Overall, a general contractor provides home building services for an owner or developer. They may have their own team of builders or outsource certain jobs to subcontractor groups. Usually, the party commissioning the job (the home owner) rarely deals with subcontractors and communicates directly with the general contractor. However, a home owner can work as their own general contractor, dealing directly with subcontractors and overseeing the administration and organization of the entire building project. Depending on the nature of the job, a general contractor can also take on commercial projects or specialized jobs within the project.

A master bathroom has become an essential room in many households. For some, it's a convenient alternative to fighting for a spot in the family bathroom. For others, it's the perfect, private spot for some occassional relaxation. For many, it's both. The right remodeling contractor and design team can help you find the ideal balance of function and luxury.

What to consider for your new or remodeled master bathroom:

• Think about your daily routine - Would double sinks be most efficient? Perhaps it'd be handy to have a linen closet right in the bathroom. How about cabinet space?
• Ask your contractor about lighting options - think about makeup application, shaving, dressing, etc.
• Shower vs. Tub - versus both! Many couples opt for a stand-up shower for the everyday routine, plus an oversized tub for relaxing soaks

• Dual shower heads
• ...as well as full-body massage sprayers
• Heated floors and/or heated towel racks
• A television!

Still waking up every morning in the same old bedroom with dated wallpaper, bad lighting, and cramped closet space? If you currently spend as little time in your bedroom as possible, something is terribly wrong.

Many people now look at the master bedroom as an opportunity to create a relaxing retreat within their home. More than just your sleeping quarters, your master bedroom should be a space that you are delighted to share with your spouse, that brightens your mornings, and helps you unwind at night. This is a project that can do more than remodel the bedroom...it just might also revitalize your mood, your love, and your life.

What to consider for your master bedroom remodel or addition:

• Light - relocating or adding a window might allow for optimal natural light. Keep in mind, though, that your contractor will be limited by things like closet placement and basic room design.
• Closets! Do you prefer 2 personal closets or one big walk-in? Many contractors specialize in custom closet design to ensure that you get a convenient, functional space.
• Televisions and computers are often looked at as a no-no in the master bedroom. But if you must have either, consider a custom storage unit or armoire. This way you can tuck your taboo electronics away when they're not in use.
• Many couples plan for a lounging or reading area—perhaps you'd like to design a sunny nook into your bedroom, complete with built-in bookshelves and plush seating. Or a window seat that provides extra storage beneath it.

• Kitchen and/or wet bar with room for a coffee maker, toaster, small fridge, and wine rack.
• Balcony - a comfortable place to enjoy your coffee or wine!
• Fireplace
• Classic, neutral colors and textures that will stay in style
