Hi All,
First house and first remodel, dealing with a lot of decisions, as you probably know, and I am a bit lost. We bought a 1940 house in San Francisco and are remodeling the kitchen and bathroom. We don't plan for this house to be our be-all end-all home as we mostly live here because of work and we are not from here. But for the time we are here we would like good comfort and amenities, and the least amount of issues with plumbing.
The whole remodel project is already way over budget. Which are the middle of the line brands with decent quality?
I have quoted Grohe bathroom faucets, shower/tub valve and hand shower and I wonder if I am not spending too much when one faucet is U$176, trim set + valve $160, shower set at $292. Is this a mid of the road choice? If I could save a bit and still get good quality and style I would prefer.
Toilet I am looking at Toto Drake II with seat, and Tub a Kohler Archer.
I would very much appreciate your help.
Thanks
