Bathroom Renovations in Burnaby, BC

WHERE WE REMODEL

From Post-War Bungalows to Brentwood Tower Ensuites

Burnaby, BC hands us four very different bathrooms. Post-war bungalows around Burnaby Heights hide cast iron drains and undersized joists beneath the tile. Split levels in Sullivan Heights stack bathrooms back to back, so a single wall carries every supply and waste line. Concrete tower suites in Brentwood and Metrotown limit drain slope and demand strata sign off before a tool comes out. Townhomes across Langley, Surrey, Richmond and White Rock bring their own quirks. We survey the structure before quoting the finish.

01

Full Bathroom Remodels

Down to the studs and back again, with framing corrections, new supply and drain lines, insulation, membrane, tile, fixtures and lighting. Layouts get properly rethought rather than simply replicated, so the finished space finally suits the way the room is genuinely used.

02

Tub-to-Shower Conversions

A rarely used tub becomes a proper shower without shifting the footprint or moving a single wall. The alcove is reframed, the drain relocated and lowered, and the walls waterproofed to full height before tile, glass or seamless acrylic panels go in.

03

Walk-In and Curbless Showers

Joists are notched or the floor built up so the drain sits flush and water still runs the right way. Linear drains, carefully sloped mud beds and wide clear openings make daily use easier without the finished space ever reading as clinical.

04

Vanity, Countertop and Storage Upgrades

Cabinetry sized to the plumbing rather than the other way round, with quartz or solid surface tops, undermount basins, soft close drawers and mirrored storage. Small rooms gain genuinely usable depth through smarter fittings and better placement, not through moving walls.

05

Tile and Waterproofing Systems

Sheet or liquid membrane, banded corners, sloped pans and a flood test before any tile is set. Large format porcelain, mosaic feature bands and heated floor mats are all laid over substrate that has already proved in advance that it holds water.

06

Ensuite and Powder Room Additions

New bathrooms carved from closets, landings or underused corners, with drain routing, venting and electrical all planned around the existing structure. Permits are filed, inspections are scheduled, and the addition is finished so that it matches the rest of the floor.

TESTIMONIALS

01

A Room That Stays Dry Behind the Tile

Membrane laid over sloped substrate and flood tested before tiling means moisture never reaches framing at all. That is what keeps grout from cracking, floors from softening underfoot, and repair invoices from arriving three or four winters later.

02

Ventilation That Actually Clears the Steam

A correctly sized fan, ducted in a short straight run to the outdoors, pulls humidity out instead of parking it in the attic. Mirrors clear faster, paint stops peeling above the shower, and mould loses the damp it needs to establish.

03

Storage Where Your Hands Already Reach

Drawer banks, recessed niches and mirrored cabinets placed at the heights people genuinely use rather than standard ones. Countertops stay clear because everything has somewhere sensible to live, which makes a modest room feel considerably larger than its measurements suggest.

04

Lighting That Works for Grooming, Not Just Ambience

Layered task lighting either side of the mirror, damp-rated fixtures over wet areas, and dimmable overheads for late nights. Shadows disappear from the places where shaving, makeup and reading very small print actually happen every single morning of the week.

05

Fixtures Sized to the Plumbing You Have

Choosing a vanity, tub or shower valve against the real supply pressure and existing drain positions avoids expensive surprises at rough in. Everything specified fits the house as it stands rather than forcing the house to accommodate a catalogue photograph.

06

Accessibility That Does Not Announce Itself

Solid blocking behind the walls for future grab bars, curbless entries, comfort-height toilets and lever handles throughout. The room works for aging parents and for small children now, and adapts later without needing another full renovation a decade from now.

WHO WE ARE

We Ask the Awkward Questions Early, Not Halfway Through

12 years of opening bathroom walls has taught us what usually hides behind them, so we raise it at the walkthrough rather than in week three. Where the vent terminates, whether the joists will carry a freestanding tub, how much slope the drain has left, what the strata bylaws actually say. Those answers shape the quote you receive, which is why our numbers tend to hold to the end. Bring us your measurements and photographs through the contact page and we will start there.
