Bathroom Remodeling in Crestline

One primary bath, gutted to the framing, with the shower closed in glass so the daylight carries.

We have finished one primary bath in Crestline, and we will describe it that way rather than claiming a body of work here. It went to the framing and came back in white subway tile, white marble, and chrome, with the shower closed in clear glass instead of a wall so the daylight reaches the whole room.

What We See in Crestline Houses

Crestline is two neighborhoods wearing one name. Cottages, Tudors, and bungalows were laid out around the golf course from 1911, and nearly a third of what stands on those same streets was built since 2000. The front elevation will not tell you which one you own, and it changes the job completely. In the older houses a primary bath is a fitting problem, with two sinks, a real shower, and a closet to place inside a plan drawn in the twenties around plaster, cast iron, and a staircase that is not moving. In a 1980s original it is a builder-grade room with space to take back.

The Bathrooms Crestline Asks Us For

Primary baths are most of what we are asked about. Small bathrooms follow, because the interwar houses were built with baths sized for one, and hall and kids baths come up wherever a family is sharing a room that was plumbed for a single bathroom and no upstairs laundry.

Why Crestline Homeowners Choose Us

The first useful thing we do in Crestline is work out which decade you actually own, because that answer sets the budget more than any selection does. A 1990s renovation often left the supply lines fine and the venting improvised, or moved a wall without moving what runs inside it. We look before we quote.

Bathroom Remodel Questions in Crestline

Is Crestline a historic district?

No, and several individual houses are landmarked anyway, so it is an address question rather than a neighborhood one. We check yours before we plan anything that touches the outside.

What will you find behind the walls?

It depends entirely on which era your house belongs to. In the interwar houses we plan for plaster and cast iron. In an eighties house we are more often undoing a nineties renovation that moved a wall without moving the plumbing inside it.
