Bathroom Remodeling in Palatine, IL

Palatine bathroom remodeling, from selections to final walkthrough

The calendar for a bathroom starts when your materials arrive, not when you sign. So we help you settle the tile, vanity, faucet, shower valve and toilet early, and we confirm they are on hand before we tear anything out. That keeps your bathroom from sitting gutted while a part is on backorder. From there our crew does the demo, plumbing, electrical, waterproofing and tile, then the vanity, fixtures, trim and paint.

Palatine is on our regular route, up Route 53, with Rand Road, Northwest Highway and Dundee Road reaching downtown, the Metra station and the neighborhoods around Harper College. It is a Cook County village. A shower floor has to fall toward the drain, about a quarter inch per foot, or water sits in the corners and works into the grout. We set that slope in the base, cover it with the membrane and fill it with water before tile, so you know the shower drains and holds before it is finished.

What a Palatine bathroom remodel includes

Selections before demo

We help you choose tile, vanity, valve and fixtures, and confirm delivery before the old room comes out.

Correct shower slope

The shower floor falls to the drain at the right pitch so water does not sit in the corners.

Flood test

The waterproofed pan is filled and checked for leaks before tile goes on.

Tub to shower option

If you want the tub gone, we convert the space into a walk-in shower with the drain moved to suit.

Plumbing and wiring

New supply lines and drains, a fan duct to the outside, lighting and GFCI outlets, all in the same job.

Finish work

Drywall, trim and paint, so the room is complete when we leave.

Palatine bathroom job, step by step

First we visit at no charge, measure and talk through the selections. The written estimate names the fixtures and tile area, lists the work in order and gives you the number of days to expect. We set the start date once your materials are confirmed and keep to it. If opening the walls turns up anything new, we put the price in writing and wait for your approval, and the job ends with a walkthrough where we run the shower in front of you.

FAQ

Bathroom Remodeling in Palatine: questions

Why wait for materials before starting my Palatine bathroom?

So your bathroom is not torn out while a vanity or valve is on backorder. Once everything is on hand, a half bath is often about a week and a full bath usually two to three weeks.

Do I need a permit for a Palatine bathroom remodel?

Plumbing and electrical changes usually require one. We pull it where Palatine requires it and set the inspections before the walls close.

What does a flood test do?

We fill the waterproofed shower pan with water and leave it to make sure nothing leaks before tile goes on. It is the one point where a leak can be found without tearing out finished tile.
