Contractors Keep Us Sheltered

Look up at the ceiling over your head, and also think about the roof above it. You are lucky to have that shelter. Of course, you worked hard to afford it, but that point aside — someone else worked really hard to build it. Our point here is that without construction workers and contractors, we would not have homes in which to live. We all value our homes, and of course, we value the other buildings we spend time in, too. Everyone has a different way of showing their appreciation for this work. Our way is to write about construction on this blog. Your way could be reading about construction on this same blog!

Three Reasons To Buy A Square Toilet

by Glenda Perkins

When you picture a toilet, it's likely that you picture a fixture that has a rounded bowl shape. These toilets are immensely popular, but it's important to know that there are other products on the market. If you're starting to shop for a new toilet that you'll use to replace your existing toilet during a bathroom remodel, it's a good idea to familiarize yourself with the many different toilets that are available. When you visit a retailer that specializes in bathroom fixtures, you can expect to see a number of square toilets. Here are some reasons to buy a square toilet.

Comfort

Although many traditional round toilets can be fairly comfortable, you might be surprised at just how comfortable a square toilet can be. Perhaps you've had a chance to sit on one at a friend's home or at a hotel. The comfort is a result of the shape of the seat. Instead of it narrowing at the front to form an oval, it remains wide in more of a square shape. If you have a larger body, you'll likely find that the seat shape offers more support beneath you. This can help you to feel more comfortable and relaxed while you use the toilet.

Modern Style

Square toilets can vary in appearance, but it's common for this fixture to have a modern look. If you decorate your bathroom to have an ultra-modern appearance, you might find that a traditional toilet looks a little out of place. It can be a better decision to shop for a toilet that has a modern look, and a square model certainly fits this description. In a modern bathroom, you'll often have decorations that feature straight lines rather than curved lines. The straight lines of a square toilet will tie in well with this modern look.

Unique Look

Some people make an effort to find unique fixtures for their bathrooms and beyond, and you may count yourself among this group. While there's nothing wrong with buying a conventional-looking toilet, you might find that something different is more appealing. A square toilet can provide a lot more of a unique look in your bathroom, often causing guests to comment on it. This is something they almost certainly wouldn't do if you were to buy a conventional toilet. Visit a local bathroom fixtures store to browse a selection of toilets, including those that have a square design.
