“Gracia renovated two bathrooms in our house and did an great job! From the consultation to pick out tile, vanities and hardware to completing the projects on time.”

Two bathrooms can look the same on the day they are finished and be very different in ten years. Here is what we do behind the tile.
| Part | How we build it | What to avoid |
|---|---|---|
| Waterproofing | A Schluter membrane behind tile in the shower and over the floor where it's needed, sealed at every seam and corner before a single tile goes on. | Paint-on products or plain drywall behind the tile, which can fail quietly for years before you see it. |
| Shower floor | A properly sloped base or a linear drain, so water runs to the drain every time. | A flat base that leaves standing water in the corners. |
| Ventilation | An exhaust fan sized for the room and ducted outside, ideally on a timer. | A fan venting into the attic, which moves the moisture problem instead of solving it. |
| Tile | Large-format porcelain, laid flat and level with the right setting material. | Lippage you can feel underfoot and grout lines that crack. |
| Glass | Measured after the tile is in, then fitted to the finished walls. | Glass measured off the old walls, then shimmed to fit. |
The bathroom you have depends on when your part of Oakville was built.
1980s and 90s ensuites, usually with a corner jetted tub, a small builder shower and a long vanity. The tub becomes a freestanding one or goes altogether, and the shower doubles in size.
1970s homes with a compact main bathroom and a tub with a shower over it. A modern tub and shower, or a walk-in shower, and new plumbing behind the wall while it's open.
Newer homes with good layouts and builder finishes. A glass shower, quartz vanity and better lighting in the same footprint, like our West Oak Trails ensuites.
Older homes where we expect galvanized or cast-iron plumbing and uneven floors, and plan the budget for them before we start.
New circuits, heated floors and new lighting are filed with Ontario's Electrical Safety Authority by our licensed electrician, separately from the building permit.
Ontario's Building Code gives the Town 10 business days to decide on a complete house permit application. Most bathroom renovations need no permit at all.
If your bathroom needs a permit, we prepare the drawings, apply to the Town and book the inspections. Your quote says which applies.
Most single bathrooms take about two weeks on site. Several bathrooms can run at the same time: one family had three and a half done in about two weeks.
We measure, talk through the layout and finishes, and give you a fixed price. Tile, vanity and fixtures are ordered right away.
The old bathroom comes out down to the studs or subfloor, and we see what's behind the walls.
Drains, valves and wiring go in, then the Schluter waterproofing over every wet surface.
Floor and walls tiled, niches built, everything grouted and sealed.
Vanity, toilet, fixtures and lighting installed. The glass is measured once the tile is finished and goes in last.
We check every fixture with you, finish your list and clean up. The warranty starts.
It depends on the room and what changes. A main bathroom kept in the same layout sits toward the lower end of the range above, before HST. An ensuite with a freestanding tub, a large glass shower and a double vanity sits higher, and two bathrooms in one job add up. The estimator on this page gives you a range for yours.
About two weeks on site for most single bathrooms, after a week of design and ordering. Several bathrooms can run together: one family had three and a half finished in about two weeks.
Not to replace fixtures where they are. You need a Town of Oakville permit to add a bathroom, relocate plumbing fixtures like a toilet or drain, or move walls. Electrical work is filed with the Electrical Safety Authority. We take care of both.
Yes. It's one of the most common Oakville bathroom jobs we do, usually with frameless glass, a niche and a low or curbless entry.
Schluter waterproofing systems behind tile in the shower and on the floor where needed, sealed at every seam before tiling.
Yes. When you have more than one bathroom we plan the order so you always have one working, and we finish the most important one first if needed.
In an Ontario bathroom, most clients say yes. It's simplest to add while the floor is open, and it's on its own circuit filed with the Electrical Safety Authority.
Four years on our workmanship, plus the manufacturers' warranties on fixtures, vanities and glass.
