Bathroom remodeling
Bathrooms that hold up to daily use, not just photos
Bathrooms take more daily wear than almost any other room in the house, so waterproofing and ventilation matter as much as the finish selections. We remodel primary bathrooms, hall baths and powder rooms \u2014 from a fixture and tile refresh to a full gut with a reworked layout, new shower pan, and updated plumbing and electrical, all permitted where required.
What's included
Scope we typically handle
- Layout changes to shower, tub, vanity and toilet placement
- Waterproofing and shower pan installation to code
- Tile work for showers, floors and accent walls
- Vanity, countertop and storage installation
- Plumbing fixture relocation and rough-in updates
- Ventilation fan sizing and installation for moisture control
- Permit submittal for plumbing and electrical work

Frequently asked questions
What East Bay homeowners ask us
Does a bathroom remodel require a permit?
Work that changes plumbing fixture locations, adds electrical circuits, or alters structural framing generally requires a permit. A like-for-like fixture swap often does not. We review your scope against your city's requirements and pull permits when the work calls for it.
How do you prevent water damage and mold after the remodel?
Proper waterproofing at the shower pan and walls, correctly sloped tile, and a ventilation fan sized to the room are the three things that prevent most long-term moisture problems. We follow manufacturer waterproofing systems and code-minimum ventilation as a baseline, not an upgrade.
Can you convert a tub to a walk-in shower?
Yes, this is one of the more common requests we get, particularly for primary bathrooms and for homeowners planning to age in place. It typically involves plumbing relocation, new waterproofing and framing adjustments, which we scope out during the estimate.
How long does a full bathroom remodel take?
A fixture and finish update can move faster than a full gut remodel with layout changes, which involves demolition, rough-in inspections, waterproofing cure time and tile setting. We provide a schedule specific to your scope before construction begins.
