Trusted Bathroom Remodeler in Kenner, LA

Most complete remodels take anywhere from two to four weeks once active construction begins. Smaller jobs - like replacing a vanity, toilet, and mirror - might take only a few days. However, if we are tearing out floor slabs to move plumbing stacks or building a large custom tiled walk-in shower, plan on three to four weeks. We give you a straightforward timeline before touching a hammer.

Square footage is part of it, but material choices and structural changes make the biggest difference. Custom natural stone, custom glass doors, and high-end cabinetry cost more than standard porcelain tile and stock vanities. Finding hidden rot in the floor joists or outdated pipes behind the plaster can also alter the scope. We lay out full itemized estimates upfront so there are no surprises midway through.

Porcelain and ceramic tile are top choices for shower walls and floors because they don't absorb water or swell. For vanity tops, quartz is often better than unsealed marble because it is non-porous and resists water stains. Behind the scenes, using proper cement backer board and fluid-applied waterproofing membranes is what actually keeps your walls intact.

A quick squeegee on glass shower doors after a hot shower prevents hard water spots from building up. Use a neutral, non-acidic cleaner on grout to avoid breaking down the sealer. Running your bathroom ventilation fan during showers and leaving it on for 15 to 20 minutes afterward keeps warm steam from settling on your ceiling paint and causing mildew.

Look for proof of insurance, state licensing, and actual pictures of work done in the area. Ask questions about how they handle waterproofing behind shower tile, not just how pretty the finishes look. Reading reviews from nearby homeowners gives you a realistic idea of how clean and punctual the crew will be on a daily basis.

Cosmetic swaps like replacing light fixtures, installing a new mirror, or painting don't require permits. But if we are moving supply lines, changing electrical layouts, or modifying load-bearing wall framing, city permits and inspections are mandatory. We manage all permit filings with Jefferson Parish so your project stays fully compliant.

Yes, converting an unused tub into a low-step or curbless walk-in shower is one of the most common jobs we do. It usually requires widening the drain line to accommodate higher water output, sloping the shower pan correctly toward the drain, applying a continuous waterproof membrane, and tiling the walls to the ceiling.

With high local humidity, a weak or improperly vented bath fan leaves heavy steam trapped inside your walls. That leads to peeling paint, rusted light fixtures, and mold hiding behind wallboards. We make sure your exhaust fan is sized right for your room's cubic footage and vents directly outside your home rather than dumping moisture into an attic space.
