We went to the Kohler showroom in Burlington (1150 Corporate Drive) on Saturday and did more research since we like the clean designs. It was a small showroom but the lady that worked there (Jeanette) was nice and helpful. It wasn't like some of the other places we've seen... Since they don't work on commission there was no pressure.
There was a nice sink and toilet in "biscuit" which is a cream colour that looks nice with polished nickel. Jeanette mentioned that white goes best with chrome, otherwise it can be distracting. Unfortunately, she didn't have samples for the 2 vanities we liked but we had seen one previously at a showroom on Bay St in Toronto (cherry wood finish).
After pricing out all the materials, for one bathroom we were looking at between $5000 and $7000. Contractor #1 mentioned to put budget against fixtures (such as faucets) and the vanity that are viewed first. He suggested saving money on the toilet... which is not a bad idea.
The other tip that we seem to hear all the time is to not put in a tub. Jeanette reinforced that most people do not take tub baths and that especially in a condo a walk-in shower would be preferred. We are concerned with resale value and wonder what would be better?
