What's Included

Full-scope bathroom work.
Done right from the substrate up.

Most bathroom failures trace back to shortcuts in waterproofing or substrate prep. We don't take those shortcuts — because we're the ones who fix them when they fail.

Shower and tub replacement or conversion
Tile work — floor, walls, and shower surround
Vanity and countertop replacement
Toilet and fixture replacement
Mirror, lighting, and exhaust fan
Waterproofing and moisture barrier installation
Drywall repair, backer board, and paint
Flooring — tile, LVP, or heated floor systems
Accessibility modifications (grab bars, walk-in shower)

Waterproofing First

Every wet area gets proper membrane waterproofing before tile goes up. This is the step that determines whether a bathroom lasts 5 years or 25.

Tile Work Done Right

Layout planned before the first tile is set. Grout lines consistent. Cuts clean. No lippage. We treat tile work as a craft, not a production task.

Plumbing & Fixture Coordination

We coordinate plumbing rough-in and fixture installation in the correct sequence. No tile installed before the plumber signs off on rough-in.

Realistic Timelines

Bathroom projects have a lot of sequencing dependencies. We build that into the schedule — not around it.

The Process

How a bathroom renovation actually works.

01

Scope Assessment

We inspect existing conditions — waterproofing, subfloor, plumbing rough-in — before quoting. Hidden issues get identified before they become change orders.

02

Itemized Quote

Clear line items. Material selections confirmed before work begins. No surprises when the tile arrives.

03

Demo & Waterproofing

We demo to the studs, inspect the substrate, and install proper waterproofing before any tile or finish work begins. This is where corners get cut by other contractors — we don't cut them.

04

Installation & Finish

Tile, fixtures, vanity, and trim installed in the correct sequence. We don't rush phases to hit an arbitrary deadline.

05

Final Walkthrough

We walk the completed bathroom with you. Grout lines, caulk joints, fixture alignment — everything is reviewed before we close the job.

Common Questions

Bathroom renovation FAQ

How long does a bathroom renovation take?

A standard bathroom remodel — tile, vanity, fixtures, and paint — runs 1–3 weeks. Full gut-and-rebuilds with plumbing relocation run 3–5 weeks. We set a realistic schedule in the quote and communicate any changes proactively.

Do you handle waterproofing?

Yes, and we treat it as a non-negotiable step — not an upsell. Proper waterproofing behind tile in wet areas is what separates a remodel that lasts from one that fails in 3–5 years. We use industry-standard membrane systems.

Can you convert a tub to a walk-in shower?

Yes. Tub-to-shower conversions are one of the most common bathroom projects we handle. We manage the plumbing rough-in changes, waterproofing, and full tile installation.

Do you handle permits for bathroom work?

Plumbing and electrical modifications require permits in most municipalities. We identify permit requirements during scope review and manage the process. Permit costs are included in the quote.
