- We've lived in this house for two years now.
Yeah, right before our third child was born.
- Lots of families here and we got three kids,
it's a good fit.
So when we first moved in to the house,
we really needed to clean it up, it definitely needed a facelift,
really all the way around the house.
- [Announcer] The Duesings gutted and remodeled the kitchen
in their home but the project took way longer than
expected and isn't quite finished.
- Life in general with three children is somewhat chaotic.
On a good day, I might get an hour to work on something
and it might be one day a week, which is kind of why this
whole thing is taking so long.
How tall is that?
- [Announcer] One project the family placed
on the back burner was remodeling their bathrooms.
- The bathrooms are probably priority number 45, 46 and 47
on my list of to-dos.
- [Announcer] And that's where we come in,
calling in Mansfield Plumbing to help give the Duesings
some bathroom Botox, a fresh new look that
won't break the bank and that fixes their number
one frustration as parents.
(eerie music) - It's a tough time
right now for them.
They've got old toilets that are,
some of them are inefficient.
One of them doesn't flush all the way
and they both plug up.
Either you're cleaning it, you're plunging it
or you're cleaning around it and they both share
the cleaning duties so, they're like hey, we
need something that's going to make this easier for us.
- [Announcer] Enter the Vanquish toilet,
a revolutionary new design starting with side-mounted
seat hinges that make it easy to clean.
- That flat deck surface on the back,
when a tinkle does turn to sprinkle,
you can wipe it off really easily.
Pure clean glaze so it rinses well
and then that real powerful flush mechanism that we have.
I'm really excited that is going to be a great solution.
I think it's going to solve a lot of their issues.
- [Announcer] A plumber gets to work
removing the old toilets while stylist Lindsay
Lara works with the family on design ideas for both
the kids' bathroom upstairs and the guest bath downstairs.
- Tell me a little bit what you're thinking
for the bathrooms?
- It seems small but one of the big things is that
our kids are washing their hands a lot
and the towel rack is right above the toilet
so the kids just yank the towel down,
it falls in the toilet so that's a big problem.
Just having kid-friendly bath but still having it look nice.
- [Announcer] With her mission set, Lindsay and her team
get to work renovating the bathrooms.
Meanwhile, our plumber has finished installing the
Vanquish toilet in the upstairs bathroom.
- Looks good.
- Uh, yeah.
Number one you'll see it's a elongated bowl
and high height so it's a very comfortable seat to be in.
We talked about it early on, it's this
no-hinge seat and so we've taken the seat hinges
off the top of this and we've moved them off to the side,
which gives you a nice clean deck
so that you can wipe that off.
- Easy clean, that's amazing.
I didn't think when I heard side-hinges,
I didn't really understand until I saw it.
How cool it is to just do one wipe and it's clean.
You know, you're usually wiping all around
into the crevices and it takes forever
and you don't really feel like you get it clean.
But with this, it really is really easy.
- I want you to watch this flush.
So, it's a very simple lever on the side.
You get a full flush, it looks like you get a lot more water
going through than you really do.
So, it's still the 1.6 gallons.
So, all that toilet paper that you talked about
gets pushed through.
- [Announcer] And with a soft close feature
that means no more slamming the lid.
- That toilet is really solving like every single
one of the problems that we have as parents
with kids who can't flush and are messy.
- And with that pure clean glaze, the action of the water
takes away all the debris.
So, clean toilets, easy to clean when it does get a little
dirty and easy to maintain going forward.
- [Announcer] As the renovation continues,
the plumber puts in a brand new Mansfield pedestal sink
for the downstairs bathroom and finishes up installing
the Vanquish toilet.
- I think the kids are going to love the new toilets.
They don't have to try so hard to flush,
they won't get yelled at if they didn't flush
it all the way.
- [Announcer] And finally, it's time for the big reveal
upstairs.
- Right, are you guys ready to see the bathroom?
- [All] Yes.
- Yeah, let's check it out.
- All right, let's go.
- Wow.
- Holy cow.
- Oh, it's so pretty.
New faucets.
How many towel racks.
- [Lindsay] So, what do you guys think?
- [Stephanie] We love it.
- [Lindsay] You do?
Can you see the difference?
- [Stephanie] Yes, it's beautiful.
- [Lindsay] It's clean, crisp, bright,
goes with the rest of your house so it'll be easy.
- [Stephanie] It's gorgeous.
- It's great.
- I'm so glad.
- It looks like a whole new bathroom.
- [Rick] It's a nice bright space now.
And it's nice and fresh.
- [Stephanie] Functional, too.
- [Announcer] And then the guest bathroom is revealed.
(gasps) - Wow.
- Whoa, look at that.
- [Stephanie] Oh my gosh, look at that mirror.
- [Rick] Oh, perfect.
- No more towels falling in the toilet.
It was surprising how different it looks
just by changing out light fixtures.
The vanity looks totally different now
with the different knobs and the cute little facuets.
Even though it's the same with the paint
and the light fixtures and all of those cool elements
combined, it looks like a totally new bathroom
even though we didn't gut it.
They're so excited.
They're going to love it and I'm going to love not
having to pick up after them.
And they're going to love not getting yelled at.
- And Mansfield, thank you very much
for unclogging our lives.
