The Level Volunteer Fire Company's banquet hall serves the Level community near Havre de Grace. Its restrooms were showing their age: small tan floor tile, tan and green wall tile with a brown stripe, beige stall partitions, and fluorescent tube lights.
We remodeled them. When we shared the finished rooms on September 2, we described the goal simply: "a cleaner, more modern feel built to serve the community for years to come."

The second restroom, photographed from about the same spot before and after.
What changed
Side by side, the photos show the updates in both rooms:
- Floors. The small tan tile gave way to a speckled gray floor.
- Walls. Large-format tile now runs up the lower walls, finished with a mosaic accent band, and the walls above are painted a deep gray.
- Stall partitions. Black partitions with bright hardware replaced the beige stalls.
- Vanities. New vanities pair a wood-grain base with a stone-look countertop.
- Lighting. Slim new fixtures replaced the old fluorescent tubes.
- Accessories. New wall-mounted paper towel dispensers.
The result is two restrooms that feel clean and current, the way a community hall should.
Why restrooms are worth updating
In any building the public uses, restrooms shape how people feel about the whole space. Dated tile and worn partitions make even a clean room look tired, and guests notice. Updating them is one of the most visible improvements a hall, church, office, or small business can make.
Restrooms are also a contained project. The work stays in two rooms, which makes it easier to plan around a building's schedule than a larger renovation.
