Our third bathCRATE project is underway, and this time, we’re transforming two bathrooms and a laundry room! What’s special about this job? Well, we get to use some amazing materials and finishes, including a new custom built-in vanity and laundry room cabinets. It’s always fun to work with high-end materials and methods, and we can’t wait to share the results with you in just a few weeks!
