Bathroom Renovation
Full-renovation scope. Finish: Champagne Bronze (-CZ) throughout. Aesthetic: tone-on-tone black, minimalist.
Tile & Finishes
| Walls (main bathroom, to 60") | Dolce Italia Palacio Midnight 12 x 24 porcelain Menards SKU 7384323 · actual 11-7/8" x 23-7/8" |
|---|---|
| Floors (bathroom + shower) | Dolce Italia Palacio Midnight 12 x 12 porcelain mosaic Menards SKU 7384325 · continuous across bathroom and shower floor |
| Grout | Black epoxy (Laticrete Spectralock, Mapei Kerapoxy, or equivalent). |
| Edge trim | Schluter Schiene L-Angle, finish to match the Champagne Bronze fixtures. Thickness to match tile. Continuous horizontal line at 60" around the main bathroom; also at all exposed tile edges (shower curb top and face, shower entry, door-jamb edges). |
| Floor transition (to hallway vinyl plank) | Schluter Reno-U, finish to match the Champagne Bronze fixtures. 25° sloped profile, handles tile-to-vinyl height difference. |
To discuss with you:
- For change-of-plane joints (wall-to-ceiling, floor-to-wall, inside corners) — is silicone the right call, or is there a Schluter profile that works at those seams? Black silicone wherever silicone is used.

To discuss with you:
- Tile the wall to 60" before the vanity goes in, so the counter sits flush against finished tile?
