Bathroom Remodeling in Glen Ellyn

Glen Ellyn bathroom remodeling, from the floor up

Tile only lasts as long as what it sits on, so our remodels start below the finish. We pull up the old floor, check the joists and subfloor, and fix them before tile. From there our crew handles the plumbing and wiring, builds the shower on a continuous membrane sloped to the drain and tested with water, and sets the vanity, toilet, lighting and trim. Drywall and paint close out the job, all under one written estimate.

Glen Ellyn is on our regular route. We take Roosevelt Road and Route 53 in, along with Main Street near the Metra station, Lake Ellyn and College of DuPage. It is in DuPage County, next to Wheaton and Lombard. If your Glen Ellyn bathroom floor bounces when you walk on it, or the old tile has cracks running in a line, the framing under it is flexing. Before new tile, we stiffen the floor by reinforcing the joists where needed, lay a new subfloor, and set the tile over a membrane that absorbs minor movement, so the new floor does not crack the same way.

What we include in a Glen Ellyn bathroom

How the work goes

We visit for free, walk the floor, and look at the framing from below if the basement ceiling is open. The written estimate lists each trade, and the framing repairs we can predict are on it from the start. If demo uncovers more, you get it in writing with a price and approve it before we go on. We start once materials arrive and end with a walkthrough where you see every fixture work.
