Bathroom Renovations
Bathrooms are small rooms where every millimetre shows.
Bathrooms are small rooms where every millimetre shows. A bad tile line or a shortcut behind the wall will haunt a Waterloo Region homeowner for a decade. We build bathrooms that are watertight first and beautiful second — which is the only order that actually works.
Proper membrane systems, correctly sloped shower pans, real ventilation and precise tile setting. Then the finishes people notice: frameless glass, heated floors, floating vanities and fixtures worth touching every day.

Plan your bathroom
What these transformations mean for your project.
A finished photograph helps you choose a look. The starting condition, layout and preparation help define the work behind it.
Idlewood: replacing the room, not just the fixtures
The Kitchener ensuite started with dark red walls, an oak vanity and a corner jetted tub. The completed room combines a freestanding tub, a frameless glass shower and marble-look finishes.
For a similar change, decide which fixtures move, how much floor space each needs and what storage to retain. Ask the quote to separate demolition, service changes, waterproofing, tile and glass so the whole transformation is accounted for.

The Waterloo bathroom was stripped back and rebuilt with black hexagon floor tile, white subway walls and a black grid shower screen. The project record also describes waterproofing and underlay preparation.
When comparing a similar design, discuss the floor and wall preparation alongside the tile, shower screen and vanity. Matching the visible finish does not mean two proposals include the same work underneath.

Tell us whether this is your only bathroom and whether easier access, storage or a tub-to-shower conversion is the main priority. Project-specific costs and schedules follow the assessed scope; the photographed projects are not fixed-price packages.

A typical bathroom renovation takes 2 to 4 weeks on site once materials arrive. If it's your only bathroom, we plan the sequence to minimize the days it's fully out of service and tell you exactly what to expect.
