You spend a huge amount of time in your bathroom every day — so it really ought to be a space that suits your style and makes you happy. And yet many of us, daunted by the hassle and high cost of remodeling, live with outdated tile or a tub that’s seen better days. But you can sidestep all the inconvenience with the fast, professional installation provided by Bath Planet, a recipient of the Good Housekeeping Seal; some projects can even be completed in a single day. And the company’s proprietary technology and industry-leading collection of colors and design options mean you can have the luxurious oasis you’ve always wanted without getting soaked.
Elevated design, down-to-earth price
Bath Planet products are constructed of a scratch-resistant, ultra-durable polymer — the same tough material bowling balls and football helmets are made of — that’s available in a virtually unlimited array of colors and patterns. You love the look of travertine or marble? It’s yours — and for a fraction of the usual cost. You like the mental image of bathing au naturel in a crystal-clear stream? Opt for a river-rock pattern to make your mornings feel revitalizing without a deal-breaker price tag. Plus, the Bath Planet polymer is both nonporous, keeping mold and mildew at bay, and engineered to resist the scratching, staining and yellowing that can develop on other bath materials, so you’ll never have to spring for costly repairs or upkeep.
Another way Bath Planet stands out from its competitors is with its patented Reveal series, in which a decorative tile design is intricately engraved on the product surface. The laser-etched grouting patterns can replicate the look of classic subway tile, grand 12-by-24-inch Roman blocks, diamond and hexagonal tiles — there are nine patterns in all. And since the surfaces contain no porous traditional grout, they are more cost-effective to install and more resistant to mold and mildew.
Affordable accessories and accents
Bath Planet also offers sophisticated add-ons that can take your bath-and-shower remodel to the next level while keeping costs in check. The company partners with design-conscious manufacturers for stylish fixtures such as rain shower heads and faucet sets in your pick of finishes, and also has a full complement of available accessories to put the finishing touch on your new favorite place to start (and end) the day: Shower seats in several styles — there’s a bench in the same finish as your walls, a mod silhouette seat that folds up when not in use and the folding teak option shown above — invite you to soak as long as you wish. Bars and footrests in a variety of finishes (like the matte black above) add stylish stability. Sleek rectangular or corner shelves provide plenty of toiletry storage. And since Bath Planet’s product line has a variety of price points, it’s easy to incorporate the details that suit your aesthetic and your bank account alike.
“The bathroom is one of the trickiest rooms to renovate, given all the moving parts,” says Dan DiClerico, director of home improvement & outdoor at the Good Housekeeping Institute. “Bath Planet’s one-stop service, combined with its expert-vetted products and materials, make it a smooth, seamless process.”
