Master Bathroom Remodel in Lynnwood WA - A Private Space That Finally Works

This is the room you use first thing every morning and last thing at night. When it fights you, you feel it every day.

Moisture is the biggest warning. Look at the ceiling and the corners. Black or green spots, peeling paint, and a musty smell mean water is not leaving the room. Check the floor near the tub and toilet. If it feels soft or spongy, the wood below may be rotting. Cracked grout and loose tiles in the shower let water slip behind the wall. That water sits in the dark and feeds mold.

A weak fan makes it worse. Many bathrooms in older Lynnwood and Edmonds homes have a tiny fan, or none at all. Steam has nowhere to go, so it settles into the paint and the framing. A new bathroom needs a fan that is the right size and vents outside, not into the attic.

Then there is the layout. Maybe the shower is cramped. Maybe there is one small sink for two people. Maybe the tub is old and you never use it. Some homeowners want to swap a tub for a walk-in shower so it is easier on their knees. Others want a double vanity, better lighting, or more storage.

Age is a plain reason too. Old pipes, outdated wiring, and worn fixtures can all fail. If you are already fixing leaks every year, a full remodel may cost less than patching again and again.

Basement and lower level bathrooms have their own issue. Ground moisture creeps up through the slab and into the walls. If that is your situation, we look at the source of the dampness before we pick any tile. A new finish on a wet wall will fail fast.

We start with a free visit. John looks at the room, the walls, the floor, and the fan. He checks for soft spots and signs of past leaks. You tell us what drives you nuts and what you wish you had. That talk shapes the whole plan.

After that, we write the quote. It lists demolition, plumbing, electrical, waterproofing, tile, fixtures, and paint as separate lines. You see where the money goes before we begin.

Permits come next, and we take care of them in-house. Moving plumbing, changing wiring, or opening walls usually needs one. Snohomish County and King County have their own rules and their own inspectors, so we follow the ones that fit your home.

Demolition is the loud part. We protect the rest of your house with plastic and floor covers, then take the room down to the studs. This is when we see what was hiding. If there is mold or rot, we stop and show you. We cut out the bad wood, fix the cause of the leak, and let the area dry before we build back.

Now the hidden work happens. We run new plumbing and wiring where needed. We install the fan and vent it outside. Then we waterproof the shower and floor with a sealed barrier. This step matters more than any tile you pick, because it keeps water inside the shower where it belongs.

Then comes the finish work. We set tile, hang the vanity, install the toilet, fit glass or a curtain rod, and paint. Fixtures go in last so nothing gets scratched.

Finally, we walk through with you. We test the shower, the drains, the fan, and the lights. If something is not right, we make it right. Then we clean the room, and we haul away all the debris.

We will not throw out a number sight unseen. Bathrooms differ too much. Here is what moves the price.

Start with the scope. Swapping fixtures and paint is a lighter job than gutting to the studs. Moving the toilet, shower, or tub means moving pipes, and that adds labor.

The shower is a big piece. A basic tub surround costs less than a custom tiled walk-in with a bench and glass door. Size, tile type, and the amount of waterproofing all change the total.

Hidden damage can shift things. If we open a wall and find rot or mold, that wood has to come out. We tell you right away and explain the fix. You decide before we go further.

Finishes make a large difference. Tile, vanity, countertop, faucets, and lights come in many price levels. A double vanity costs more than a single.

Electrical and ventilation matter too. A new fan with a proper vent run, new outlets, and better lighting each add to the job.

Your estimate is free and there is no trip fee. Our quotes are itemized, honest, and put in writing up front. No hidden fees. If you change the plan, we update the numbers first.
