Bathrooms that work every day and hold up for decades

Full bathroom remodels, walk-in showers, tub-to-shower conversions, and tile work across Bellingham and Whatcom County.

Bathrooms are engineering as much as design

A bathroom is a small space packed with plumbing, electrical, ventilation, waterproofing, and finish work — and it’s the room most likely to have hidden problems when you open the walls. Half the value we bring is knowing what to look for and how to solve it once we find it.

Every Whatcom County bathroom we build gets proper waterproofing behind the tile (not just greenboard), correctly sized ventilation, and finish work that holds up in the wettest room of the house.

What's included

Full Renovations

Tear-out to finish. New layouts, walk-in showers, custom vanities.

Walk-In Showers

Curbless entries, custom tile, glass panels, proper waterproofing.

Small Updates

Vanity, tile, lighting, and fixture refreshes without a full gut.

What we offer

Full Bathroom Remodel

Tear-out to finish. New layout, new plumbing, updated electrical, ventilation upgrade, waterproofed shower or tub surround, tile, cabinetry, and fixtures. A full Bellingham bathroom remodel takes 3 to 5 weeks of active construction.

Walk-In Showers

Curbless entries, custom tile floors sloped to a linear or center drain, and glass panels or full enclosures. We waterproof with Kerdi membrane and pre-sloped pans — the right way to build a shower that lasts.

Tub-to-Shower Conversions

A tub-to-shower conversion is one of the most-requested Whatcom County remodels for aging homeowners and primary bathrooms nobody uses as a tub. We remove the tub, re-frame the opening, waterproof the base, and install a walk-in shower in the same footprint.

Vanities and Countertops

Custom or semi-custom vanities with quartz counters, undermount sinks, and drawer organization. Wall-hung floating vanities are a popular modern option in Bellingham remodels — they open up sight lines and simplify cleaning.

Tile and Waterproofing

Every wet zone in the bathroom gets a full waterproofing membrane, not just cement board. Shower walls, pan, tub decks, and any tiled bench — all sealed to Schluter or equivalent spec before the tile goes on.
