Bathroom remodeling done right in older Greater Boston homes
Waterproofing first
Most bathroom failures start behind the tile. Every shower gets a full waterproofing system before tile goes on.
Old-house surprises handled
Rotted subfloors, old galvanized pipes and knob-and-tube wiring are common in Somerville. We look for them before we price.
Design you approve first
See your bathroom in 3D, pick real tile and fixtures, then we build it to match.
