Home remodeling · Design-build

Bathrooms built to be looked at closely.

We design and build home renovations. Book-matched porcelain, frameless glass, and the waterproofing underneath that decides whether any of it lasts.

The finished ensuite: a frameless glass shower enclosure against a book-matched Calacatta wall, a backlit round mirror over a floating oak vanity with an integrated stone basin, and a concealed-tank toilet on the left.

A finished room is the easy part. The order you build it in is the job.

Blocking that was not set before the wall closed. A pan that was not sloped before it was tiled. A valve roughed to the wrong depth for a finish chosen three weeks later. None of it shows up on a mood board and all of it shows up in the bill.

Working design-build means the layout, the material and the rough-in get decided together, by the same people, before demolition starts.

How we work
The finished ensuite from the doorway: the glass enclosure reads as a clear box set into the room, with the book-matched wall behind it, the vanity at right and the backlit mirror reflected in the glass.
The finished second bath: a floating oak vanity with an integrated stone basin under a backlit round mirror, a chrome magnifying mirror alongside, and the tub with its rain head beyond.
The book-matched Calacatta wall in the finished ensuite running full height behind a concealed-tank toilet, with the glass enclosure and its chrome pull at right and soft grey large-format panels opposite.

02 — Before and after

Second bath · 12 May → 02 Jul 2025

The same wall, seven weeks apart.

A corner jetted tub, four-inch tile and a bullnose cap partway up the wall. What replaced it is a book-matched Calacatta panel running full height, a rectangular soaker, a rain head on a wall arm and a floating oak vanity.

Move across the photograph. The window shows the finished wall without taking the old one away — both states stay on screen at once.

See every stage
The original corner jetted tub set into a tiled surround, with a small square soap niche and a glass block accent. Four inch tile runs to a bullnose cap partway up the wall.Before — May 2025

Everything that had to happen before the room could look like that.

The wall leans toward your cursor. It runs left to right in build order, from demolition through to the finished rooms — click any frame to open it full size.

04 — What we do

Design and construction, one contract

Design

Layout, materials and fixtures resolved on paper before demolition starts, so the scope stops changing once the walls are open.

Build

Demolition, framing, plumbing and electrical rough-in, waterproofing, tile and finish carpentry, run by the people who drew it.

One contract

No gap between the drawing and the crew for a problem to fall into. The same people from first measurement to final adjustment.
