Homey & Bright Bathroom
After 40 years of heavy use, the new owners of this home wanted to wipe the slate clean to match this bathroom to their personal style. The tub was rotting and shallow, the vanity was too short and clunky, and all the finishes were ugly and outdated! To achieve this, Sexton Fix, Design, Build removed all the old fixtures, tile, tub, flooring and vanity. A new, deep soaking tub was installed with modern tile, and Michael custom built the entire vanity based on what the owner's spatial needs and aesthetics were. The flooring, finishes, fixtures, and colors were all selected to provide a homey and bright feeling to an otherwise rotting bathroom. What a relief!

Kitchen Dreams Really Do Come True!
This kitchen was dark, dingy, and cramped. With two kids, this family needed a clean, modern, and updated look with more storage but didn't want all new cabinets due to budget constraints. To achieve this, Sexton Fix Design Build hand-fabricated all new kitchen cabinet doors and drawers in a light, contemporary Shaker style. We also designed a brand new green kitchen peninsula with an initial visualization to add more storage, countertops, and a fun extension to the existing kitchen footprint. The kids love sitting at the new counter! With the new quartz countertops and a fresh backsplash, the kitchen now is bright, light, functional, and new.

Retro Nob Hill Bathroom
This bathroom wasn't in too bad of shape, but the owners wanted to preserve some of the retro style of the bathroom while updating the look and creating more space and privacy from their neighbors. New tile and two custom niches as well as a bright wall color that the owners picked cheered up and modernized this bathroom. A new, higher window was installed to give more privacy and retro fixtures were installed to retain the funky, nob hill feeling in this bathroom.

Sophisticated Farmhouse Kitchen
This kitchen had an outdated and poorly-functioning layout, color scheme, and lighting plan. It felt dingy, dimly-lit, and cluttered but had original adobe brick walls and the potential for a beautiful design. To create a warm, sophisticated, and organized farmhouse feeling, Sexton F|D|B changed the layout of the kitchen to add much more storage space with custom-built shelving and more cabinetry. We also created hand-built wooden countertops and a stained and glazed wooden backsplash, updated and installed lighting to modernize the farmhouse feel, and installed new appliances. All new luxury vinyl flooring was also installed to create an elegant, yet functional foundation.

21st Century New Mexican Whole House Refresh
The owner of this full master bathroom, half bathroom, and kitchen loves New Mexican style but wanted to take a modern approach to her remodel. The bathroom melded clean lines and modern amenities while paying homage to New Mexico traditions and style. The bathroom featured soapstone countertops and shelving and a quartz shower floor. It also had a custom walk-in shower, seating, shelves & niches, cabinet design & build by Euro Fe, wall-mounted sink fixtures, and a unique tile design. The kitchen melded clean, modern cabinetry with soapstone countertops and all new fixtures, flooring, and electrical..... a beautiful transformation of her whole home!

Contemporary Classic Casita
This casita, built in 1970 by a German Design & Builder, was in need of a facelift by 2018. The casita had poor ventilation with no cooling, a lack of light, worn surfaces, and outdated walls, electrical, textures, and colors. To bring the casita up to the same level of quality and design standards of the main house, Sexton F|D|B remodeled the bathroom and added all new electrical, ventilation, colors, and Hansgrohe fixtures with a custom vanity.
We also designed and installed a new walk-in shower while using the original slab, removed all the windows in the casita and replaced them with custom-sized windows and detailed trim, salvaged the original parquet floor and restored and glazed it, refaced and refinished all of the built-in surfaces, and resurfaced the walls. The client also designed a prototype barn & pocket door hybrid for the bathroom that Sexton F|D|B designed and built, creating a custom one-off sliding door that is functional yet beautiful.

Clean & Hip Bathroom Remodel
This remodel was an original Albuquerque 50's style bathroom that was in desperate need of updating to match the cool, comfortable, and well-designed house. The bathroom was too small and poorly laid out for modern uses. There was also dim lighting and unattractive surfaces. Sexton F|D|B demolished the hall closet that was originally protruding into the bathroom and opened up the wall to create more space. We removed the old bathtub, toilet, and sink and relocated the sink to the opposite wall. We also designed and built a doorless walk-in shower with subway tile and custom built compartments within the shower. We installed a new tile floor, smoothed and painted the walls, and added can and vanity lights. We also installed a sliding barn door to add an additional resolve for spatial issues and finish off the cool, modern, and relaxed feeling of the bathroom.

60's Track Home Kitchen Relocation
This 60's track home previously had a tiny galley kitchen that didn't even have a stovetop! We worked with the clients to design and relocate their kitchen to the pre-existing dining room so that it would open up to the sliding doors and onto the patio. By opening up the wall, the kitchen now spans both rooms and lends itself to dining, entertaining, and much better functionality. Now, with a contemporary, clean design, the kitchen is a warm and inviting place to entertain and cook for the client's growing family. SFDB created custom shelving, constructed the kitchen, and helped the clients coordinate the entire process from design to build.

Spa-Inspired Bathroom
This bathroom was outdated, poorly built and laid out, and lacked light, despite a beautiful window to the outdoors. Sexton Fix Design Build created a spa-like atmosphere with white-washed pine walls, a cedar ceiling, natural colors and materials in the large walk-in shower, and custom built wood shelving. To open up the space, the shower was extended, and the sink was minimized, highlighting the areas that needed to be larger and minimizing the ones that didn't matter as much. Lighting was added to create a subtle ambiance and natural feeling throughout. Ahhhh.

Fresh & Fun Bathroom Remodel
What a lovely bathroom transformation! This teenage girl's bathroom was outdated, very boxed in and cramped. We opened up some of the walls and replaced the closet with custom-built shelving to create a lighter, more open feeling. More lighting brightens the room and the tile follows a corner inset we built within the shower.

Brilliantly Bold Bathroom Remodel
As shown in the before pictures, this bathroom was quite outdated. The shower vault was removed and opened up to create a glass-enclosed, Clé Tile shower that overlooks newly created window and the 700 pound, concrete bathtub. Custom floating shelving was created above the new toilet and bathtub. The vanity was custom made and was complemented by wall-mounted fixtures and a statement tiled wall that rises to the ceiling.

Playful Handmade Tile Bathroom Remodel
This bathroom was a hodge-podge of outdated materials, pieced together and complete with a gold-encrusted mirror on the ceiling. The client worked with Sexton Fix Design Build to design a layout that optimized the space and highlighted the handmade ceramic tiles that she created. The results were fantastic! Bold textures, designs and fixtures make this one of the most playful, dynamic bathrooms we've helped design and build to date!
