A premium bathroom renovation is not just about beautiful tiles and expensive fixtures. It is a combination of precise installation, perfect geometry, modern materials, and thoughtful ergonomics. In Kutaisi, the quality of the finish is especially important: the humid climate, temperature fluctuations, and the characteristics of local homes require extra care.
Why premium bathroom renovations are in a category of their own
Premium class means not only high cost, but also:
- The use of materials from Porcelanosa, Kerama Marazzi, Villeroy & Boch.
- Strict adherence to waterproofing technologies.
- The use of professional plumbing fixtures.
- Detailed design: niches, concealed installation, lighting.
In Kutaisi, where there are many new residential complexes and old houses, the approach to renovation depends on the condition of the utilities and the layout.
Materials for premium renovations
Ceramic and porcelain tiles
The best choice for wet rooms. Large-format tiles (60×120, 80×160) are used in the premium segment. Advantages: minimal number of joints, monolithic effect, durability.
Premium‐class plumbing fixtures
- Faucets: Grohe, Hansgrohe, Tres.
- Installations: Geberit, TECE.
- Bathtubs and showers: high‐quality acrylic, cast stone, tempered glass.
Waterproofing
For the climate in Kutaisi (humidity, temperature fluctuations), we recommend two‐layer cement‐based waterproofing + additional treatment of corners with elastic tapes.
