Bathroom Remodeling in Tacoma, WA
Tacoma's older homes come with bathroom challenges I have seen hundreds of times: original cast iron tubs that weigh 300 pounds, galvanized steel drain lines corroded to half their original diameter, and hex tile floors set in a thick mortar bed. I work in the North End, Lincoln District, McKinley Hill, and throughout the city's established neighborhoods. My most requested project in Tacoma is converting a dated tub-shower combo into a walk-in shower with a linear drain and large-format tile. Over 20 years in the trades, I have built the skills to handle any plumbing or structural issue hiding behind those plaster walls.
A full bathroom remodel in a Tacoma home from the 1920s to 1950s typically takes 2 to 3 weeks. That includes demolition of the old tub and tile, replacing galvanized drain and supply lines with PEX and ABS, installing a new shower pan with waterproof membrane, tile work, a new vanity, and finish plumbing. I keep everything in-house so one crew handles demo, plumbing, drywall, tile, and trim. You can learn more about the full scope of work on my bathroom remodeling page.
Tacoma's building department requires permits for plumbing relocations and any work involving structural changes like removing a built-in linen closet to expand a small bathroom. I handle all permit applications and inspections through the City of Tacoma. For homes in historic districts, I follow the additional design review requirements to keep your project moving without delays.
If your Tacoma bathroom still has its original 1940s fixtures, it is time for an upgrade. Call me at (253) 392-9266 or request a free estimate.
