A modern bathroom renovation following water damage
This modern bathroom renovation in Gem Heights, in the Puyallup area, began after a water leak prompted a larger restoration effort. Bezruchuk Inc. updated the primary bathroom and the guest and kids bathroom, giving each room a distinct design within the same home.
The primary room pairs polished black tile with white cabinetry and warm gold accents. The guest bathroom takes a lighter approach, with a deep teal tub-and-shower wall, white side tiles and black fittings. Both use double vanities and a clear arrangement of storage, mirrors and lighting.
The finished photographs show the results of that coordinated work. For homeowners planning a similar update in Gem Heights, our Puyallup bathroom remodeling services explain the broader design and construction process.
Black porcelain, a white vanity and gold accents
Black porcelain tile with white veining gives the primary bathroom its strongest visual feature. The tile runs across the main floor and around the bathing area, while the white vanity and walls keep the room from becoming uniformly dark.
The white shaker-style double vanity has a light quartz countertop and two mirrors with rounded corners and gold frames. Faucets, cabinet pulls and vanity lights repeat the gold finish. Drawers and cabinet doors provide storage beneath the two sinks.
A freestanding tub beside the glass shower
The white soaking tub sits below two windows. A floor-mounted gold filler picks up the finish used at the vanity, while the curved tub contrasts with the straight tile joints and glass panels.
The shower has a clear glass enclosure, a recessed niche and gold accents on the glass hardware and trim. Its smaller gray floor tiles are distinct from the large black porcelain in the rest of the room. The photographs also show a tiled threshold and a square floor drain.
Watch the primary bathroom video
The original Bezruchuk Inc. video provides another view of the black-and-white primary bathroom, its gold details and the relationship between the vanity, tub and shower.
Deep teal tile gives the guest bath its own character
The guest and kids bathroom uses a bathtub-and-shower combination with a deep teal feature wall. The glossy rectangular tiles bring color into the room, while white subway tiles on the side walls keep the surrounding surfaces light.
The original project record identifies the feature tile as Daltile LuxeCraft Deep Teal 3 × 12-inch ceramic wall tile. Black shower fittings, a black curtain rod and matching vanity hardware tie the bathing area to the rest of the room.
White cabinetry with a warmer floor
A white double vanity provides two sinks and storage below. Black faucets and cabinet pulls give it a different finish from the primary vanity. Two mirrors and overhead lighting keep the sink area straightforward.
The brown wood-look plank flooring adds a warmer tone beside the white cabinetry and teal wall. Together, those surfaces create a different mood from the primary bathroom while keeping the same emphasis on clear lines and useful storage.
Two palettes, coordinated details
The bathrooms share white vanities and carefully repeated hardware finishes. Their tile choices do most of the work in setting them apart: large black porcelain in the primary room and a teal ceramic feature wall in the guest bath.

Planning repairs and improvements together
When damage starts a renovation, the repair requirements and the desired improvements need to be considered together. That discussion can include the condition of the room, the fixtures worth keeping, any layout changes and the finishes for the rebuilt space.
Our water-damage reconstruction services cover rebuilding after emergency mitigation and structural drying are complete. For work extending beyond the bathrooms, see our home renovation services.
This project shows two bathroom designs within the same home. A similar renovation can follow a shared palette or give each room its own character, depending on how the spaces are used and what the homeowner wants to change.
