What to plan for

Planning a bathrooms project

Waterproofing

Shower failures almost always trace back to the assembly behind the tile. We use tested waterproofing systems and detail curbs, benches and niches deliberately.

Ventilation

New England winters put a lot of moisture into bathrooms. Fans get sized and ducted to the exterior — never into an attic.

Floor framing

Heavy tile and stone need adequate deflection resistance. In older homes that sometimes means sistering joists before anything decorative happens.

Questions

Frequently asked

Is a bathroom remodel worth doing in an older home?

Often yes — it's a contained project that also lets you correct wiring, venting and water damage that's been hiding for decades.
