Bathroom renovation services

Coordinate the visible finishes with the work behind them

Bathrooms place several trades and product decisions in a compact room. The scope is developed around the existing conditions, intended layout and finishes you want to live with.

1

Complete bathroom renovations

Demolition, preparation, coordinated trade work and finishing for primary bathrooms, family bathrooms and powder rooms.

2

Showers and tubs

Shower, tub, glass, niche and fixture planning based on room dimensions and the agreed configuration.

3

Vanities and storage

Vanity sizing, sinks, faucets, mirrors, storage and clearances organized around daily routines.

4

Tile and waterproofing

Coordinated preparation, waterproofing details, tile layouts, grout and transitions suited to wet areas.

5

Lighting and ventilation

Practical lighting, switching, receptacles and ventilation changes within the approved renovation scope.

6

Drywall and finishes

Wall and ceiling repairs, trim, paint and final finishing that bring the room together.

Before the estimate

Define the decisions that materially shape the scope

You do not need every product purchased before contacting us. A clear direction on layout, quality level and priorities makes the site meeting and estimate more useful.

Behind the finished surfaces

Moisture control and trade coordination matter as much as the tile

The finished room only tells part of the story. Existing framing, plumbing, electrical work, ventilation and past repairs can affect the final scope once demolition begins.

Wet-area preparation

Shower and tub areas require a coordinated approach to substrate preparation, waterproofing details and finish transitions.

Regulated trade work

Plumbing, electrical and ventilation changes are coordinated around the agreed layout and applicable project requirements.

Hidden conditions

Conditions that were not visible before demolition are explained before related additional work proceeds.

Oakridge handles permits when required as an additional project cost. Review the City of Oshawa building-permit information or discuss the proposed work at the site meeting.

Bathroom renovation costs

A useful budget begins with the actual room and intended result

Oakridge generally focuses on renovation projects starting around $15,000. Bathroom pricing varies with the work required, not simply the room’s floor area.

Layout changes

Moving plumbing, walls or electrical components changes the work behind the finishes.

Fixture selections

Vanities, tubs, showers, glass and plumbing fixtures vary widely in cost and lead time.

Tile and details

Tile size, pattern, niches, edges and room geometry affect preparation and installation.

Existing conditions

Past repairs, framing, plumbing, ventilation and moisture damage may affect the scope.

Bathroom renovation questions

Useful answers before requesting an estimate

Do I need to buy fixtures before requesting an estimate?

No. It helps to know the desired layout and quality level, but selections can be finalized after the direction is defined. Dimensions and product lead times should be confirmed before ordering and scheduling.

Can the bathroom layout be changed?

Often it can, but moving plumbing, walls, ventilation or electrical components changes the scope. The site meeting helps determine what is practical for the room.

Does a bathroom renovation require a permit?

Requirements depend on the property and work involved. Oakridge confirms permit needs for the actual scope and handles required permits as an additional project cost.

How long does a bathroom renovation take?

Timing depends on the scope, inspections, product availability, trade work and conditions discovered after demolition. Scheduling is discussed after the room and proposed work have been reviewed.

Where do Oakridge renovation projects start?

Oakridge generally focuses on renovation projects starting around $15,000. A bathroom estimate depends on the room, layout, fixtures, finishes and required trade work.

How are changes handled?

Requested changes are documented by email and signed off before the changed or additional work begins.

How will the rest of my home be protected?

We ask that personal items be removed from work areas, then install floor protection and dust containment appropriate for the planned scope.
