MODERN BUILDS

Hi, My name is Mike Montgomery and I'm a MAKER; a designer, builder, and full-time content creator. Accessibility is my focus with Modern Builds, not simply accessibility of designs, but accessibility in materials, information, and projects themselves. I've focused on creating furniture and DIY projects that are simple enough that any beginner maker can accomplish, yet interesting enough that any expert might be inspired. Building and making is becoming less and less of an exclusive hobby and profession. My goal is to reduce that separation even further.

  • 15:19 i think more important than a USB port in an outlet in the bathroom is a GFCI outlet for safety around water.
  • @joylesstiger
    I suggest synthetic baseboard trim. Water on the floor is inevitable.
  • @ModernBuilds
    Super excited to be sharing full room renovation episodes on this income property!!! It's been a lot of work to get here, but we've got lot more videos like this planned so stay tuned!!!

    Great job! Kitchens and bathrooms sell homes. Double vanity was the way to go. Really love the mirror. That’s a perfect high end piece. Happy you didn’t go all out on the bath tub fixtures. Those are nice, but people need to be reminded to match the price point of the home they’re selling.
  • Everything looks good enough to sell, but not for long term 6+ months living. I am landlord and I did the whole tub paint, designer glass thing bc I cheaper out. It does not last. Particle board furniture in a restroom will not last. After doing one restroom reno for 1000 grand and less, I end up spending 10k getting the titles for the floor, real tub replacement, and metal+wood furniture. This restroom is for staging and not for living. Storage is everything and in a restroom? More drawers and larger medicine cabinet is better.
  • @DiRidpath
    Man, I love that mirror! I love everything except the shelves over the toilet. Everything looks high-end except those chintzy shelves.
  • @valerieking5265
    I prefer showers to have a hose attachment instead of one shower head. The hose attachment is great when cleaning the walls / tub as well as rinsing the soap out of our naughty bits. :face-green-smiling:
  • @lechatbotte.
    I used the plastic resin type moulding in my bathroom. Unless you’re up close nosey you can’t tell and it will never soak up water if there is a leak. I think this is my favorite part of the reno so far.
  • @GingerGirl315
    It looks nice, but I think it's too small of a bathroom to have a 2-sink vanity. I would have opted for more counter space and one sink.
  • @kellilangvo
    You smoothed all the walls then added texture….no! It’s so much more high end to just smooth out the skim coat….people pay big money to skim coat over orange peel texture……
  • It's looking so good. LOVE the tip about how to smooth out caulk without having a mess all over you fingers. I love the finished edge caulk can give, but never love having to stop over and over to wipe off my fingers.
  • @PotatosPotatoes
    GFCI!!!!!! That outlet you installed is less than 3 feet from the faucet. Therefore, it MUST be GFCI protected!!
  • @justinmilla
    Harney is the go to for door knobs and accessories. High quality and best price. I did two houses with everything Harney.
  • I like the attention to detail especially in the USBA/USBC port on the wall, but the faucets that you got for the sink have a major design flaw most faucets do, it crowds your hands at the top of the sink and doesn't let you use the full bowl of the sink, it's a pet peeve of mine but I hate having a gigantic sink and a little 3x3 square where my water will hit my hands
  • For future reference, in a bathroom the drywall you would want to install is greenboard (moisture resistant), or purpleboard (moisture and mold resistant).
  • Depending where the house is, you may have gotten more than 10K in equity. Bathroom remodels are one of the highest ROIs when selling a house. You did a fantastic job, and who ever buys this will be stoked about it. Other thoughts regarding the build: - Thanks for showing the texture sprayer! I didn't know about those, and am excited about their potential. - Matte black fixtures would have been a more modern look with the white paint and the natural wood tone of the vanity. Nickel finishes are an early 2000s style. - Why did you use a roller for the bathtub refinish kit instead of the airless sprayer we saw in earlier shots? Would have reduced the risk of seeing roller lines. - Gray vinyl planking is not modern, and is already on its way out. Why not use choose a brighter natural wood tone like the vanity?

    Rocker switch for the light switch with the same faceplate as the outlet. As far as door handles, levers are more useful if you have your hands full. No single to double sink install clips?
