    7 Benefits of Freestanding Tubs

    Freestanding tubs offer numerous benefits that make them a desirable choice for your bathroom. Firstly, they add a touch of flair and uniqueness to the space, making it stand out. With a wide range of colors and designs available, you can find the perfect freestanding tub to complement your style. Despite taking up more room than built-in tubs, they make up for it with their advantages. They can be placed anywhere in the bathroom, providing flexibility in terms of layout and design. Freestanding tubs also create a focal point, enhancing the overall aesthetic appeal of the room. They offer a luxurious and spa-like bathing experience, allowing you to relax and unwind fully. Cleaning and maintenance are easier since you have access to the entire tub, and repairs are also simpler without having to dismantle the surrounding structure. Finally, freestanding tubs can increase the resale value of your home, making them a worthwhile investment.

    What You Should Know About Faucet Spouts Before Purchasing

    When choosing a faucet for your bathroom, the design of the spout is a crucial consideration since it's the most visible part. Avoid the disappointment of a faucet that doesn't fit your sink by carefully considering the spout measurements. Think about how you use your sink, such as washing hair or having children using it, as these factors may guide your selection. For small bathroom or single bowl kitchen sinks, a 4 to 8-inch spout reach is usually sufficient, reaching at least the middle of the bowl and centered over the drain opening. Consider the total height and the distance from the wall as well. At Kingston Brass, you can find the perfect faucet with all the relevant spout dimensions listed for easy visualization and complete your remodeling project with our wide range of sinks.

    Incorporating exposed pipes in your bathroom design

    Exposing piping in your bathroom is a trendy choice that adds vintage charm. Interior designers are incorporating console vanities and clawfoot tubs into various décor schemes, not just traditional homes. Vintage tubs with ornate metal fixtures are celebrated and retain heat efficiently. Faucet options for clawfoot tubs include deck, wall-mounted, and freestanding styles, all featuring exposed piping. Brass fixtures plated in various finishes add glistening craftsmanship. For bathroom sinks, choose a pedestal sink, console vanity, or wall-mounted sink to showcase exposed piping. Kingston Brass offers a range of console vanities with different styles and finishes. Consider incorporating other materials like freestanding towel racks to complement the exposed piping. Console vanities enhance the bathroom's look and visually open up the space.
