A licensed plumber replaces supply lines and the shower valve, and our electrician runs GFCI protection and exhaust fan wiring. Both get inspected before the walls close up.
Cement backer board, taped seams, and a waterproofing membrane go in first. Then we set porcelain or ceramic tile on the floor and walls with epoxy grout and silicone caulk at every change of plane.
Your new toilet, shower valve, faucet, vanity cabinet, and countertop get installed and tested. We check for leaks, adjust the toilet flange, and make sure the vanity doors close square.
We install a correctly sized exhaust fan vented outside, LED lighting on a dimmer, and finish the walls with moisture-resistant paint. The room is ready to use the day we hand it back.
We inspect the existing plumbing, check for moisture behind the walls with a moisture meter, and measure the room. You get a written scope and a fixed price, not a ballpark. This visit takes about 90 minutes and covers layout options, fixture brands, and tile selections.
We protect your floors and hallways, then tear out the old tub, tile, vanity, and drywall. A licensed plumber reroutes supply lines and drains, and our electrician runs new GFCI circuits and exhaust fan wiring. Demo and rough-in usually take three to five days.
Cement backer board goes up, seams get taped and sealed, and we roll on a waterproofing membrane across the entire wet area. The city inspector signs off on rough plumbing and electrical before anything gets covered. This stage is where cheap remodels cut corners, and it is where we refuse to.
We set porcelain or natural stone tile with a tile saw and notched trowel, grout with epoxy, and install the new shower valve, toilet, vanity, and countertop. Shower glass gets measured and ordered. Tile and finish work runs seven to twelve days depending on the pattern.
We test every fixture, run the shower for 20 minutes to check for leaks, verify the exhaust fan pulls air, and walk the room with you. You get a written warranty and a maintenance sheet. The whole job usually finishes in three to five weeks.

A wet saw cuts porcelain and natural stone cleanly without chipping the glaze. The grout float packs epoxy grout into joints evenly so the surface cures flat and stain-resistant.
The moisture meter tells us how far water has traveled behind the walls before we demo. The snake clears clogged drains so we are not rebuilding a bathroom around a slow drain.
The laser level keeps tile rows and vanity lines true across the room. The stud finder locates blocking for grab bars, cabinets, and heavy mirrors before we drill.
The multi-tool cuts drywall and backer board in tight corners without damaging adjacent surfaces. The caulking gun lays a consistent bead of silicone caulk at every change of plane.
We replace old copper with PEX where it makes sense, crimping every fitting and pressure-testing the line. The pipe wrench handles the shutoff valves and toilet flange connections.

A 1996 north Scottsdale master shower had a cracked pan leaking into the ceiling below. The tile was loose, grout was crumbling, and the drywall behind the shower was soft to the touch. The homeowner had been patching caulk for two years.
After: We replaced the subfloor and framing, rebuilt the pan with cement backer board and a waterproofing membrane, and set new porcelain tile with epoxy grout. The job took 24 days. A 20-minute flood test passed before tile went down, and the ceiling below is dry.

A 1988 McCormick Ranch master bath had a garden tub the owners never used and a 32-inch shower that felt cramped. The vanity was a single sink with a warped particle board cabinet and a stained laminate top.
After: We removed the tub, converted the space to a 48-inch walk-in shower with frameless glass, and rerouted the drain. The old shower footprint became part of a double vanity with a quartz countertop. The project finished in 28 days.

An Old Town Scottsdale hall bath had a high tub wall, a standard toilet, and no grab bars. The homeowner's mother had trouble stepping in, and the 1972 home still had original copper supply lines and lead paint under the finish.
After: We built a curbless shower with a linear drain, blocked the walls for grab bars, set a comfort-height toilet, and replaced the supply lines. Lead-Safe containment was used throughout. The remodel took 31 days and passed inspection on the first visit.
Book this service →Most bathroom calls start with something small: a stain on the ceiling below, a toilet that runs, or grout that keeps crumbling. Left alone, each one turns into a bigger repair. Here is what we see most in Scottsdale and how we handle it.
Ask a pro →We tear out the shower floor, replace the damaged subfloor and framing, and rebuild the pan with cement backer board and a waterproofing membrane. Then we flood-test it before any tile goes down.
We remove the failing grout, treat the hard water staining, and re-grout with epoxy grout that resists minerals and staining. New silicone caulk at the corners seals the joints that crack first.
We install a moisture-resistant vanity cabinet with proper wall blocking, and we fix the ventilation at the same time. A correctly sized exhaust fan vented outside keeps the new cabinet dry.
Our electrician traces the fault, replaces the GFCI outlet, and rewires the fan circuit to NEC standards. We size the new exhaust fan to the room and vent it through the roof or an exterior wall.
