At NexGen Baths, we believe your bathroom should be more than just a place to get ready. It should be a space that reflects your lifestyle, supports your routines and adds lasting comfort to your home. Whether you’re working with a compact guest bath or remodeling your forever home's primary suite, the right bathroom upgrade can significantly boost your home’s value, usability and joy.
Here are the top bathroom remodeling projects Central Iowans are asking for in 2025 and how NexGen helps make them easy and worthwhile.
Walk-In Showers (and Wet Rooms for the Win)
Walk-in showers are far and away the most popular upgrade and it’s no surprise. They're safer, more spacious and so much easier to clean than outdated tubs.
What our clients love:
Frameless glass doors that make the room feel bigger
Low-threshold or curbless entry for aging-in-place and mobility ease
Stylish built-in seating and grab bars
Custom Onyx Collection walls in modern or classic finishes
Sleek storage niches and linear drains
Wet rooms are also on the rise for homeowners who want a spa-like experience. These open-concept, fully waterproofed spaces blend style with high functionality.
Custom Vanities and Thoughtful Storage
Storage struggles? You’re not alone. Whether it’s hiding countertop clutter or adding more space for towels and toiletries, Central Iowa homeowners want vanities that work and wow.
At NexGen Baths, we guide you through options like:
Deep drawer vanities for daily essentials
Vertical towers or linen cabinets for narrow spaces
Recessed storage niches and custom shelving
Electrical outlets tucked away inside cabinets
Floating vanities to create more floor space
Smart storage is about making your mornings smoother and your bathroom more enjoyable every day.
Small Bathroom Remodels With Big Impact
Homes in Beaverdale, Highland Park and other Des Moines neighborhoods often feature smaller bathrooms. But size doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice function or style.
Our go-to solutions:
Floating vanities and wall-mounted toilets to free up space
Large-format tile and oversized mirrors to reflect light
Glass panels instead of bulky curtains or shower doors
Custom layouts that make the most of every inch
Even a half bath can feel like a retreat with the right design choices.
Smarter Layouts = Smarter Living
If your current bathroom feels cramped, outdated or awkward, a layout change could make a world of difference.
We often help homeowners:
Replace tub/shower combos with walk-in showers
Move toilets for better flow and privacy
Reconfigure layouts to create open, connected spaces
Eliminate wasted space around doors or corners
And because we focus on future-ready design, we also help you plan for aging-in-place and long-term comfort, not just a quick fix.
