Bathroom remodels and tub-to-shower conversions
A bathroom is the room where a shortcut shows up fastest. Water finds every gap a crew rushed. We build them to keep that water where it belongs, in homes all over western Maine from Bethel to Bridgton.
What we do behind the tile
The part you see is tile and a new vanity. The part that matters is what's under it. We waterproof before anything goes on the wall, so the shower stays sealed for the long haul, not just for the photo.
Full remodels, gut-and-rebuilds, vanities, new fixtures, tile floors and walls. One crew handles it start to finish, so the person who set your pan is the same person who grouts your wall. Done square, done clean, and done when we said we would.
Tub-to-shower conversions
Lots of folks have a tub nobody uses and want a walk-in shower instead. It's one of the jobs we get asked about most. We pull the old tub, reframe and re-plumb as needed, waterproof, then tile or set the shower base and glass.
It opens the room up and makes daily life easier, especially in a house you plan to stay in. We'll talk through your options at the free estimate and put an honest written quote in your hands before any work starts.
Older Maine homes and what they hide
Around here a bathroom remodel often turns up surprises once the wall is open: rot from a slow leak, out-of-square framing, plumbing that's been patched a few times. We've seen it and we deal with it instead of tiling over it.
Lake-country humidity and freeze-thaw winters are hard on a bathroom, so the build choices matter. We tell you what we find and what it'll take to do it right, in plain terms.
Common questions
How long does a bathroom remodel take?
Every job is different, but a straightforward remodel or tub-to-shower conversion usually runs a couple of weeks, and a full gut-and-rebuild longer. Older homes can add time if we find rot or plumbing that needs fixing. We give you a realistic timeline with your written quote, not a guess that slips.
What does a bathroom remodel cost in this area?
It depends on size, fixtures, tile, and whatever the walls hide once we open them up. There's a wide range, so any number online is just a rough idea. Every job is different, so the honest answer is to ask for a free quote and we'll price your actual bathroom.
Do you handle the waterproofing, or just the tile?
We handle the whole thing, and the waterproofing is the part we won't skip. Proper waterproofing behind the tile is what keeps a shower from leaking down the road. One crew does it all, start to finish.
