previous project from Post Remodeling & Handyman Services, was interested in remodeling a powder room in their home. The homeowners ordered all the materials they thought were needed and asked Post Remodeling to review the cabinet dimensions. The room itself was small and the layout was not changing.

The vanity ordered by the homeowner from Home Depot was damaged in transit. After a month, the replacement arrived. After arriving to begin the project, Post Remodeling found the following:

  • Vanity was missing the “toe kick”.
  • New medicine cabinet had a chipped mirror door.
  • Vanity top was sized incorrectly and not usable.
  • No padding ordered for cork floor.
  • No new receptacles or switches provided.

Post Remodeling was able to correct each of the problematic areas. Post provided or fabricated all missing components.

In addition to the extra work required to correct the situation, some prior professional planning and product selection would have yielded a roomier, more functional powder room.

In many cases, Post Remodeling is involved with the overall planning and materials specifications. From previous experience, bathroom and kitchen remodeling projects are notorious for having an incredibly small margin for error and, as a result, require detailed planning in advance.

A Small Bathroom in Radnor Gets Huge Results

A newly remodeled bathroom in Radnor by Post Remodeling & Handyman ServicesA Radnor homeowner who found us via our positive reviews on Angie’s List recently purchased components to replace an old vanity/top/faucet and mirror, ancient medicine cabinet, and worn out lighting fixture.

They aimed to remove the old components, paint the walls & ceiling, and install new fixtures. While the bathroom was small, the new items selected by the homeowner in addition to a bright, fresh wall color really makes the bathroom look tremendous.

As part of the project, an old medicine cabinet was replaced with a custom-made niche which now houses a retractable mirror – a very creative use of space.
