Bathroom renovations in Chatham-Kent.

Waterproofing done right the first time, then tile, fixtures and finish carpentry to match — built to last as long as the house.

Our Approach

A bathroom either lasts twenty years or fails in three.

The difference is almost never the tile you can see. It's the waterproofing membrane, the slope of the shower base, the sealed penetrations and the ventilation behind it — the work that gets covered up and never inspected again.

We build those layers properly because we're the ones setting the tile over them. Nothing is rushed to get to the finish, and nothing is hidden that we wouldn't be comfortable showing you first.

It's also a room your household needs. We schedule the work tightly, keep the site clean, and tell you honestly which days will be the disruptive ones.

What's Included

A full rebuild, not a refresh.

Everything below is coordinated under one contract, with one point of accountability.

01

Design & Layout

In-house drawings, fixture planning, and a layout confirmed before anything is ordered.

02

Demolition & Disposal

Old tile, tub, vanity and subfloor removed back to studs, with dust control throughout.

03

Framing & Blocking

Wall changes, niche and bench framing, and solid blocking for grab bars and vanities.

04

Plumbing & Electrical

Licensed trades for relocated drains and supply, exhaust ventilation, pot lights and heated floors.

05

Waterproofing

Membrane systems, sloped shower bases, sealed corners and penetrations — done to manufacturer spec.

06

Tile, Fixtures & Trim

Wall and floor tile, niches, vanity and fixture install, then trim and finish carpentry — self-performed.

How It Runs

Four stages, start to finish.

Most bathrooms run three to five weeks on site, depending on scope and fixture lead times.

STAGE 01

Consultation

On-site walkthrough, measurements, and an honest conversation about scope and budget.

STAGE 02

Design & Quote

Layout drawn, tile and fixtures selected, trades scheduled, and a written quote you can plan around.

STAGE 03

Build

Demo through rough-in and waterproofing, then tile, fixtures and finish carpentry.

STAGE 04

Walkthrough

Punch list, full cleanup, and a final walkthrough together before it's called done.

Common Questions

What homeowners ask us.

How long will my bathroom take?

Most bathrooms run three to five weeks on site once demolition starts. Custom glass and special-order tile are the usual delays, so we order early and schedule around delivery.

We only have one bathroom — what do we do?

We plan single-bathroom jobs differently: tighter scheduling, trades stacked where possible, and the toilet reinstalled as early in the build as it can be. We'll tell you exactly which days it's out of service.

What waterproofing do you use?

A full membrane system behind tile in all wet areas, with sloped bases, sealed corners and sealed penetrations, installed to the manufacturer's specification. We're happy to show you the system before it gets covered.

Do I need a permit?

Replacing fixtures in the same locations usually doesn't. Moving plumbing, altering walls or changing the layout typically does. We'll tell you at the consultation and handle the permit process where one is required.

Can you make it more accessible?

Yes — curbless showers, wider doorways, blocking for grab bars, comfort-height fixtures and non-slip tile. Worth planning now even if you don't need it yet.

Will the price change once you start?

The quote is what you pay unless you change the scope or we uncover something behind the walls — rotted subfloor, old plumbing, hidden water damage. If that happens, you'll see the cost before any work goes ahead.
