How were you involved in the creation of the Gordon James home? 

Ferguson worked with the homeowner and designer to select home plumbing solutions that worked with their vision. We enjoyed working on the custom artisan home because it gave us a chance to use our expansive skillset.

As an initial guideline, Gordon James provided us with the plumbing allowances and floor plan. The homeowners visited the showroom with the designer to view the home plumbing solutions that were available. 

What made this project unique?

The faucets in many rooms followed the current trends of matte black and champagne bronze. The homeowners also selected a hammered, polished, nickel-powder bath sink with a beautiful wall mount faucet to exhibit a unique installation and metal sink.

What was the homeowner’s vision for the project?

The homeowners liked an overall classic design but also wanted trendy finishes and clean lines, creating a home that will be gorgeous and relevant twenty years from now. They also offered us Pinterest photos that we were able to work with to achieve their desired style for the front of the home and the finishes of the walls, floor, and countertops.

Describe your process.

First, we review the floor plan with the client and discuss how they or their families will use each space. This enables us to get a feel for what types of materials, finishes, and shapes will be durable and functional, yet achieve their desired look. We then review the budget and continue to keep that in mind as we make selections room by room. 

What should a homeowner look for in a plumbing company?

A homeowner should look for a showroom with a wide range of products on display, a consultant with knowledge and experience, and a company that will help guide them through the process. Building can be overwhelming at times due to the constant plethora of options. In these situations, it’s nice to have a consultant that knows how to manage your time well and has your best interest in mind.

The additional steam unit for the lower level bath is my favorite. It’s such a wonderful way to relax and unwind during our nearly seven months of winter in Minnesota!
