Bathroom Designers Charlotte
Frameless showers, sunken tubs, wood-like tile, glass mosaics, and exotic marbles aren't the only choices a homeowner has to make when splurging on a bathroom remodel. In Charlotte, as elsewhere, most of the cost for remodeling a bathroom comes from labor. That's why hiring a qualified professional is a make-or-break step.
Bathroom remodeling contractors worth their salt know things like how to prevent water seeping through the structure, even in tiny amounts, because someday you'll have extensive damage that doesn't repair easily. They also need to have design savvy, so that the big bucks you spend get you the feel you're after, such as a spa-like atmosphere or layers of understated elegance.
This list names 15 of the best Charlotte contractors who can deliver on all of those things. They know, for example, that atmosphere is wonderful, but that a successful bathroom design must manage bathroom remodeling costs and have functionality at its heart. The ranking reflects the contractors' high-end clients, budgets without limits, and craftsmanship that's hard to match .

Address: 3926 Miriam Drive, Charlotte, NC 28205
A 2013 whole home project by Alair Homes, formerly Advanced Renovations, involved a bathroom remodel so special that it became the subject of an article in Urban Home Magazine.

Other amenities were frameless glass shower doors, floating vanities with Carbono Silestone countertops, and a freestanding tub made by Signature Hardware.
This was just a sample of the standout remodels Alair Homes has become known for — the kind that has garnered the company more than a dozen remodeling awards over the past 15 years.

That wasn't the company's first CotY Award for stunning bathroom design. In 2011, the gold-tinged "Historic Bath," which captured a CotY Award in the over $60,000 category, featured a dual flush wall-hung toilet, walk-in closets, and crystal chandeliers. Their 2012 CotY award for residential bath under $60,000 had tempered glass vessel sinks and a vanity with an antique chair.

DeRhodes started the company in 2004, about 20 years after earning his bachelor's degree in architecture from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte.
