Bathroom Remodeling in Minooka, IL

Minooka bathroom remodeling

A bathroom remodel often starts with one complaint, usually the tub, and the rest of the room follows. We take out what has to go, rough in the new plumbing and wiring, waterproof the shower, and finish with tile, fixtures, drywall and paint. All of it stays with our crew, so one person answers for the whole job. The estimate is written and itemized before we start, and anything that changes after that is priced and approved by you first.

We come into Minooka on I-80 and Route 6 and work the neighborhoods off Ridge Road and McLindon Road. The village sits across Grundy, Kendall and Will counties, so the first thing we confirm on a job is which building department reviews it. For a tub to shower conversion, we talk through who will use the room over the next twenty years, not only this year. A low curb, a bench, a handheld shower on a slide bar and solid blocking behind the tile for grab bars are worth planning now, because adding them after the tile is up means cutting into finished work.

What a Minooka bathroom remodel includes

Tub to shower conversion

The tub comes out, the drain is moved to suit the new shower, and we frame a low curb, or a curbless entry where the floor framing allows it.

Grab bar blocking

Solid wood goes into the stud bays at the heights you choose, so bars screw into framing instead of hanging on tile.

Bench and niche

A built-in bench or a recessed niche gets waterproofed with the rest of the shower, not added as an afterthought.

Membrane and flood test

The waterproof layer runs continuous from the floor up the walls, and we test it with standing water before tile goes on.

Vanity at a comfortable height

We set the new vanity, top, sink and faucet at the height that works for your household and replace the shutoffs.

Lighting and GFCI outlets

We add light at the mirror and in the shower, with GFCI protection on the outlets as code requires.

How we run a Minooka remodel

The first step is a free on-site look, where we measure, check the floor framing under the tub and ask how the room gets used. You then get a written scope that names each fixture, the shower layout and the order of work. We set the start date after materials land, and we book around the days we said. If something changes, the change is written up with its price before the crew does it, and we finish with a walkthrough where you try the shower yourself.

FAQ

Bathroom Remodeling in Minooka: questions

Who issues the permit for a Minooka bathroom?

The village issues permits for houses inside its limits, and because Minooka spans three counties, we check your address first. When the job moves plumbing or adds wiring, we pull the permit and set the inspections.

Do you work in towns around Minooka?

Yes. Channahon, Shorewood and Joliet are on the same route for us.

Can you build a shower with no curb?

Sometimes. A curbless shower needs the floor recessed so water still runs to the drain, and that depends on the floor framing. We check it on the estimate visit and tell you plainly whether it works in your bathroom.

How long does a tub to shower conversion take?

As part of a full bathroom it usually runs two to three weeks once materials are in. The written estimate gives you the expected days for your job.

How do I start?

Call or text (815) 585-1750 and we set up a free visit. Photos of the tub and the room help us show up ready.
