​Health Benefits of a Walk-In Tub

It is no secret that traditional bathtubs can be difficult to climb in and out of. Walk-in tubs, on the other hand, have a easily accessible door. This is not the only reason why seniors gravitate toward walk-in tubs. There are many health benefits associated with walk-in tubs.

Improve Heart Health
Some aging in place customers cannot exercise due to mobility issues. However, a walk-in tub can help you get the cardio you need. It can lower your blood pressure and puts less strain on the heart.

Less Stress
Do you feel overwhelmed by the stress in your life? If so, a walk-in tub can help you stress less! Taking a long warm bath at the end of a tiring day can reduce your stress level.

Helps You Get A Good Night's Sleep
Getting a good night's sleep is vital to your overall health. However, failing asleep is easier said than done. If you can relate, a walk-in tub can get you sleep soundly. Taking a warm bath an hour before bed can put you in a relaxed state.

Are you ready to make the switch from a traditional bathtub to a walk-in tub? If so, turn to the professionals at Re-Bath of Richmond for an installation. Our factory certified installers are friendly and knowledgeable about walk-in tubs. Call 801-591-1621 today to schedule a free in-home consultation.

How To Design A Stylish and Functional Bathroom

You've finally made the decision to remodel your bathroom! That is great news. Once you've established a realistic budget, it's time to start designing the bathroom you've always wanted. For some, this can be an overwhelming experience. Below are some tips on how to create a stylish and functional bathroom.

De-Clutter
Spring is the perfect time of year to de-clutter. If you are planning a remodel, all the more reason to consolidate. It will also give your bathroom a minimalist look.

Choose A Theme
What look are you going for in your new bathroom--modern, elegant or classic? If you are unsure of what best suits your taste, our design consultants at Re-Bath of Richmond can help you decide. Once you've settled on a design, it is important to stick to that aesthetic.

Incorporate Your Personality with Artwork
Painting the walls a calming, neutral color can set the tone of the room. Adding wall art is a way to incorporate your personality and style. It will also act as the focal point of the room.

Utilize Wall Space
The walls in your bathroom should not only be adorned with artwork. Your wall space should be utilized to its full potential. Hanging hooks, towel racks and shelves can greatly increase the functionality of your bathroom.

No matter your reason for remodeling your bathroom, we are here to help. Call 804-591-1621 to speak with our design consultants about your bathroom remodeling needs.

Tips For An Eco-Friendly Bathroom Remodel

Today is Earth Day! It is important to look at different ways to incorporate the "go green" movement into your home. This is especially true for the bathroom. Below are some tips for designing the eco-friendly bathroom of your dreams.

Go With The (Low) Flow
Do you have a toilet in your bathroom that was installed prior to 1992? If so, your toilet is wasting gallons of water per flush. To conserve water, consider our low flow toilets. Your faucets can also conserve water by having an aerator installed.

Lighting The Way
Lighting is usually an afterthought of bathroom remodeling. However, the right lighting can help set the ambiance of your bathroom. Looking for an energy efficient option? Choose LED lights. They are Energy Star certified and use much less energy than traditional light bulbs.

Use Recycled Materials
Reduce, reuse and recycle has become the catch phrase of the sustainability movement. You can incorporate this into your bathroom remodeling project by re-purposing recycled materials. Counter tops and cabinetry can be fashioned from other materials.

Is an eco-friendly bathroom remodeling project on the horizon? Turn to Re-Bath of Richmond for all your bathroom remodeling needs. Call 804-591-1621 today to request a free in-home consultation.

How To Make Your Bathroom Feel Like A Spa

Do you wish that you could go to the spa everyday? With a new bathroom from Re-Bath of Richmond, you can! Below are some tips that will help you transform your bland bathroom into your own personal oasis.

Paint The Walls An Earth Tone
No need to paint the town red! Instead, paint your bathroom walls an earth tone color. Some common earth tone colors include beige, brown, light gray and pale green. This will help set a relaxing atmosphere in your bathroom.

Dim The Lights
The right lighting can make or break your bathroom. A dimmer switch allows you to control the lighting. Dimming the lights can soften the lighting. This can also allow you to feel like you're at a spa.

The Perfect Bathtub
What is more relaxing than a warm bath? Nothing! Having a tub installed by Re-Bath of Richmond can help you create the spa-like bathroom of your dreams. We carry walk-in tubs with air and water jets.

If your bathroom does not give off that spa-like ambiance, it's time for a remodel. Turn to the pros at Re-Bath of Richmond for all of your bathroom remodeling needs. Re-Bath of Richmond is the Richmond area's headquarters for bathroom remodeling. Call 804-591-1621 today and you'll be one step closer to the bathroom you've always wanted.

Tips for Cleaning Your Bathroom

Spring has officially sprung! This is the time of year when homeowners scramble to clean their home from top to bottom. When it comes to your spring cleaning list, we can help make your bathroom sparkle and shine. Below are some tips for cleaning your bathroom.

Everything But The Bathroom Sink
Unsure of how to clean your sink? Steer clear of cleaners that contain toxic chemicals. Instead, cut a lemon in half and scrub it onto the sink. It will help remove hard water stains.

April Showers
Next, it's time to tackle the shower. Did you know that you can use vinegar to get your shower squeaky clean? Just soak a paper towel in vinegar and rub it on your shower doors.

The Porcelain Throne
Is your porcelain throne not looking so porcelain these days? If so, you're not alone. Luckily, there is a quick fix for this. Leave a denture tablet in the toilet overnight and viola!

If you are not pleased with the design or layout of your bathroom, it's time for a remodel.  Turn to Re-Bath of Richmond for all your bathroom remodeling needs. Our DuraBath SSP material is non-porous, which makes it easy to clean. Best of all, it protects against mold and mildew growth. Call 804-591-1621 to schedule a free in-home consultation.
