Full bathroom remodels
A full remodel means starting over with the whole room. A lot of the problems in old bathrooms are behind the walls.
Plumbing and electrical
Some of it Chino does himself, and he brings in licensed trades where the job calls for it. Moving plumbing or adding circuits usually needs a permit.
Your ideas
Bring the tile, vanity or fixtures you've already picked. We'd rather build around what you like.
Waterproofing
Tile and grout aren't waterproof. The shower gets built on a waterproofing system, and we work with HydroBlok and Schluter Kerdi.
Before you start
Think about how the room gets used every day and what bugs you about it now. Pick your tile, vanity and fixtures before the work starts, so nothing holds it up. Our guide to remodel costs explains what moves the price.

Full remodel questions
What usually turns up once the walls are open?
A soft subfloor, old pipes, or a fan that vents into the attic. You don't know until the tile comes off, so it's worth leaving a little room in the budget.
What waterproofing do you use?
We work with HydroBlok and Schluter Kerdi, and our waterproofing guide explains the difference.
Can I pick out my own tile and fixtures?
Yes. Let us know what you've got.
How far out do you schedule?
Usually about two weeks, so the materials are here before any work starts.
Where do you work?
Kansas City, De Soto, Lenexa, Olathe, Overland Park, Shawnee, Mission and Merriam.
