Living in River Ridge means dealing with heavy humidity and older home foundations that often settle or trap moisture where you least want it. If your current setup feels cramped, has cracked tile, or just looks like a throwback to thirty years ago, taking it down to the studs gives you a fresh start. As an experienced bathroom remodeler in River Ridge, LA, we take care of the entire job from tear-out to the final coat of paint. That includes moving plumbing lines, setting custom tile showers, putting in new vanities, and making sure the structure underneath everything is completely sound.

What We Handle
A complete bathroom overhaul involves a lot of moving parts. We handle all of it under one roof, so you aren't stuck trying to coordinate plumbers, tile setters, and electricians on your own. Whether you want to refresh a small hall half-bath or gut a sprawling master suite, we build spaces designed to handle South Louisiana's damp climate.
Our work covers full tear-outs, subfloor repairs, framing adjustments, custom tile installation, vanity placement, and updated lighting and ventilation. Exhaust fans are something people often overlook, but around here, pulling moisture out of the room is just as important as the tile waterproofing. We tailor every layout and finish around your daily routine, giving you better storage, cleaner lines, and fixtures that won't leak or corrode.

What You Actually Get Out of a Remodel
Remodeling isn't just about picking out pretty tile. It's about fixing functional problems that bug you every day. Older homes in our area often suffer from slow leaks behind tile walls, soft subfloors, and cramped layouts that waste floor space.
When you open up the walls, you get to fix those hidden issues before they turn into major structural repairs. Replacing outdated plumbing hardware lowers your monthly water usage, while a modern layout gives you room to move without bumping into doors or vanity corners. Modern waterproofing membranes protect your floor joists against sub-surface moisture, keeping mold out of your home. And if you ever decide to sell, a clean, modern bath is usually one of the first features buyers look for in Jefferson Parish.

How the Project Unfolds
Renovating a wet space takes careful planning. Jumping straight into tear-out without a solid plan leads to delays and unexpected change orders. Here is how we keep your project moving smoothly:
Initial Assessment and Measurement
We visit your home to check out the current space, measure everything, look at existing plumbing and electrical lines, and discuss what you want to change.
Design and Material Selection
You choose your tile, vanity, faucets, trim finishes, and shower doors. We help you pick materials that match your style and hold up well to daily moisture, then lock in a firm quote.
Demolition and Construction
Our crew strips away old materials, repairs any hidden floor or wall rot, runs new plumbing and electrical lines, installs waterproof backing boards, lays tile, and sets your new fixtures.
Final Inspection and Walkthrough
We sit down together and check every detail - shower seals, paint edges, tile grout lines, and drawer hardware - to make sure everything operates the way it should.
Real Homes, Real Results

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a typical renovation take?
Most full bath renovations take about two to three weeks once demolition begins. If we are changing the floor plan - like moving a toilet across the room, converting a tub to a low-threshold walk-in shower, or shifting water supply lines - it can add a few extra days to account for rough-in plumbing and inspections. Custom tile work also needs proper cure times between waterproofing layers, mortar setting, and grouting. We give you a clear schedule before we start so you can plan around the construction.
How do you figure out the cost?
We base our estimates on the size of the room, the scope of the structural and plumbing changes, and the materials you choose. A detailed, line-item quote covers everything: selective demolition, trash hauling, subfloor reinforcement, waterproofing membranes, tile setting, fixture installation, and paint. We review all line items with you before any work starts so you know where every dollar goes, avoiding surprises mid-project.
What kind of tile and finishes can I choose from?
You have complete freedom over your material choices. For floors and shower walls, porcelain and ceramic are hugely popular because they are non-porous and easy to wipe down. If you prefer natural stone like marble or travertine, we can install that too - just keep in mind stone requires periodic sealing. We also work with a wide range of custom vanities, quartz counters, frameless glass shower enclosures, and modern hardware finishes like brushed nickel, matte black, or unlacquered brass.
What happens if something needs adjusting after you finish?
We build things to last, but if a faucet valve feels loose or a drawer slide needs adjusting after we leave, just call us. We live and work in the area, so responding to minor adjustments or warranty questions is fast and simple. We stand behind our installation work and make sure you remain satisfied with the space long after the project is done.
Are you based right here in the area?
Yes. CMC's Contracting operates out of River Ridge and serves clients all across Jefferson Parish. Being close by means we get to your site quickly, check on progress daily, and handle any permit or inspection logistics without delay. Whether your home is near Jefferson Highway, Little Farms, or closer to the river, we are right around the corner.
Can we move the toilet, shower, or walls around?
Absolute layout changes are a big part of what we do. If your current layout feels tight, we can open up space by turning a tub alcove into a tiled walk-in shower, moving the vanity to a longer wall, or rerouting drain lines beneath the subfloor. We inspect your home's joists and plumbing venting ahead of time to confirm the layout change meets local plumbing codes.
How do you keep water from getting behind the tile?
Tile and grout are not inherently waterproof; moisture eventually seeps through grout lines over time. That is why the backing system behind the tile is the most critical part of the build. We use sealed cementitious backer board systems and continuous waterproof membrane layers underneath all wet-area tile. This seals off wall studs and subfloor wood, blocking water intrusion and preventing long-term mold issues.
What should I do to prepare my house before demo day?
Start by clearing out all personal items from medicine cabinets, drawers, and shower racks. Clear a direct walking path from your front or back entry door to the bath area so our crew can safely bring materials and equipment in and out. It is also a good idea to remove pictures or mirrors from shared bedroom or hallway walls, as structural vibrations during tear-out can rattle nearby walls. We place floor protection over your main walkways and install dust barriers to keep demo dust confined to the workspace.
