Belles Construction paired our superior tile workmanship with our passion for unique design to create a one-of-a-kind gorgeous bathroom remodel for our Melrose Park clients. Our clients had a plumbing leak and used the opportunity to invest in a full hall bathroom remodel; overflowing with classy individual touches and character. We started with 6x6 inch tiles for the shower and walls and 18x18 inch tiles for the floor. These tiles have a light tan color with milky swirls. This color is a fantastic base behind the eye-catching 1x1 inch trim mosaic tiles of a wide range of medium to deep browns, honey and slate gray. This color pallet and organic texture of the tiles achieves a warm and welcoming Tuscan atmosphere. We replaced a dome light with five recessed lights to further envelope our clients in warmth and comfort in their new bathroom. Belles Construction added value to the existing space by repurposing previously unused space between the bathtub and wall with a custom built bench topped with a custom piece of granite. The bench hides unsightly plumbing, offers functional space for relaxing and decorative finishes and is an interesting place for the bathtub valves. The same high quality granite is used for the sink countertop and a corner shelf in the bath. Similarly, we repeated the 1x1 inch mosaic tiles in the vanity backsplash and transition between the hallway and bathroom floors. Using both the mosaic tiles and granite materials in three separate places creates a clean, unified finished design despite the variety of colors, shapes and textures. The highlight of the individuality of this Cheltenham bathroom remodel is a shower wall pocket shelf. The mosaic trim pattern runs through the center of the recessed shelf and continues along the wall. This enhances the depth of the shelf and emphasizes the thoughtful tile workmanship and design. At the center of the mosaic trim is one painted tile of a small white and brown bird against a blue water backdrop and orange pebbles. The accent colors and art are a beautiful focal point on along the back wall. Both this painted tile and the clever placement of the shower valves packs a punch of character in the newly remodeled bathroom. Our clients are not only enjoying the comfort of their refreshed space but looking forward to showing off all the design points to their visitors as the most interesting room in their home.

Belles construction increased the comfort, usability and design of our clients' master bathroom during this bathroom remodel in Willow Grove. We removed the shower stall and expanded the room. This provided space to install a full sized bathtub with crisp white large tiles. The bathing space is larger and well equipped with two corner shelves and a luxurious dual shower head system. We removed the dated sink and vanity and installed a floating vanity with a larger modern style sink. Above the sink we designed and installed a custom stone backsplash, fitting and placing each stone one at a time. This focal point in the design is both interesting and works well with the muted organic pattern of the bath and floor tiles. Opting for a floating vanity allows for the tiles to run wall-to-wall. This effect works with the simple color scheme, bright paint and larger format tiles to create an open and airy atmosphere that makes the most of the space. Our clients were very pleased with their new master bathroom and impressed by the amount of room and openness gained from this expansion and design.

Belles construction completely modernized and upgraded the usability of our client's hallway bathroom in this Elkins Park bathroom remodel. We removed the existing outdated style bathtub and vanity. We built a shower stall with cool color tiles and added an accent strip of rectangular interlocking glass tiles. Repeating this pattern in the far wall of the shower niche ties the design together and adds an interesting focal point against the subdued modern colors and shapes of the shower walls and large format tile flooring. The shower bench, recessed lighting and dual shower head and hand shower system pack tons of comfort into our client's showing experience. We added a double sink and double mirror vanity. This makes the hallway bathroom more practical for the whole family and adds more than necessary storage space. The vanity is topped with gorgeous white marble that looks clean and sleek against the darker gray floor tiles.

Belles Construction dramatically upgraded the comfort, usability and value of this single family home in Jenkintown, Pennsylvania by reworking the existing master bedroom floor plan to into a master suite. Our clients relocated to the area from a different state. We worked closely together on the design to infuse their style and taste into their recent real estate purchase and make it feel like home. The relaxing elements are the kidney shaped free standing tub and shower stall with all of the creature comforts: tiled shower niches, dual rain shower head system, stainless steel glass sliding shower doors and shower grab bars. The chandelier above the tub, LED vanity mirror and tile design work add just the right touch of glamour. We made the best use of the available space with the arrangement of shower, free standing tub and vanity in the master bath and opted for a sliding shower door and sliding barnyard door to maintain privacy without wasted space. We added frost glass windows in the far wall and in the barnyard door and positioned the freestanding tub and chandelier visible through the length of the suite to offer our clients the best natural light and visual design the room could offer. Aside from creating a beautiful master suite, Belles Construction reworked the existing layout of the hallway bathroom to provide easier access for all family members. Throughout the full job, we enjoyed collaborating with our clients and were thankful for the lunches and fresh farm fruit they were kind enough to share with us! Please reach out to Belles Construction for a free estimate on how we can integrate any of these elements into your next bathroom renovation.
