Apple Valley Bathroom Remodel: A Stunning Transformation

At Country Creek Builders, we love bringing dream spaces to life, and this bathroom remodel in Apple Valley is a perfect example of how thoughtful design can completely transform a home.

Our clients had three major concerns with their existing space:

• A cramped, outdated shower: Their previous neo-angle shower was so small it barely fit one person.
• Lack of storage and closet space: The small bedroom closets made the room feel even more cramped.
• No walk-in closet: They dreamed of a more functional space with ample storage.

Our Design & Build Process

Before beginning any project, we take precise measurements of the existing space and develop a detailed proposed plan. Using 3D renderings, we show homeowners exactly how their space will look before any work begins—eliminating surprises and allowing for adjustments early in the process.

For this project, we worked closely with the homeowners, making tweaks along the way to ensure their new suite would be both beautiful and functional.

The Remodel: From Cramped to Luxurious

1. Expanding the Shower for a Spa-Like Feel

One of the biggest challenges in this remodel was the tiny, outdated shower. Our solution?

• We removed the old neo-angle shower and expanded the space.
• A built-in bench and custom niches were added for extra convenience.
• To widen the shower, we extended the wall and finished it with a solid surface countertop that matches the vanity—an elegant, seamless look we incorporate in all our remodels.

2. Walk-In Closet & Storage Solutions

Closet space was another major issue for the homeowners. The original bedroom closets were too small, and they didn’t have a walk-in closet.

• We reconfigured the layout by extending the closet into an underutilized office space.
• A custom closet organization system was installed to maximize storage and functionality.

Now, they have a spacious walk-in closet that makes organization effortless!

3. Upgrading the Vanity & Lighting

Another complaint was the lack of counter space and poor lighting.

• We replaced their old vanities with a custom inset cabinet vanity that offers a sleek, furniture-quality look.
• A tower cabinet was installed to add even more storage, with built-in outlets to keep countertops clutter-free.
• We incorporated layered lighting to eliminate dark, shadowy spots. The final design includes:
  • Sconce lights above the freestanding tub
  • Lighted mirrors for additional brightness
  • Recessed lighting throughout the space for a well-lit, luxurious atmosphere

4. Modernizing the Bathtub Area

The homeowners had a large, outdated drop-in tub that took up too much space. We replaced it with a freestanding soaking tub—a stylish, modern choice that instantly elevates the room.

To enhance both functionality and aesthetics, we also tiled the walls around the tub, making it easier to clean while adding a sleek, contemporary touch.

Attention to Detail: The Pocket Door Upgrade

Many homeowners dislike pocket doors because standard builder-grade frames tend to be flimsy. At Country Creek Builders, we use high-quality pocket door frames to ensure smooth operation and durability. This custom solid wood pocket door eliminates the need for a swinging door, saving valuable space in the bathroom.

Final Thoughts: The Importance of Great Design

This bathroom remodel is a testament to the power of thoughtful design and expert craftsmanship. At Country Creek Builders, we always emphasize detailed planning and high-quality execution to avoid surprises and ensure our clients love their finished space.
