Ever wonder why we sometimes use an underlayment and other times skip it? Let’s break down Subfloor vs. Underlayment.
The Subfloor: This is your structural base (usually plywood or OSB attached to your floor joists). It’s the backbone of your room.
The Underlayment: This is the extra layer that goes on top of the subfloor.
When can you SKIP underlayment?
If you’re laying down finished materials like engineered hardwood, solid wood, or luxury vinyl plank (LVP), you usually don’t need it. You can install right over a clean, level subfloor.
When do you NEED underlayment?
1 To Match Floor Heights: If you’re transitioning from tile in the kitchen to engineered wood in the living room, an underlayment helps level the playing field so you don’t trip.
2 To Prevent Cracking (Uncoupling): For tile floors, a specialized underlayment (like an uncoupling membrane) is a lifesaver. It separates the tile from the subfloor, allowing the subfloor to naturally shift and move without cracking your beautiful tile and grout.
Save this for your next flooring project!

The Golden Rule of job sites: Leave it better than you found it. 🧹✨
When we finish a phase of a project, the broom comes out immediately. We set the bar high for ourselves, which means we expect every trade that walks in after us to do the exact same.
If a site is neat, tidy, and organized when a sub arrives, the expectation is that it stays that way when they leave. No exceptions.
To us, a clean site isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s proof of an organized contractor who respects your home. Our clients expect it, our team delivers it, and our trades respect it.
Drop a 💯 if you agree that a clean site is a safe, successful site!

The #1 mistake people make when planning a kitchen renovation? They design the layout before they design the functionality.
Think about your daily routine. When you open the dishwasher, are the upper cabinets and drawers right there for quick, effortless unloading? Or are you weaving around a half-open door to put a glass away?
Real efficiency is built into the micro-moments. Where the appliances sit in relation to your storage dictates how much you’ll actually enjoy using your space.
That’s why we zone and map out exactly how you live before we lock in a layout. Form follows function—always. Period.
Is your dishwasher strategically placed, or is it a daily headache? Tell me below!

The Secret to That Seamless Shower Flow
Let’s be real: we all love the sleek, high-end look of a linear drain, but “out of sight” shouldn’t mean “out of mind.”
To keep that spa-like vibe (and avoid standing in a soapy puddle), a little monthly TLC is non-negotiable. If you let hair products and soap scum build up, you’re basically inviting mold to the party.
How to DIY the Deep Clean:
1. The Lift: Use the specialized lifting tool to pop out the drain cover. (Don’t lose that tool!)
2. The Scrub: Grab a dedicated scrub brush. You want to hit the drain body, the carriage, and the finish trim.
3. The Rinse: Clear out any trapped hair and debris so the water flows as perfectly as the day it was installed.
Pro-Tip: Aim for a monthly refresh. Your grout (and your feet) will thank you!

The secret to a seamless, high-end bathroom? The Zero-Threshold Shower.
We get asked all the time why we go the extra mile for a curbless entry. The answer is simple: Uninterrupted flow.
By eliminating the curb, we can use large-format tiles that carry perfectly from the main bathroom floor right into the shower. It creates a massive, open feel that a standard base just can’t match.
How do we make the magic happen?
1. Slope the Subfloor: We drop and pitch the structural floor itself toward the drain.
2. Waterproofing: We apply a rigorous, top-tier waterproofing layer over the entire sloped area.
3. The Single Slope: This allows us to use those gorgeous large tiles without needing to “envelope” or cut them into small pieces.
Beauty meets precision.

The Truth About KitchenAid 🍳
Are appliances worth it for your next renovation? The answer isn’t a simple yes or no.
On the surface, they offer a sharp, professional aesthetic and great usability. But beauty has to be more than skin deep. On this recent project, we’ve hit some frustrating roadblocks just 18 months in:
• Spontaneous cracking on the induction cooktop glass.
• Rust stains appearing near the dishwasher vent.
• A fridge door that constantly pops open on its own.
When you’re investing thousands into a dream kitchen, you expect longevity. Does it make sense to buy them? It depends on your budget and the “built-in” look you’re after. But if durability is the goal, these issues shouldn’t be happening this soon.
It raises the question: Do you now have to buy an extended warranty just to have peace of mind? Or should we expect appliances to actually last longer than a year and a half?
What’s your experience been with KitchenAid? Let’s talk about it in the comments. 👇

The Kitchen’s Best Kept Secrets
There is something incredibly satisfying about a kitchen that looks effortless on the surface but works overtime behind the scenes. We’re talking about those “blink and you’ll miss it” features that turn a beautiful space into a high-functioning sanctuary.

The “Now You See It, Now You Don’t” Kitchen Strategy. 🥂☕️
Ever wonder how a kitchen stays so pristine during a dinner party? Swipe to see the magic behind the panels!
We designed this space with a “Clean vs. Messy” philosophy. Behind these seamless hidden panels lies a full walk-through pantry, the ultimate zone for coffee prep, toaster crumbs, and mid-meal clutter. Close the door, and the mess simply disappears, leaving you with nothing but sleek lines and calm vibes.
But the surprises don’t stop there. We’ve integrated:
• ✨ A Hidden Wine Vault: Tucked away for that perfect “reveal” moment.
• 🍷 Dedicated Glassware Display: Custom cabinetry that turns your stemware into art.
• 💡 The Mood: Precision LED lighting in every nook to create an unexpected, high-end glow the moment a door opens.
It’s not just storage; it’s an experience. Would you go for a hidden pantry or keep everything on display? Let us know in the comments! 👇

✨ The Power of a Seamless Flow ✨
Transform your kitchen from standard to custom with these two game-changing design details.
First, let the quartz countertops flow directly into the window sill. Not only does this add valuable width to your workspace, but it creates a sleek, uninterrupted line that draws the eye out.
To keep that flow going, we used jamb-mounted electrical outlets. By moving the plugs off the wall, we were able to run the same slab material up the backsplash for a perfectly seamless look: no plastic plates breaking up your stone.
That’s how we do custom at Boase Design Interiors.

Elevate your next bathroom renovation from “basic” to “boutique hotel” with these three design-forward upgrades. Whether it’s a high-traffic kids’ bath or a guest ensuite, these details transform a utilitarian room into a true experience.
Top 3 Upgrades for a Guest or Kids’ Bath:
1. The “Water Wall” Lighted Niche
Forget standard shelving. By adding integrated lighting to your shower niche, you create a “water wall” effect that instantly sets a spa-like ambiance. It turns a functional necessity into a glowing focal point.
2. Smart Mood Lighting
A front-and-backlit mirror is a game-changer. With adjustable color temperatures and dimming capabilities, you can transition from bright task lighting for getting ready to soft mood lighting for a relaxing evening vibe.
3. Invest Where You Touch
You don’t need to splurge on every single fixture to make a space feel high-end. Spend your budget on the things you interact with daily—like the vanity faucet. A premium, heavy-duty faucet paired with that backlit mirror makes the whole vanity feel like a million bucks, even if you keep the shower fixtures more budget-friendly
