Questions to ask before you hire

  • Who handles plumbing and electrical, and are they licensed?
  • What happens if you find water damage behind the walls?

Frequently asked questions

Can a tub be converted to a shower?

Usually. Drain location, waterproofing, and whether you want a curbless entry change the scope. Say so in your brief.

How long does a bathroom remodel take?

It depends on scope, inspections, and material lead times. Ask the contractor for a schedule in the quote.
