Room By Room Makeover’s Master Bath remodel.

Engaged by clients who were living with a Master bath that was in desperate need of storage and a better design, Teri Tolbert, designer and owner of Raleigh’s Room By Room Makeover, re-configured the bath and turned it into a luxury suite for two.   First, she moved a small shower to create much–needed space for custom cabinets, which included Kohler’s gorgeous Ladena rectangular sinks paired with modern Loure lavatory faucets.
