Bathroom Remodel Wing • Redmond

Transforming dated floor plans into functional, durable sanctuaries

In our bustling tech-forward community, homeowners value efficiency, smart functionality, and durable, easy-to-clean surfaces. We frequently remove oversized fiberglass corner soaking tubs to create generous walk-in showers with dual heads, while expanding single vanities into 60″ to 72″ double-sink stations with generous drawer storage.

We incorporate smart digital thermostatic valves, touchless faucets, heated floors, and USB/outlet drawer organizers. Every electrical, plumbing, and mechanical rough-in is executed with licensed trades and approved through the City of Redmond Development Services (e-Track).

Craft Standards

High-Performance Mortar Beds vs. Thin Acrylic Inserts

Why custom mortar bed showers and engineered tile deliver greater durability, hygiene, and value than cheap plastic liners.

Custom Sloped Mortar Showers

Acrylic tub liners and shower inserts flex under weight, creak loudly, and eventually crack around the drain. We hand-pack dry mortar beds over presloped substrates for an immovable, rock-solid foundation.

  • Zero floor flex or hollow squeaking underfoot
  • Precision 1/4″ per foot slope directly toward drain opening
  • Custom shapes that maximize every square inch of available room

Grout-Free Quartz & Large Tile

Active households want minimal cleaning chores. We install oversized 24″x48″ porcelain tiles and slab quartz vertical surfaces, reducing grout lines by over 80% compared to traditional tile.

  • Minimal grout lines drastically cut scrubbing and cleaning time
  • Non-porous quartz surfaces resist soap scum and hard water stains
  • Stain-resistant urethane or epoxy grout that never requires sealing

Ergonomic Storage Niches

Plastic shower organizers suctioned to walls look messy and fall down. We frame generous built-in storage niches directly into wall cavities with integrated quartz ledges.

  • Recessed shelves flush with tile walls for sleek, tidy storage
  • Pitched stone sills that shed water and prevent sitting puddles
  • Generous heights to accommodate large shampoo bottles

Homeowner Benefits

Three Ways a Bathroom Renovation Delivers Everyday Value

A well-planned remodel eliminates morning congestion, lowers maintenance, and enhances long-term property value.

Streamlined Morning Routines

Dual vanities and dedicated drawer electrical outlets allow multiple people to get ready simultaneously without fighting over counter space or outlets.

  • Individual sink zones with dedicated mirror and task lighting
  • Hair dryers and curling irons stored plugged-in inside drawers
  • Ample deep drawers that keep daily counters completely clutter-free

Water & Energy Efficiency

Modern thermostatic valves maintain constant temperature without wasting water, while efficient LED lighting and Panasonic fans lower monthly utility bills.

  • Thermostatic shower mixing valves prevent sudden temperature spikes
  • Energy Star high-efficiency continuous ventilation fans
  • Dimmable LED lighting with automatic occupancy sensing

Competitive Housing Market Value

In our competitive real estate market, modernized bathrooms with double sinks and walk-in showers are high-priority wish-list items for discerning buyers.

  • Modern walk-in showers replace dated and disused jetted tubs
  • Clean, contemporary aesthetic that appeals broadly to homebuyers
  • All work fully permitted through City development services

Common Questions

Waterproofing & Wet-Area Questions

Clear answers about planning, permitting, waterproofing, and finish selections.

Can we remove our oversized corner jetted tub and build a huge shower?

Yes, this is the single most common bathroom project we execute. Older homes often have massive acrylic corner tubs that are rarely used and take up half the room. We remove the tub and platform, reconfigure the drain lines, and build a spacious walk-in shower with bench seating and dual shower heads.

Do we have enough room to replace a single vanity with a double vanity?

A comfortable double vanity requires at least 60 inches (5 feet) of wall width, though 72 inches (6 feet) provides ideal elbow room and drawer storage. During our initial walkthrough, we measure your wall dimensions, inspect the drain stack location, and show you layout options to fit dual sinks comfortably.

How does municipal permitting work for bathrooms in Redmond?

The City of Redmond uses the e-Track online permit portal. We prepare and submit all required plumbing, electrical, and building permit applications, provide mechanical details, and coordinate directly with municipal inspectors for rough-in and final sign-offs.

What type of tile is easiest to clean in a busy family bathroom?

Large-format porcelain tile (such as 12×24-inch or 24×48-inch) paired with stain-resistant epoxy or urethane grout is the easiest to maintain. Large tiles dramatically reduce the number of grout joints, while epoxy grout is non-porous and never absorbs water, dirt, or mildew.

What makes mortar bed shower pans superior to prefabricated acrylic pans?

Prefabricated plastic pans can flex under weight, feel hollow, and crack around the drain over time. We construct custom hand-packed dry mortar beds directly over structural subflooring, pre-sloped precisely to the drain. Combined with bonded waterproof sheet membranes, this creates a solid, silent, lifelong shower floor.

What is the construction timeline for a full bathroom or primary suite renovation?

A complete bathroom renovation takes between 4 and 6 weeks. This includes demolition, rough-in mechanicals, municipal inspections, shower pan flood testing, tile installation, quartz countertop fabrication, plumbing trim, glass installation, and final review.

How do you handle electrical needs for modern grooming appliances?

We run dedicated 20A GFCI circuits to the bathroom and integrate power strips inside vanity drawers. This lets you store hair dryers, straighteners, and electric toothbrushes plugged in yet completely hidden, keeping countertops clean, organized, and clutter-free.
