Oswego, Kendall County

Bathroom Remodeling in Oswego

Add a working bathroom to your Oswego basement, or rebuild the one upstairs, with the plumbing, venting and wiring done right. One crew handles every trade the bathroom needs.

Oswego bathrooms, upstairs and in the basement

Whether it is a new bathroom or a rebuilt one, we take on the whole room: the shower or tub, the tile, the vanity and toilet, the fan, the lighting and the walls. Showers get a continuous waterproofing membrane that is sloped to the drain and water tested before tile, since tile and grout let water through over time. Our crew handles the plumbing and electrical in the same job, so you deal with one estimate and one schedule. A half bath is often about a week, and a full bath usually takes two to three weeks once materials are in.

We cover Oswego in Kendall County on Route 34, Route 71, Orchard Road and Wolfs Crossing Road, on both sides of the Fox River. If your Oswego basement has capped drain stubs coming out of the slab, a bathroom can go in over that rough-in, and we confirm the stubs are vented and in usable spots before we lay out the room. Where there is no rough-in and the fixtures sit below the sewer line, the new bathroom drains to an ejector pit with a sealed lid and its own vent. Basement bathroom walls stand on concrete, so we use treated bottom plates and duct the fan outside to keep moisture out of the framing.

Bathroom Remodeling by ONIT Solutions

What we include in an Oswego bathroom

Basement rough-in check

We locate the drain stubs, confirm they are vented and lay out the room so the toilet and shower land where they work.

Ejector pit and pump

Where fixtures sit below the sewer, we install a sealed ejector basin, pump, check valve and vent.

Showers on a tested membrane

Waterproofing goes over the walls and pan, sloped to the drain and flood tested before tile.

Framing on concrete

Treated bottom plates and moisture-resistant board go where the walls meet the slab.

Fan and lighting

An exhaust fan is ducted outdoors, the lighting gets its own switch and the sink outlet gets GFCI protection.

Vanity, toilet and trim

The fixtures are installed and tested, then we hang the door casing and base and paint.

How an Oswego bathroom project runs

We look at the space, the existing plumbing and where the drain can tie in, then write a free estimate that lists every fixture and every trade. For a basement bath, the estimate shows whether we are using an existing rough-in or adding an ejector pit, so you know what you are deciding on. Anything that turns up once the floor or walls are opened is priced in writing and done only after you approve it. We schedule inspections as the work reaches them and finish with a walkthrough where every drain and the pump run in front of you.

  • Rough-in or ejector pit spelled out up front
  • Treated plates where walls meet concrete
  • Shower pan tested before tile
  • Fan ducted to the outside
  • Permits and inspections scheduled
  • Pump and drains run at the walkthrough
FAQ

Bathroom Remodeling in Oswego: questions

Do you build bathrooms outside Oswego?
Yes. We also cover Montgomery, Aurora and Plainfield for bathroom remodels and basement bathrooms.
Can you put a bathroom in my basement if there is no rough-in?
Usually, yes. If the fixtures sit below the sewer line, an ejector pit collects the waste and pumps it up to the main drain. We cut the slab, set the pit and run the vent, and the estimate shows that work as its own line.
Do I need a permit for a bathroom in Oswego?
A new bathroom, or any plumbing and electrical changes, generally needs a permit from the Village of Oswego. We pull it and schedule each inspection, so the work is checked before the walls close up.
How long does a basement bathroom take?
A half bath is often about a week, and a full bath usually takes two to three weeks once materials are in. Cutting the slab for an ejector pit and waiting on the rough inspection can push a basement bath toward the longer end.
How do I schedule an estimate?
