A client asked if we could fix ice-cold bathroom floors without taking up any space. We did — under the tile.
– Schluter Ditra-Heat uncoupling membrane, electric heating cable run across the whole floor
– A self-leveling coat over it, plus a smart thermostat you can schedule — the floor’s warm before you’re up
– Full wall waterproofing over cement board, seams and corners sealed, with a built-in shower niche
Once it’s tiled you can’t see any of it — but you feel it every morning. The finish: blue marble-look porcelain across walls and floor, a walk-in glass shower, a freestanding tub, and a double white shaker vanity with gold hardware.
Materials used: Schluter Ditra-Heat radiant heat (heating cable + smart thermostat) / Benjamin Moore Aura Bath & Spa anti-steam ceiling paint / KOHLER custom shaker vanity / Hardwood Reflections butcher-block countertop / blue marble-look large-format porcelain / custom recessed shower niche.
