Bathroom Remodeling in Arlington Heights

Arlington Heights bathrooms, old walls and new work

A bathroom remodel has to meet the house at the edges: the hallway wall, the door casing, the floor at the threshold, the drain where it joins the main stack. We plan those joins before demo, then do the plumbing, electrical, waterproofing and tile with our own crew. The shower is built on a continuous membrane that we test before tile, and the fan is ducted outside. We finish the drywall, trim and paint so the new room matches the doorway it opens onto.

We work in Arlington Heights every week, up Route 53 and along Arlington Heights Road and Northwest Highway, from downtown and the Metra station to the rest of the village. It is in Cook County. Where an older Arlington Heights house still has plaster walls and cast iron drains, the remodel has to tie new materials into old ones. We cut plaster back to a clean line so cracks do not run into the hallway, and we check the cast iron where the new drain connects, replacing what is cracked or corroded at a price you approve first.

Arlington Heights bathroom remodel, what is included

How an Arlington Heights bathroom job goes

We come out free, look at the walls, the trim, the drain and the floor, and talk through what you want. You get a written scope with every fixture and finish, plus the trade steps in order. If the old drain or the subfloor needs more than we expected, we show you and price it in writing before we touch it. Once materials are in, we start on the day we gave you, and we finish by walking the room and the hallway around it with you.

• Plaster cut and patched to a clean line.
• Old drain checked where new pipe ties in.
• Trim matched to the rest of the house.
• Tested waterproofing under all shower tile.
• Permits pulled where the village requires them.
• A walkthrough of the room and the hall.
