The Finishing Touch: Why Upgrading Wall Plates in YourLuxury bathroom Kitchen Remodel Colorado Makes All the Difference

1-Gang Black Toggle Plastic Wall Plate

When homeowners think about a bathroom or kitchen remodel, they usually focus on the big-ticket items — new cabinets, stunning countertops, luxurious tile backsplashes, and modern fixtures. But ask any seasoned general contractor or interior designer, and they’ll tell you: the magic is in the details. One of the most overlooked but high-impact finishing touches in any remodel is the wall plate cover. At Park County Construction Co. (PCC), we believe that every detail should reflect the overall quality of your kitchen or bathroom remodel — and that includes your wall plates.

From Cheap Plastic to Premium Presentation

The standard white wall plates you find in most homes are made from cheap, glossy plastic. They’re functional — they cover the junction box, hide the wires, and provide a clean outlet or switch interface. But when you’re spending tens of thousands of dollars to create your dream kitchen in Conifer or a spa-like bathroom in Breckenridge, why finish it off with a $0.59 piece of plastic?

Enter the 1-Gang White Decorator/Rocker Plastic Wall Plate from Hampton Bay. This isn’t your average plate cover. It’s a two-piece, clip-together system designed with just the right amount of visual depth and clean finish to complement designer spaces. Slightly larger than standard plates, these covers do more than just hide the hole in the wall — they frame your new backsplash, accent your paint or tile, and elevate the perceived quality of the entire room.

Attention to Detail = Designer Results

Let’s say you’ve just remodeled your kitchen in Evergreen. The tiles are custom-cut. The lighting is perfectly balanced. You have a modern farmhouse sink and real wood cabinetry. But right above your counter, there’s a series of mismatched or poorly installed wall plates, maybe even slightly off-color. Instantly, the space feels off.

Now imagine that same space with clean, flush-mounted, oversized decorator wall plates. Everything aligns. The wall plates reflect light softly and complement your tile layout. The edges are clean, the look is seamless — and your friends can’t quite figure out why your kitchen looks so damn polished.

Why PCC Adds the Extra Step

At Park County Construction Co., we work throughout Jefferson County, Park County, and Summit County — towns like Bailey, Fairplay, Dillon, Frisco, and Golden — helping homeowners bring their dream remodels to life. And one of the things our clients notice most about our work isn’t just what we build, but what we finish.

We don’t cut corners. That’s why we use wall plates like the Hampton Bay Decorator/Rocker line. These finishing touches are inexpensive, but they signal craftsmanship, attention to detail, and pride in the work.

The True Cost of a Cheap Finish

In remodeling, first impressions are everything. If you’re remodeling a home in Morrison or Nederland to list on the market, you need every competitive edge. Buyers can spot lazy finishes from a mile away. Sloppy caulking, cheap fixtures, misaligned switches — all of these little flaws scream "cheap flip" rather than "thoughtful upgrade."

High-end wall plates aren’t going to break your remodel budget. But they will set your space apart.

Final Word: The PCC Difference

There’s a reason homeowners in Leadville, Georgetown, Idaho Springs, and the Front Range choose Park County Construction Co. for kitchen and bathroom remodeling. We understand how little things — a better grout line, flush-mount lighting, an extra coat of primer, or yes, a thoughtfully selected wall plate — can elevate your space from "new" to remarkable.

Your kitchen or bathroom isn’t just a room — it’s a reflection of your taste and investment. Don’t let it fall flat on the details.
