Bathrooms done right,down to the waterproofing.

You've been meaning to deal with it for years. The cracked tile, the tub you never use, the stain that keeps coming back. What's stopping you isn't the vision, it's the number, the days without a working bathroom, and whether it's waterproofed right so it lasts. All three of those are answered below.

What We Do

One bathroom, one crew, start to finish.

Swap a tub for a walk-in shower, or take the whole room back to the studs. Either way it's the same crew from demo to the last bead of caulk, so nothing falls between trades.

Tub-to-Shower Conversions

Trade the unused tub for a walk-in or curbless shower that actually gets used.

Full Gut Remodels

Down to the studs and rebuilt: layout, plumbing, tile, and finishes, all new.

Custom Tile & Waterproofing

Shower pans, niches, and full walls set on a proper waterproof system.

Vanities, Counters & Fixtures

New vanity, stone tops, faucets, toilet, and lighting picked to fit the room.

Flooring

Tile or waterproof plank over a solid, level subfloor, repaired first if it needs it.

Lighting & Ventilation

Better light and a properly vented fan, so mirrors clear and mold stays out.

Accessibility & Aging-in-Place

Curbless entries, grab bars, and comfort-height fixtures built in from the start.

Plumbing & Electrical Updates

Move a drain, add a circuit, replace old supply lines, handled and permitted.

Half-Bath & Powder Rooms

Small footprint, big impact: the guest bath finished as sharp as the main one.

The Number

What a bathroom actually costs.

No two bathrooms cost the same, and anyone who quotes you off a photo is guessing. Most jobs fall into one of three buckets. Your exact number comes back free and in writing, usually the same day.

Refresh

Same Layout, New Everything

The room stays where it is. New vanity, fixtures, tile surround, paint, and lighting on the existing footprint.

  • Tub or shower surround retile

The Timeline

How long you're actually without a bathroom.

A typical full remodel runs about two to three weeks on site. If it's your only bathroom, we plan the sequence around that so your downtime is measured in days, not weeks. Here's how a job goes.

1

Free Written Quote

We look at the room, talk through what you want, and send a real number in writing, not a ballpark over the phone.

Day 1
2

Selections & Scheduling

Tile, vanity, fixtures, and finishes get picked and ordered before we start, so nothing stalls the job mid-stream.

Before Demo
3

Demo & Haul-Off

The old bathroom comes out clean and goes straight into our own dumpster. No debris sitting in your yard for a week.

Days 1–2
4

Rough Plumbing & Electrical

Any relocated drains, valves, and circuits go in and get inspected before a single wall gets closed up.

Days 3–5
5

Waterproofing & Tile

The shower gets a proper waterproof system and a sloped pan before any tile is set. This is the step nobody sees and everybody skips.

Days 6–10
6

Vanity, Fixtures & Finish

Vanity, top, toilet, glass, lighting, paint, and trim go in. The room turns back into a bathroom.

Days 10–13

Walkthrough & Punch List

We walk it together. Anything that isn't right gets fixed before we call it done and before you pay the balance.

Final Day
Done Right

The part you'll never see is the part that matters.

A bathroom that looks great on day one and leaks by year three was built wrong behind the tile. Here's what we don't cut corners on, because it's the difference between a remodel and a redo.

A Real Waterproof System

Backer board, membrane, sealed corners and penetrations, and a properly sloped pan. Not green board and hope.

Permits Pulled, Work Inspected

Plumbing and electrical get done to code and signed off, so it holds up at resale and your insurance stays valid.

Subfloor & Framing Checked First

Old bathrooms hide rot. We find soft subfloor and bad framing on demo day and fix it, before it's buried under new tile.

Proper Ventilation

A right-sized fan vented all the way outside, not into the attic. It's the cheapest way to keep mold from coming back.
