Check out how this bathroom goes from monotone to magnificent.

Save My Bath : Episode HSMBA-311 -- More Projects »
Homeowners George and Kristen live in an older home filled with tons of personality and charm. Except the bathroom––it is boring and bland. It doesn’t even have the decency to be ugly.

Not only is this bathroom is as dull as dishwater, it has some functionality problems too. The detached showerhead leaks terribly. The knob that switches the faucet from the tub to the shower is broken; the homeowners have to use pliers to get it to work. The toilet is very low. It is the perfect height for a 4-year-old, but the adults have a hard time getting on and off the toilet without hurting their back or knees.
