The challenges in your industry

The competition for tenants and challenge getting leases signed for apartment buildings has never been more intense. You can’t get away with old kitchens and dirty, behind-the-times bathrooms any longer. However, you’ve also got to keep rental prices down to keep occupancy high. You know the challenges on the right only too well.

Higher expectations – The Millennials looking at your city units want a ‘hotel’ experience and amenities but have a beer budget. Your empty-nesters have been down the road and have high standards. Nobody wants to waste time cleaning and maintaining their new apartment bathroom.

Future tenants won’t tolerate move-in delays – You’ve seen it happen. You’ve lost tenants (or had to pay hotel expenses) because a ceramic tile fell off the wall and scratched the tub. Now your tenants move in date (and your revenue) is delayed. Even if you keep the tenant, it’s not a good situation.

Building construction costs, and hard-to-find, tile crews are not helping bathroom or renovation costs – Building new luxury market-rate or affordable multi-family apartments, or repairing old properties is costing more and taking longer. Finding tile crews or maintenance staff is expensive.

Healthy spaces matter – The push towards green, sustainable and healthy living has you installing a higher level of amenities in your common areas, but how healthy will a new tenant view your apartments if they see dirty, moldy grout joints or a cheap, yellowed fiberglass surround?


The solution is laminated bathroom and shower panels for multifamily apartments

Is there a way to deal with these problems? Is there a way to create a luxury or affordable apartment bathroom which prospective tenants view as ‘hot’ and won’t be a pain to maintain? In short, yes there is.

Although they look just like tile, stone or even cracked cement you won’t have the installation quality issues you’ve experienced with tile setters for your multi-family housing projects.
  • Lower construction costs with bathroom panels installed by your maintenance crew or carpenters – As you know qualified labor is a pain to find. Simple to install products are a major plus.
