Bathroom Upgrades

Functional, stylish updates tailored to your home's era.

Whether refreshing a 1920s pedestal sink in a Waldo bungalow or installing walk-in showers for aging-in-place in Lee's Summit, our bathroom upgrades blend modern convenience with respect for your home's architecture.

We specialize in:
- Tub-to-shower conversions using low-threshold bases
- Vanity installations that maximize small KC bathroom footprints
- Historic tile restoration and regrouting
- Grab bar installations that look intentional, not institutional
- Waterproofing solutions for our humid summers

For older homes, we source period-appropriate fixtures or modify new ones to match. In newer developments, we install water-efficient faucets and LED lighting that cuts utility bills.

Every project includes proper ventilation to prevent Midwest mold issues. We coordinate with licensed plumbers and electricians as needed, handling all permits and inspections.

Frequently Asked Questions

How can I make my small KC bathroom more functional?

We often use corner sinks, recessed storage, and sliding shower doors to maximize space in pre-war bathrooms.

Will new tile crack with seasonal movement?

We use uncoupling membranes and flexible grouts to prevent cracks from our freeze-thaw cycles.
