There are a few concerns that every new Diamond Bath client has in mind before they hire our company. We absolutely understand some of the negative preconceptions of remodeling contractors, and we do our best every day to demolish those past traits. Yet we still get a very popular and important question almost daily:
Do we have our own employees doing remodeling work or do we hire subcontractors? 

Our answer, and we believe the best answer for Northern Illinois homeowners, is we utilize both. 

Diamond Bath hires many multi-skilled tradespeople, full-time employees, that have years of construction experience with core remodeling skills that include framing, drywall, painting, custom tile work, finish trim skills, core plumbing updates to sinks, tubs and faucets as well as basic electrical skills to change out switches, outlets and light fixtures. 

Diamond Bath has also established a Preferred Partner Program over many years that has tracked every remodeling project where we've brought in a state licensed professional, typically for significant and permitted plumbing or electrical work, on behalf of our clients.  We keep an internal score card on our Preferred Partners to ensure the highest quality of work for Diamond Bath customers, while monitoring pricing and consistent timely delivery as well.  Historically, we've found that engaging a Preferred Partner in some bathroom remodeling projects provides both a time and cost savings to our Diamond Bath clients. 

But to cut to the heart of the question, we work diligently to make certain that a Diamond Bath employee is on-hand at ALL times, especially if one of our Preferred Partners is sourced for a special instance. And keep in mind, our Preferred Partners enjoy their relationship with Diamond Bath as it provides consistent work.  And they know they are being closely monitored and scored by Diamond Bath employees while providing important services. Ultimately, we want all our customers comfortable with the fact that you will always see a familiar face from Diamond Bath from the start until your remodeling project is complete.

When we work with local homeowners and ask questions about style - we get all kinds looks, responses and questions. Frequently we get conflicting answers from spouses, but that's okay - some of our very best projects have come as a result of a style "collaboration".  To help educate everyone on the topic of style, we were very pleased that our partners over at Houzz, put forth this extensive article this week titled, What's Your Bathroom Style? 9 Great Looks to Consider.
